In combination, these software features and workflow benefits provide companies with an effective data tracking system that closely monitors key costs centers and drastically reduces the amount of paperwork required to capture mobile information.
Organizations need a mobile field maintenance system that will work in tandem with current workflow processes. Work orders, job costs, and maintenance history need to be captured effectively without extensive and redundant data entry!
A Tool for Seamless Data Management
DataSplice has developed a Mobile CMMS solution that enables all of these important job tasks and more. Techs just use a handheld to access critical work order information; materials and tools required, equipment history, failure reporting, etc., and then enter pertinent information for actions completed including; labor time, materials used, failure reporting, or description of work completed.
This process enables companies to accurately monitor productivity for an individual or team, and relay that information to the corresponding necessary departments. No more dreaded piles of data entry paperwork! In comparison, most other remote CMMS systems on the market still require manual data entry of field work data.
The best part of the DataSplice system is that it utilizes an all-in-one interface, making it easy for workers to work extensively with all types of data without having to learn several different computer applications.
Troubleshooting Is More Accurate
With DataSplice, companies also empower their staff to do more effective troubleshooting in the field. With the ability to easily access a work order history and maintenance records, it helps workers to more accurately determine what might be the source of a problem. Managers then can effectively contact the necessary emergency crews to manage a situation.
Barcodes also make for undeniable accuracy in the field. The DataSplice handhelds operate on a barcode labeling system. Workers scan equipment to validate they are working on the right equipment, and access key data screens for proper maintenance. This feature also encourages workers to create corrective orders in the field that normally would not be captured.
Data Flow for Work Order Management
The DataSplice PDA Work Order Client uses one main interface that can be configured to deliver a current work list of all work orders assigned to a user.
After selecting a work order, the Work Details view provides basic information work data and offers a simple one-button navigation for all reporting screens including: Job Plan, Actual Labor, Failure Reporting, Work Order, Equipment Long Descriptions, and Parts.
The View Navigation can easily be configured to emulate a company's workflow process. New work orders and follow-up work orders can be created in the field with ease. All associated data recording fields, such as meter readings and asset attribute values can be accessed. Features such as vertical display, multiple dynamic value lists, and auto-population of fields minimize data entry requirements.
