Blue Mountain RAM

It needs training but can optimize work orders

Pros

This software helps organize work orders and provides a central hub for monitoring equipment and facility status. It allows you to track recurring issues, ensuring they get properly addressed. By identifying frequent breakdowns, it also aids in making smarter purchasing decisions. The ability to assign priorities to work orders helps distinguish between urgent tasks and routine maintenance.

Cons

This software requires extensive training and the initial implementation can be challenging. Many users struggled with assigning tasks correctly at first. It would help if the fields had clearer descriptions so users know exactly what information to enter. Otherwise, managers end up having to review and edit each order to ensure it's assigned properly.

Great solution for managing calibration tasks

Pros

A great tool for managing the Calibration Maintenance Program. It allows you to set up assets, define ranges and set due dates according to your needs. The system runs queries that can be used to develop metrics and reports for the department. It also generates reports for each calibration performed and allows users to create, schedule and route work orders for review and closure.

Cons

It has room for improvement. It's not very easy and requires significant training. However, with regular use and refresher sessions, navigation becomes much easier. The software can also be slow at times, and reports may take a while to generate.

Excellent system for handling maintenance requests

Pros

Blue Mountain streamlined maintenance requests that were previously managed through emails, which often got lost and were unreliable for tracking.

Cons

I haven't found anything I dislike about Blue Mountain.
