CMMS is an integrated set of computer programs and data files used to efficiently govern the massive amounts of data generated by maintenance, inventory control, and purchasing. With a CMMS in place, you will effectively manage both the human and capital resources in your plant. Now you can: trace materials used and track their costs; maintain optimum, cost-effective inventory levels; better utilize labor; automatically create maintenance histories; and make maintenance cost data readily accessible in a variety of formats.
