Heavy machinery and plant are generally built with superior durability in mind, but even so, they do still degrade over time. Worn parts and breakdowns are inevitable, but with regularly scheduled and targeted preventative maintenance the bigger problem of lost productivity can be minimized if not completely avoided. Yes, accidents happen but in a serious production environment, there is no excuse for lax or non-existent preventative maintenance planning.

So how do you optimally plan your preventative maintenance schedule? What things do you need to do to ensure that business operations can continue with minimal disruption while key elements in the production chain are offline? Well, that’s where the combination of Sage 300 and Technisoft Service Manager comes in.

The Advanced Maintenance add-on module for Technisoft Service Manager provides you with a comprehensive toolbox of features to allow accurate forecasting of future parts and labor requirements with incredible efficiency. Whether your servicing is based on vehicle mileage, the passing of time, or a combination of both or even other metrics, Advanced Maintenance will help you always be one step ahead. Although not required to take full advantage of our preventative maintenance system, Service Manager can support up to fifteen tiers of cross level dependencies should your planning schemes need such a fine granularity of control.

For ad-hoc and emergency repair servicing, Technisoft Service Manager will always meet your information requirements. You can use work tickets to record costs for all labor and parts as necessary, and if desired all financial data can be associated with individual equipment assets to build detailed asset servicing histories. On top of this, you can make notations, attach photos and even insert purchase orders straight into the document - fully integrated with the powerful Sage 300 purchase ordering system, of course.

No doubt managing plants and heavy machinery requires considerable planning and organization. Technisoft Service Manager is an invaluable solution to help bring this to reality, and you can rest assured that it will always give you the information you need to keep your wheels of industry turning.
