Solmex

What Is Solmex?

Solmex is a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) for teams that keep machinery and building equipment running. Its focus is on the equipment itself, with each asset’s record connecting reported problems to the maintenance work performed. Before deciding what needs attention next, a technician can check what happened during the last repair, and that history stays in place even when the people doing the work change. Technicians record work from a phone browser while managers follow job progress, which suits teams moving away from paper records and scattered spreadsheets. It works the same way whether the equipment sits at one location or across several sites.

What Is Solmex Best For?

The software stands out for its signed inspection PDF reports. Each completed inspection produces a document containing checklist answers, photographs, and recorded findings. The report also identifies the asset’s location and the person operating it during the inspection. Inspectors complete the checks from a phone and add their signatures to the record. Managers can review the signed document alongside the asset's inspection history. Individual findings can also be printed separately for follow-up.

How Much Does Solmex Cost?

Solmex pricing starts at $12/user/month with its Growth Plan. Other plans the platform offers are:

• Starter: $0/month (Free)
• Business: $42/user/month
• Enterprise: Custom pricing

Customers can also get a 30-day free trial without requiring a credit card.

Organizations may also need to account for these estimated additional costs beyond the base subscription that are common with similar software solutions, based on industry benchmarks:

• Custom Integrations: Generally, around $1,500 – $30,000+/integration for connections requiring custom development
• Durable QR Asset Labels: Typically around $80 – $250/100 labels, depending on material and durability
• GPS Tracking Services: Usually around $15 – $50+/tracked asset/month, with potential hardware costs
• Specialized On-Site Training Beyond Included Onboarding: Often between $500 – $3,000+/engagement for instruction beyond standard onboarding

Disclaimer: The pricing is subject to change.

How Does Solmex Work?

You can start managing your equipment and maintenance tasks in Solmex with these steps:

• Log in to Solmex and set up your sites, locations, and staff roles
• Import your asset list using the Excel template and correct any validation errors before completing the import
• Add meter readings and existing service records to establish each asset’s maintenance history
• Assign service templates with tasks and intervals based on operating hours, kilometers, or calendar dates
• Print asset QR labels so operators can scan equipment and report problems
• Review incoming requests and create work orders with an assigned technician, priority, and scheduled date
• Record completed work and parts used from a phone browser. Mark blocked jobs with a reason
• Collect the required signatures to close each job and retain its record in the asset’s history

Solmex Use Cases

Based on our analysis of Solmex features and documented capabilities, we have identified five situations where the software fits specific maintenance needs:

1. Construction Teams Coordinating Repairs Between Project Sites

An excavator breaks down while the mechanic is working at another project. Before leaving, the mechanic needs to know where the machine is, what failed, and whether the required parts are available. Without that information, the visit may end with another trip to the workshop.

Solmex lets the operator scan the machine’s QR code and report the fault with a photograph. The workshop can review the problem and check available spare parts before sending someone out. Staff then assign the repair and follow its progress. Downtime tracking starts with the fault report, so the team can see how long the equipment has been out of service.

2. Maintenance Planners Managing Machines With Different Workloads

Two loaders may need servicing at different times, even if the company purchased them together. One works every day; the other stays on standby. Giving both the same service date overlooks how much each machine actually runs.

Planners can assign service schedules in Solmex based on operating hours, kilometers, or calendar dates. As operators enter meter readings from their phones, the maintenance team can check which machines need attention at each site. Solmex also estimates upcoming service dates from each asset’s recent usage. Before arranging the work, planners can review the tasks and parts listed for that service interval.

3. Hotel Maintenance Teams Following Up On Guest Room Faults

A guest reports faulty air conditioning to reception, but maintenance still needs the room number and repair details. When employees pass the complaint between departments, it can become difficult to tell who has taken responsibility.

With Solmex, guests can scan a QR code in their room and report the problem directly without creating an account. Maintenance staff review the request and assign a technician to the repair. The technician records the work from a phone browser while attending to the fault. If a missing part holds up the job, they can mark it blocked and explain why. Staff can then see what needs follow-up rather than treating an unfinished repair as an unanswered complaint.

4. Plant Managers Assessing Equipment That Keeps Needing Repairs

When a compressor keeps failing, managers need to decide whether another repair makes sense. That decision is harder when earlier job sheets and repair charges sit in separate places.

Solmex keeps the repair history and recorded costs on the compressor’s asset record. Maintenance staff can review previous work and parts usage before discussing the next repair. Parts issued from stores add their cost automatically, while staff enter labor and outside repair charges in the same ledger. Managers can examine spending by period and category, then export the figures to Excel for further review. This gives them a clearer account of what they have spent on the machine before discussing replacement.

5. Fleet Managers Investigating Unexpected Fuel Spending

A higher fuel bill does not show whether machines worked longer, consumed more fuel, or had incorrect fill-up entries. A mistyped quantity or missing record can make normal consumption look unusual.

Fuel staff enter each fill-up in Solmex against the relevant machine, along with its meter reading and station. The software compares consumption with that machine’s own history and flags unusual entries. It also highlights fills above the recorded tank capacity and possible missing fill-ups. Staff can check these records for errors before investigating the machine’s consumption. The monthly report brings fuel quantities, costs, and flagged entries together for management review.

Is Solmex Right For You?

Looking to replace scattered repair records and missed service dates? Solmex brings equipment history and scheduled maintenance into one workspace. It fits maintenance teams managing machinery, production equipment, or building systems at one or several locations.

Solmex follows KVKK requirements and GDPR where applicable. Encrypted traffic and role-based permissions protect access to records, while audit trails track changes. Daily backups include encrypted offsite copies. As operations grow, the Business plan accommodates unlimited assets and sites.

Current maintenance research highlights difficulties turning preventive maintenance plans into regular work. Solmex addresses this need with meter-based schedules and upcoming service dates calculated from recent equipment usage. Teams can review what needs attention before assigning the work.
