OMCS International Launches PM Builder
PM Builder is an entry-level maintenance and failure analysis package designed for creating comprehensive maintenance strategies from scratch or building on existing plant maintenance plans. This highly functional software targets organisations that feel they have more breakdowns than they should, and consider that proper preventive and predictive maintenance is one of the keys to break that cycle.
PM Builder simplifies the development and management of your maintenance strategy. Its primary domain is geared towards the creation of common sense strategies but for advanced users, it conforms to internationally recognized systems such as FMEA, PMO2000™ and RCM. PM Builder has an inbuilt module full of flexibility that conforms to RCM Standard SAE JA 1011.
PM Builder can be readily used as stand-alone system or can be integrated with most popular computerized maintenance management systems.
PM Builder is very affordably priced. Pricing is designed to suit any size business that needs to improve its PM systems in a fast and efficient manner.
Benefits
The prime benefits of implementing PM Builder are:
- Inexpensive entry level application for businesses with little or no existing PM Program.
- Rapid PM development using a consistent and structured format output to useable documents in a variety of formats including customisable PDF checklists and work packages.
- Maximised maintenance staff effectiveness. Comprehensive Preventive Maintenance programs are essential to the productivity of personnel and physical assets. Our experience shows that the maintenance personnel at many sites have become at least 20% more productive when deploying a comprehensive PM program.
- Increased plant capacity. Independent studies (and our experience) show that in organisations that are more reactive than they should be, the application of focussed PM and some defect elimination reduces maintenance related downtime by half.
- Maximised effectiveness and return from investment in a CMMS. There is little point in churning our work orders for PMs that are vague, don’t add value or lack coverage.
- Minimised maintenance expenditure. Maintenance costs are minimised as a result of a move to a more planned maintenance environment. If you are in control of your maintenance, the costs will look after themselves.
- Improved safety and environmental performance. It goes without saying, less reactive maintenance means a safer work environment and reduced exposure to environmental catastrophe.
Key Features
- Easy to use process oriented screens that can be used by the experienced user and the novice.
- Maintenance tasks linked to failure modes and equipment hierarchies that can be grouped within the software into schedules and exported into data systems or stand alone documents that can be linked to most modern CMMS systems. This eliminates the need for double handling of data resulting in a single source controlled data system.
- Extensive library function for building standard equipment strategies and drag and drop cloning out to appropriate locations in the asset register. Update the master and update clone function. Changing the maintenance strategies on hundreds of like components has never been easier.
- Three step process of create, approve and implement allowing recommendations to be approved before implementation.
- Multi user or stand alone capability.
- Equipment hierarchies can be imported from Excel or create the equipment register with one easy right click of the mouse Copy and paste, drag and drop functions make this task a breeze.
-
As well as custom inbuilt reports that can be exported into Excel, the Report Builder allows users to create their own reports and spreadsheets. If you don’t like the export or report… change it. If you want a new one…create it. It’s that easy.
- Dynamic hierarchical or standard work schedules that can be created in a flash using the filter option combined with duplicate schedule.
- Schedules can be posted as a trial before tasks are approved.
- Failure modes can be created from structured lists created and attached to component types or free text for added speed.
- Fully customisable dropdown menus – Intervals, Trades, Corrective Action etc.
- Structured Failure Mode definitions with Importing and Exporting
-
User permissions can be allocated by area.
- Auto correct customisation via built-in utility means you can enter in a short code and replace it with standardised text.
Optional Extras
- Users can purchase fully developed failure mode libraries for a range of common component types.
- Enterprise Data Collection Module (EDA) to assist in plotting your success and identifying weaknesses in the strategy or equipment design.
- Reliability Investigation Management System (RIMSys) Module to keep track of your RCA or informal improvement activities.
- Inventory Cash Release (ICR®) Spares Assessing Module
Language Capability
PM Builder is available in English, Spanish, Chinese, Bahasa and Russian. Other languages can be configured within two weeks.
The Bottom Line
If you want to quickly get your PM Built and working, then PM Builder is the tool that allows you to take the first step. Once you have a baseline PM in place, you can continue to use PM Builder or upgrade to our master system, PMO2000™ and our full Reliability Assurance package developed for professional Reliability Engineers.
