Problem Statement
The group was carrying out scheduled maintenance operations and sudden repair of breakdowns by storing the data on operations in an excel sheet. This approach worked out well during the initial years.
But with the increase in the number of stores at each location, the excel-based approach failed to scale up. Tracing the data on repairs, planning, and executing preventive maintenance schedules became frustrating and time-consuming.
Many a time the managers-in-charge of maintenance forgot the month in which services of equipment were due. The organization wished to track the availability and consumption of spares in real-time and alert them on nearing Planned Preventive Maintenance schedules.
They wished to digitalize their entire maintenance operations as a run-to-failure approach proved to be expensive in the long run.
Solutions by InnoMaint
The maintenance solution provided by InnoMaint automated the workflows for PPM and Breakdown modules. The maintenance manager and technicians who were long used to the old traditional techniques felt fresh and excited as they could feel the difference from the early stages. The work handover between maintenance teams was smooth and each technician was empowered with clear work instructions accessible via the mobile app. The entire team felt rejuvenated. Mobile alerts reminded technicians of the work orders assigned to them. The application provided a centralized view of the availability of spares, closing stock on each transaction, and alerted stakeholders when each item reached minimum re-order levels.
Results
✔ PPM compliance increased with prompt reminders and escalations.
✔ The management was able to measure the work duration with accurate time stamps on work.
✔ Organization-wide visibility of spares helped in faster procurement of those in low stock.
✔ The count of Breakdowns decreased significantly, saving unnecessary costs.
