Six month pay back on cmms

Huntapac Produce, grower, packer and distributor of high-quality root vegetables has reported full return on investment within six months of going live with the computerised maintenance management system (CMMS) Mainsaver, from Spidex Software.

Having created a database of the company's plant assets, the implementation team attached new preventative maintenance schedules against each one and then made the entire system available to engineers and production staff alike by loading Mainsaver on to touchscreen PCs housed in stainless steel kiosks in the engineering workshop and out in the production area.

Almost immediate effects included a threefold uplift in the number of recorded maintenance activities and a huge increase in the percentage of maintenance work completed.
