Maintenance management covers a wide area since asset management and regular maintenance is required for a variety of assets. A maintenance software program is not only useful in locations with a lot of machines (e.g. manufacturing plants, mining operations, etc.). In addition it is useful where you have a lot of facilities needing maintenance (hotel, resorts, restaurants) as well as those with other equipment (e.g. utilities, vehicle fleets, farm equipment). Lots of work orders, so you can see that work order management becomes essential. Does it make sense to look for specialized software based on your industry?

Maintenance request software may seem like a rather specialized requirement! However, if one is responsible for managing maintenance at a large facility or industrial plant we will be handling a lot of requests for maintenance work.

Do you have a lot of equipment to maintain? Is reactive maintenance aka breakdown maintenance dominating your day? 🙁 Want to create a good preventive maintenance plan to reduce equipment breakdowns and complaints from users and management?
When you have to manage maintenance on many equipment you really must use a maintenance management program aka CMMS software to create your equipment maintenance plan. There may be dependencies between equipment that makes it hard to plan for.
For example it works better to plan maintenance on all equipment in the same assembly line at the same time rather than shutting down multiple lines to do maintenance on one or two equipment in each line.
