Planning and Completing Work Orders in a CMMS – A Smooth Process
See how a CMMS simplifies the entire workflow: from reporting a fault, through planning and automatic task hand-off, to tracking progress.
What Does Planning Look Like with the SimplyMobile CMMS?
What does planning look like with our system? A clear process – from report to completion. No chaos. No unnecessary clicks.
- Reporting – a technician or production worker reports a fault, a part that needs reconditioning or an upcoming inspection directly from the shop floor using a phone or tablet.
- Planning – the report reaches a planner, who sets a completion date, creates specific tasks, assigns the relevant departments or teams and can quickly request a specialist's opinion without relying on email.
- Work order hand-off – ready tasks are sent to technicians with a clear description, a list of required materials, an estimated completion time and a priority.
- Completion – the technician carries out the work order step by step from a mobile device, while the system automatically records labor time and task progress.
The Entire Process Translates into Real Operational Benefits
- Full visibility of all reports and work orders
- Fast response thanks to a transparent workflow
- Seamless collaboration between departments
This is what effective maintenance planning should look like.
