CMMS and maintenance software market overview

CMMS and maintenance software - requirements, selection and current market overview

CMMS (Computerised Maintenance Management Systems) and maintenance software are an important tool in everyday operations and support a modern maintenance organisation in managing its daily tasks. Today, condition and prognosis-based maintenance strategies require continuous monitoring of technical parameters and dynamic adjustment of maintenance activities. While simple, table-based information management was sufficient in the past, today learning decision heuristics must also be integrated into the maintenance system.

Requirements and selection criteria for CMMS / maintenance software

Maintenance strategy

  • Possibilities for individual definition of the maintenance strategy, taking into account failure behaviour, safety requirements and commercial framework conditions
  • Integration of sensors for process and performance monitoring and other environmental data
  • Monitoring and evaluation of reliability parameters and ways to analyse the effectiveness of improvement measures

Reporting, Audit and Compliance Management

  • Compliance support
  • Management reporting and clear and visually presented reports
  • Evaluation of key performance indicators for budget and cost control
  • Monitoring of procedural requirements

User-friendliness and operating concept

  • Efficient workflows and fast system response
  • Easy planning and scheduling of work orders
  • Easy management and assignment of essential maintenance documents (work orders, maintenance history and maintenance plans, maintenance reports)

Resource management and capacity management

  • Management of human resources
  • Tool management
  • Integration of third-party providers and external service companies
  • Spare parts inventory management

Equipment and asset management

  • General unit information, relevant drawings and supplementary documentation
  • Change and life cycle management (repairs conversions ...)
  • Identification with barcode, RFID or NFC
  • Management of test equipment (ensuring that only calibrated test equipment is used)

Other criteria

  • Support and training offered by the manufacturer
  • Simple data transfer from legacy systems
  • Interfaces to third-party systems, especially ERP system

A detailed description of current market trends and requirements can be found in our guide Maintenance Software and CMMS.
