What should you evaluate?
Maintenance software supports the assets that production depends on. Start with the maintenance team’s real request-to-completion workflow and the relationship to production schedules. A process tag left blank means fit was not classified, not that a product cannot serve that process.
Asset structure
A line, machine and replaceable component may need different histories.
Ask: Can we preserve our equipment hierarchy and asset identifiers during import?Preventive work
Calendar, meter and condition-triggered tasks have different data requirements.
Ask: Demonstrate the triggers we actually use and the required data connection.Technician execution
A planned task is useful only when technicians can complete it reliably.
Ask: What works offline, and how are failed synchronization and corrections handled?Spare-parts history
Availability and consumption need to relate to the work performed.
Ask: Show a repair with unavailable stock, a parts issue and the resulting cost history.Production handoff
Maintenance windows and production commitments need coordination.
Ask: Which system owns the shutdown window, and how does a changed plan propagate?Exit and implementation
Import, user permissions, training and export can dominate adoption.
Ask: Provide an example export of assets, completed work, attachments and relationships.Sources behind these evaluation criteria
