Maintenance software for machine service: work orders, hours and machine history in one system<\/h1>\n

A machine arrives for overhaul. Your job coordinator logs it in, creates a service order and divides the work across the workshop. But how many hours are already scheduled for next week? Does the team have capacity? And which parts were used the last time this type of machine came in?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

With Simple-Simon’s maintenance software your job coordinator has this at a glance. He sees the workload per person, links hours and materials to the service order, and automatically builds a history per machine all synchronised with Exact Online.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Simple-Simon is built for machine maintenance and overhaul companies: from the job sheets app<\/a><\/span> for the technician in the workshop to capacity forecasting, machine history per serial number and direct ERP integration<\/p>\n

What is maintenance software?<\/h2>\n

Maintenance software is a digital system for managing work orders, time tracking, material usage and machine history for your maintenance team. You create service orders per machine, link hours and consumed parts to each order, and automatically build a maintenance history per asset.<\/p>\n

For machine maintenance and overhaul companies, maintenance software goes beyond a calendar. You manage capacity per employee, track the status of every work order in real time, and connect everything to your ERP system so invoicing is always accurate.<\/p>\n

Maintenance software is also known as CMMS software (Computerised Maintenance Management System) or work order software. Simple-Simon is purpose-built for field service and workshop organisations in maintenance, overhaul and repair.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/i> Read more<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/i> Read less<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\t

Plan machine maintenance and monitor capacity<\/h2>\n

You don’t want to discover mid-week that there are more work orders open than your team can handle. With Simple-Simon you can see per day and per week how many hours are scheduled across open work orders versus the available capacity of your technicians.<\/p>\n

Via the digital planning board<\/a>, you can see each employee’s workload for the coming period. Is someone overloaded while a colleague has spare capacity? You move the work order and the time tracking<\/a> follows automatically.<\/p>\n

For job coordinators managing multiple ongoing overhauls, Simple-Simon also provides a longer-term view: which machines are scheduled in the coming months and how much capacity do you have available?<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/i> Read more<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/i> Read less<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\t

Job sheet software: log hours and materials per service order<\/h2>\n

Every machine that comes in for overhaul or maintenance gets its own work order in Simple-Simon. Technicians log their hours per work order directly via the job sheet app<\/a> on their phone or tablet in the workshop.<\/p>\n

Parts and materials per order<\/h3>\n

As well as hours, your technician records the parts, consumables and materials used via the material usage<\/a> overview. This means you can see exactly what was used per order and never miss an invoice line.<\/p>\n

Post-calculation: quoted hours vs actual hours<\/h3>\n

Did you quote a fixed price for an overhaul? Via the reports<\/a> module you compare the quoted hours against the actual hours spent per order. This lets you spot in time which jobs are running over budget.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/i> Read more<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/i> Read less<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\t
