Über mich

With implementation failure prices ranging from 50% to 80%, it's no wonder that many may
think about "CMMS" a four-letter word. In my encounter, I've noticed several failed Computerized Maintenance Management
Program (CMMS) implementations or extremely slow implementations (a number of you are
nodding in agreement... ). Furthermore, I have
seldom observed an organization robustly making use of their CMMS; most are using just a feature or two of these powerful
systems. It really is like making use of just the bottle opener in your Leatherman - it can do so much more; couple
that with duct tape and also you are unstoppable...

There are lots of causes for failed implementations or under-utilized
CMMS. Below are a couple of in the most common that I've seen, of which I am certain you are able to relate.

Incorrect System for the
Job
How many of you are currently making use of your IT department's
work ticket method to handle your perform orders? Okay, place your hands down. Which is all also frequent.
IT Systems as well as the like are good for managing service requests,
however they fall way quick on offering the company tool that you simply want
inside a CMMS.

Funds to buy It, but No Time or Help to Implement It
How several of you are within your ump-teen month of implementing
your CMMS? Going on years, maybe... Nevertheless operating to
get your gear and/or maintenance schedules loaded into the method
- within your spare time... Don't worry, you might be not alone.
Unfortunately, this is a frequent state of most CMMS implementations.
You finally get your manager's approval to get a CMMS and possibly even some training,
but you do not get any aid with setup or additional administrative support
required to implement and preserve a CMMS. The truth of it is, the delayed
or failed start of the CMMS will make it each of the
more tough for you personally to request further funding
since you didn't do effectively with what they already invested -
a double whammy... You can not do it alone; you will need assist!

Old, Slow Method
There are some that implemented a CMMS years ago, but haven't been in a position to upgrade it
with time (possibly simply because they customized it as well much producing upgrades pricey) or the custom software
development company program is no longer supported (at
some point that Windows 95 machine will die...

). It is also tough to upgrade since so much has been invested inside the old system and you usually do not want to shed the information - plus modify is
tough. But you as well as your organization should advance using the occasions - there is certainly far better
out there.

Homegrown
How numerous of you couldn't get management's approval to purchase a CMMS so you constructed 1 oneself?
How flat is your forehead from beating it against the wall attempting
to turn out to be an Excel or Access guru? Yep, I've been there also...
I have observed some quite good ones, I may add.
Nevertheless, as facility managers, our jobs usually are not to be database administrators or IT gurus (albeit that hat does get thrown at us usually).
We've to pull ourselves out of those weeds so that we are able
to concentrate around the strategic, company initiatives of our facility
organization. I am all for organic, but now using a CMMS...

Never Know What You do not Know
Lastly, lack of understanding any much better is most likely the
most typical cause for failed or under-utilized CMMS installations.
Most do not understand how potent a CMMS is or how it could be employed to handle day-to-day operations and supply key enterprise info for managing your facilities and upper management.
Resolving this particular difficulty is the purpose I'm such a proponent
for our conferences and IFMA's instruction courses.
