Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS)
Frequently Asked Question About CMMS
What can a CMMS system do for my plant or facility?
A CMMS system can create automatic maintenance orders; log equipment usage, downtime and other events; track maintenance history and parts inventories, and create detailed reports on every aspect of facility equipment assets.
What is the difference between CMMS, CAFM and FMS systems?
There is really very little difference between these.
