When using mobile EAM software, companies and individual users can expect the following.

Seamless Order Management

Mobile EAM software, as well as mobile phones, have entirely replaced paper-based maintenance processes. Essentially, work orders are no longer generated with pen & paper/spreadsheets. Instead, a work order is now dispatched to technicians wherever they are (even in remote locations), meaning that workers avoid redundant trips to the office.

With mobile EAM, any work order can be generated, approved, closed, and amended. EAM software also means that all relevant team members will have access to any changes to the current work order.

Effortless Notification Management

Just as with work order management, EAM software and EAM mobile applications can effortlessly manage essential notifications for your office team and technicians.

With this mobile EAM feature, management can send notifications to technicians on new and updated work orders.

On the other hand, when technicians discover a new issue in the field, they can immediately send a new notification to create or update a work order. A feature like this is essential for facilitating communication across the whole company.

Schedule Your Tasks

Mobile EAM is essential to schedule tasks that are related to maintenance operations. For example, with mobile EAM, you can select when jobs and work orders must begin and assign the relevant technicians to these jobs. Conveniently, with mobile EAM, management can schedule these tasks at the press of a button.

You can also significantly streamline processes related to maintenance planning with mobile EAM. For example, checking for parts availability and assigning equipment for a work order can be completed from cellphones and other devices. Again, this eliminates the need for extensive paperwork; costs can also be lowered as technicians will no longer need to return to the office to await new work orders.

Real-time Tracking

Management can also track tasks in progress and calculate how long maintenance tasks take to complete.

Real-time tracking involves management extensively. For example, managers can introduce changes to the maintenance process using the data on how long maintenance tasks take to complete. With these changes in place, companies can lower costs further and complete maintenance tasks with greater efficiency.

Fast Reporting

Mobile EAM enables management to monitor how long maintenance tasks take to complete. Using this data, management can continuously improve maintenance processes. An improvement in how organizations perform maintenance work can benefit both technicians and customers!

Beneficial Impact on Asset Performance

Perhaps the most important benefit of mobile EAM is the impact these solutions have on the performance of an organization’s assets. For example, when technicians service assets, they can access important asset information, such as previous maintenance work; when they have completed their current task, they can add more details, too.

Additionally, with a feature such as ‘Mobile Operator Rounds’, technicians can capture sensor data from assets and equipment as they are on the move. This means that asset data and equipment data are delivered faster. It also means that management can utilize this data to plan long-term asset management operations for the organization.
