Workflow visibility: Dashboards and visualizations can be tuned so staff can assess status and progress virtually in real time. Maintenance teams can rapidly discover where an asset is, what it needs, who should work on it and when. Automation: Automating reoccurring tasks such as ordering parts, replenishing inventories, scheduling shifts, compiling information for audits and other administrative duties helps save time, reduce errors, improve productivity, and focus teams on maintenance activities., Streamlined 'processes: Work orders can be viewed and tracked by all parties involved (citizens and staff). Details can be shared across technology platforms and mobile devices. Managing field workforces: CMMS can unify and deploy teams across multiple disciplines so that the correct team is assigned at the beginning and false starts are avoided. Preventive maintenance: CMMS data enables maintenance operations to move from a reactive to a proactive approach. Data derived from daily activities deliver insights into system and asset performance to inform preventive measures and trigger alerts before assets fail or underperform. Health, safety and environment: In line with compliance management, CMMS offers central reporting for safety, health and environmental concerns. The objectives are to reduce risk and maintain a safe operating environment. CMMS can provide investigations to analyze recurring incidents or defects, incident and corrective action traceability, and process change management. Asset status: Centralized information in the CMMS database enables teams to call up when an asset was purchased, when maintenance was performed, frequency of breakdowns, parts used, efficiency ratings and other records. DISCUSSION OSD enlisted GHD Consultants to evaluate the latest version of MaintStar Version 15 and make a recommendation on its ability to continue to provide value to the City and be worthy of continued investment. GHD has worked with over 30 CMMS solutions and has a clear understanding of standards in the industry and the features most valuable to OSD. GHD received multiple in-depth demonstrations of the new MaintStar system and compared them to other major CMMS platforms. GHD concluded that MaintStar Version 15 is on par with and in some cases better than, the top CMMS products on the market today. GHD recommended that OSD continue with MaintStar and implement Version 15 because of its ease of use, mobility, and flexibility. Some of the system enhancements that the City will benefit from include: Flexible search functions and reporting capabilities so staff can easily create custom, repeatable reports that can be run as frequently as needed, saving the City time and money.
