FTMaintenance At A Glance
Product Overview
FasTrak’s CMMS software FTMaintenance incorporates the goal of “automating everything”, such as automating work order creation, report generation, and equipment downtime calculation. Predictive and preventative maintenance work orders are automatically generated based on up-to-the-minute data of equipment and assets. Maintenance task automation leads reduces data entry errors, improves productivity, and reduces unplanned equipment downtime. Other benefits of FTMaintenance is that it is scalable and users can customize specific workflows based on the needs of their businesses.
FTMaintenance includes several maintenance features, which are detailed in the Features section below. However, it offers optional modules such as:
- Equipment Alarming and Monitoring – This PLC alarm monitoring software tracks the condition of the equipment and alerts the users for any maintenance issues.
- Service Request – Users can submit maintenance service request via the Web browser. The request form can also be customized and notifications are automatically sent when requests are fulfilled.
- Mobile Capability – Users can create and edit work orders, get purchasing information, and update inventory all from a mobile device.
- Barcode – This module allows users to scan inventory and purchasing information via a barcode scanner.
- Multi-Site – Users can access maintenance information on multiple FTMaintenance databases – one benefit of this is to reduce the dependence on IT for information.
- Audit Trail – Users can ensure that the maintenance procedures are safely done, as well as verify edits to work orders.
In the latest version of FTMaintenance (Version 10.5.1, released December 2016), there are several upgrades such as:
- Improved performance of the Asset Tree
- Addition of a self-refreshing dashboard containing critical maintenance alerts, notifications, and key performance indicators
- Enhanced mobile capability, including the ability to look up equipment service histories and create demand maintenance work orders from internet-enabled mobile devices
