Discover our very first podcast, in which Anthony Blanchard, our maintenance expert, explains why you should switch your maintenance to a CMMS software and what advantages you can get from it!

Why and how to transfer the management of your maintenance of excel files to a CMMS solution?

“Hello, my name is Anthony and I am a maintenance expert at Mobility Work. Today, I am going to explain to you why and how to change the management of the maintenance of your equipment and infrastructures from Excel files to a CMMS solution.

For many years, you may have been used to using an Excel file to plan the maintenance of your machine park.

Setting up this file is inexpensive and very fast, at least at the very beginning of your project. But when your company grows and evolves, you must guarantee the coordination of new technicians or even integrate new machines! And that's where things get complicated:

1. First, your current management system is sufficient to transmit your statistics to your management, of course. But that time is over as maintenance services have become real centers of profit and no longer of expenses.
2. Then, you must integrate your new resources or equipment, you will certainly use macros, or even dynamic cross-tables. Even worse, your file is Full, in this case you need to create a second one. However, you will not be able to combine the two tables in order to analyze your statistics and KPIs, such as the rate of completion or your percentage of curative versus preventive maintenance. By the way, these two indicators are the first elements that an auditor will ask you to obtain your certification.
3. Thirdly, your management will then set a goal for you to achieve results. But nothing is lost: with our maintenance management platform, the integration of your equipment, maintenance plans, and intervention histories remains simple and fast. Thanks to our import framework, we can send your data en masse and thus respond in a short time to the requests of your hierarchy and the dreaded auditor.

In conclusion, if you want to take the plunge, do not hesitate to contact our team, we will be able to support you in this essential change for your business.”
