How To Get The Most Value From CMMS Software And Janitorial Software

Submitted by John Harris on 03/13/2009

The primary goal for most managers is to minimize the time they spend in CMMS Software and Janitorial Software Systems.

Utilizing highly structured data and connecting work directly to individual employees can dramatically improve the value of these systems.

CMMS Software

Computerized Maintenace Management Systems (CMMS) have been available for many years, but until the last four years, they were primarily PC based.

Most of the best systems available today are Web Based systems, and employ instant messaging along with employee performance tracking to help supervisors manage facilities.

We have found that the implementation of the CMMS will determine how effective the software will be for most situations.  To improve the implementation, the best option is to work on the data set to standardize location structure, equipment names, tenant profiles, and employee profiles as much as possible.

This makes it easy for workers to use the system on a daily basis, and keeps their frustration level as low as possible.

 

Janitorial Software

Unlike CMMS, there have not been many systems that integrate all operations functions together for Janitorial Software.  The best systems manage Periodic Work, Service Requests, Quality, Employees and Inventory.

However, like CMMS products, a highly ordered implementation can be a strong long term benefit to daily workers.

Each facility will have their own specific needs, and a system that is highly flexible will be able to meet all of them for each individual customer.

A large concern for many facilities is whether their people will use the system once it is installed and working properly.  The way we have found to overcome this situation is to work directly with the individual supervisors to show them what's in it for them.

Once this has been correctly completed, most managers are excited to get started due to the significant improvement the systems make to their daily work.
