Saving Money With CMMS and todayʼs customers want mobile, multi-faceted solutions. “Going forward we can expect to see sys-tems further integrated with location-based services and improved asset tracking tech-nologies, like radio frequency identification (RFID),” says Lanier. “Also, weʼll see CMMS application components available on increasingly-intelligent smart phones and other mobile devices.” When it comes to whether or not to buy a CMMS package, the debate should be brief. Today, there are very few people sitting on the fence, says Davies. Instead, there are two camps. One camp is recognizing the need for optimization, in order to cut costs, retain customers, help avoid lawsuits, etc. The other camp is not willing to invest and make the call to inquire about CMMS, and would rather wait. “But those calls will never be made,” warns Davies, “because those are the com-panies that are not going to be around.” CM CMMS Testimonials The following testimonial excerpts are from actual CMMS customers and are provided by CleanTelligent Software. “We were able to reduce our staff by two full-time posi-tions, providing us a savings of $48,000 per year in labor costs ever since.” – BearCom Building Services “Everyone at St. Moritz that is involved in customer service, quality control, management and providing services is more effective.” – St. Moritz Building Services “The productivity of our operations personnel has increased by 25-30 percent.” – Anago of Chicago “Our employee productivity has increased by 50-60 percent.” – Dale Rogers Training Center “Since implementing [CMMS], we have seen an increase in employee productivity and management time is more focused.” – Goodwill Industries of Kentucky “I can quickly review clients, employees and performance status throughout the entire company from my computer.” – FMI Services Group Are you in the dark when it comes to finding equipment and supplies? • Search by product category to get an overview of available options • Search by brand or company name to locate your favorite product or vendor Let us guide you to the resources you want.
