What it does:
Serves as mission control for hotel maintenance: The maintenance management system centralizes all data and actions related to hotel maintenance in one digital hub. Staff members can submit and assign work orders, schedule preventative maintenance, manage inventory, and analyze maintenance-related data all within the system.
Tracks maintenance activities: All maintenance work, inventory levels, serial numbers, and more are logged in a database to make reporting and analysis possible, giving you a better understanding of the state of your building.
Facilitates preventative maintenance: Set up recurring work orders based on time or usage so you never forget preventative maintenance tasks, which helps you extend the life of equipment and appliances.
Decreases operational costs: By streamlining manual tasks like submitting and organizing work orders, a CMMS can help your maintenance staff do their jobs more efficiently and in less time. In addition, the CMMS helps you avoid costly corrective maintenance, downtime, and safety issues.
Improves the guest experience: No guest wants to walk into their room and find a broken air conditioning unit, so a CMMS helps maintenance teams stay ahead of potential guest experience issues by running a tight preventative maintenance schedule and ensuring work orders get actioned.
Work order management: Say goodbye to paper work order slips; a CMMS digitizes the entire work order process, from submitting the initial work order to pushing it through to completion. A simple digital interface allows staff members to add photos and descriptions in just a few seconds. With a modern work order process, you can ensure accountability and accuracy.
Parts and inventory management: A digital record of your storeroom inventory helps you ensure you always have enough stock and reminds you to reorder when necessary.
Safety and compliance: Never worry about another inspection by letting the system keep digital copies of your documentation handy and by reminding you to perform routine safety checks.
Preventative maintenance: Automated preventative maintenance reminders will help you stay ahead of breakage and downtime. These reminders can be set on a cadence based on time or usage.
Mobile-friendliness: Your maintenance team members aren’t always behind a desk, so your CMMS must have a good mobile option, like an app or a mobile-friendly web interface.
Reporting: Gain a deeper understanding of your hotel’s work order volumes, staff performance, and maintenance costs with the system’s analytics module.
Integrations: Connect your maintenance software to your hotel’s property management system, building management system, or guest communication platform to enable a seamless flow of data between hotel departments. While ensuring your maintenance tasks are streamlined, don’t overlook enhancing your housekeeping efficiency. Explore the best hotel housekeeping app solutions to manage your tasks seamlessly.
Getting up and running with your hotel maintenance system doesn’t need to be stressful. After you’ve chosen a system and created your account, you’ll need to create digital “records” of your hotel areas (like each guestroom and public space) and all assets you have on-site (like water heaters and air conditioners). You can create records for all of your current parts and inventory, and you’ll want to create accounts for all of your maintenance staff members too.
Once all of your hotel data is in the system, you can begin using it to create work orders and set preventative maintenance schedules. Preventative maintenance can be on a simple weekly or monthly cadence, or you can set up triggers based on usage, which may be more accurate. Before fully rolling out your new CMMS, it’s also a good idea to conduct some training with staff members who will be using the system on a daily basis so they can use it efficiently. Your software vendor will have resources available for help with training, onboarding, and troubleshooting should you need it.
