CMMS
Implementation
The last ten years in industry has seen the proliferation of
Computerised Maintenance Management Systems, CMMS. There is now in
excess of 500 CMMS packages available world wide, not to mention
huge integrated systems combining all facets of business from
Maintenance plans to Production Scheduling. This makes choosing and
implementing a site or business appropriate system a major task.
AMS practioners have worked with a number of major and minor CMMS
packages and are adept at assisting clients through the selection
and implementation process.
Broadly the AMS selection and
implementation process follows the following
steps
Determine the business objectives and drivers for
implementation of a system
Determine the existing business internal processes
Review a selection of CMMS packages
Select a system that most closely meets the business
requirements without customisation
Compare system processes with existing business processes
Align the processes across the business
Populate the CMMS with equipment and inventory data
Populate the CMMS with Maintenance Plan data
Commission the CMMS
It is most important during this process to
capture and align commonality between inter business function is
Finance and Maintenance so that confusion is avoided once the
system is in operation.
