Improve quality and your bottom line
Ensure everyone follows best practices and requirements for equipment reliability using factory maintenance checklists. With photo annotation and calculations in inspections, it’s easy for frontline teams to capture and share noncompliant areas, giving management a clear view of what’s happening on the floor. With all your data in one place, you can quickly pinpoint problem areas and come up with solutions before they cause bigger problems.
Improve uptime on critical equipment
Go beyond reactive repairs and keep things running smoothly with scheduled maintenance tasks that match the frequency you need. Gain a detailed overview of your assets, including history and upcoming activities. Set up automated reminders so teams are alerted when maintenance checks are due to be completed.


Efficiently manage factory assets
Establish a register of machinery and equipment used in production as part of overseeing day-to-day operations. Gain a better understanding of how they’re being used and maintained across different floors using sensors and asset location tracking devices. Keep a digital record of routine maintenance activities to refer to for future work orders and minimize equipment downtime.
Strengthen maintenance strategies
Keep tools and equipment in top condition at all times with a robust, data-backed maintenance plan. Leverage data from submitted reports and asset tracking systems to create and adjust workflows according to factory and equipment needs. Assign corrective actions based on identified issues and improve calibration for equipment maintenance.


Boost workforce competency for maintenance tasks
Ensure that workers assigned to maintenance tasks have the right knowledge and skills to carry out the best job. Provide bite-sized training modules that can easily be accessed amid busy production schedules and deliver important reminders through a digital platform. Reduce the likelihood of repeat visits by minimizing errors and encouraging collaboration across teams.
