CMMS, short for computerized maintenance management system, is exactly what it sounds like. It is a software program (computerized) that maintains a database (system) of information on the maintenance operations of an organization (maintenance management). But a CMMS is not simply about data storage. It also improves workflows and generates valuable insights to take your operations to the next level.
This system allows workers to understand what assets need maintenance and where inventory is stored. It also helps management make more informed decisions around how they spend their maintenance dollars and where to allocate their resources. A CMMS also improves your ability to adhere to compliance standards within your industry. It eliminates the complexity of notebooks and spreadsheets by organizing the information you need at your fingertips to have world-class maintenance operations.
