Part I:
What is a CMMS?!
A Computerized Maintenance Management System(CMMS) is a software tool
to help manage and track maintenance activities such as scheduled
maintenance, work orders, parts inventory, purchasing and projects. The
CMMS gives full visibility and control on maintenance operations so everyone
can see whats already been done and what still needs to be done.
Dashboard KPIs help measure current performance against those defined goals. The CMMS also helps
maintenance managers get more organized by reducing their dependence on paper, whiteboards and
memory by automating many mundane daily activities. A CMMS also helps users identify recurring tasks that
need to be done or prioritized, ensuring nothing is overlooked. One of the biggest benefits of a CMMS is
increased labor productivity as the system can help plan and track work so technicians can complete their
tasks without interruption.With proper planning and tracking, the maintenance team is a lot more organized.
More importantly, a CMMS can help an
organization become more health and
safety compliant in a number of ways.
Safety procedures can be included on all
job plans ensuring technicians are aware
of the risks ensuring the organization is
compliant and ready for those audits.
Using a CMMS, you can schedule
preventive maintenance work orders and
get alerted automatically when PMs are
due. You can also see all the work done to an asset in the past so you can optimize maintenance schedules or
troubleshoot existing breakdown issues. CMMS software also tracks how much time and money is being spent
on which assets helping organizations make those repair versus replace decisions effortlessly. Rather than
trolling through receipts and dockets at the end of a year, the manager can simply run a costing report in the
CMMS to see where the budget was spent and what needs to be improved. Business intelligence reports built
into the CMMS can be used to analyze and refine your maintenance strategy.

Why is having a CMMS important?


There are countless books written on why a CMMS is so important
but the following is a short summary. A CMMS:"

Will assist the facilities maintenance manager with work reception,
planning, control, performance, evaluation, and reporting."

Helps extend the life expectancy of assets."

Optimizes the use of scarce resources such as manpower,
equipment, material, and funds."

Automates administrative tasks & digitally store all relevant
information for effortless future recall. "

Helps efficiently tracks proper maintenance, repairs, inspections,
installs or upgrades of assets."

Eliminates extensive paper trails by automating processes through
easy-to-navigate functionalities thus minimizing keystrokes and
maximizing productivity."

Provides a one-source database for all asset related information. "

Accurately predict the costs of materials and labor for future
projects.

Part II:
The Implementation Process!
Many CMMS implementations fail as companies struggle to fully understand
the implementation process. CMMS implementation failure rates from 60% to
80% have been reported in various maintenance resources.
Reasons for failure include cost overruns, time overruns, poor end user utilization, little or no change from
management, lack of support from management, insufficient end user training, failure to achieve the promised
benefits, or failure to become an every day part of the organization. This CMMS implementation guide is a
logical process created to help maximize the rate of success of implementing a CMMS software package into
your organization. The process has been designed to be as comprehensive as possible so nothing is missed
and your organization can realize the full potential of a CMMS system.

Phase 1 - Discovery
1. Prepare the Business Case
The first step in any CMMS implementation is to
prepare your business case. Does your organization
need a CMMS, or maybe something similar like EAM
or CAFM software? What objectives do you want to
achieve with a CMMS implementation? A CMMS
can benefit an organization in a number of areas.
Define the goals in terms of cost savings, efficiency gains, scrap reductions, inventory optimization, return on
investment (ROI), health and safety improvements, standardizing work practices, compliance tracking or
environmental objectives. This will determine whether the CMMS is worth implementing, and if so, the
corresponding budget.

2. Get Buy In & Commitment from Management


Traditionally, maintenance has been viewed as a cost center in an organization; it costs money to hire
maintenance technicians and purchase the spare parts. So, it can be a challenge to convince management

Comprehensive CMMS Implementation Guide

to spend more money on maintenance. Remember, its not about


fixing machines when they break, its about maintaining the
function of assets so they perform when needed. Maintenance
should be viewed as a value center in an organization. If youve
done your homework in step 1, you should have a good business
case to present to management and to show them the benefits
and cost savings associated with implementing a CMMS. You
must be able to demonstrate a return on investment in order to get the project off the ground. Ensure they are
aware of the time and budget required for the project so you get their commitment from the outset.

3. Prepare for Change Management


Introducing a new software application into an organization can be met with fierce resistance. If an end user
has had an experience with an overly bloated CMMS in the past, or a failed implementation, they will be
reluctant to adopt the new CMMS application. The project team must be mindful that they view the CMMS as a
tool to improve productivity and reduce costs, whereas the maintenance team may misconstrue the initiative as
a means to lay some people off. It is important to involve the entire team throughout the implementation
process so they recognize that the CMMS as a positive change for the organization. All relevant stakeholders in
the organization need to be included from the outset so they can help recognize the issues. Everyone must
agree that change is needed or the project is doomed to fail. Include all the stakeholders when identifying the
business benefits and impacts, as this will give them an opportunity to plan ahead. Hold coaching sessions,
project update meetings, brainstorm sessions and knowledge transfers to keep them informed of progress and
give them an opportunity to contribute to the projects success. It will help the organization identity any project
factors early in the process. It will also help the end users understand that it is better to prevent the fires, than
be constantly running around putting out fires.

4. Define Business Requirements


Before you start the buying process, define the business requirements for
your facility. The objective is to ensure you select the right CMMS package
for your organizations needs. What do you need the CMMS to do to
achieve those goals outlined in Step 1? How many users will use the
system? What is their technical proficiency? How big is your facility? Do you
have multiple sites around the world? What functionality do you need? What
modules such as purchasing will you need? Do you want your technicians
to use mobile? Are you looking to integrate with other systems? Does the
CMMS need to match existing processes, or will current processes be
optimized with the new CMMS to improve operations?

Comprehensive CMMS Implementation Guide

5. Define your KPIs, metrics,


and reports to achieve goals
Before you select your CMMS, you need to
determine which KPIs and metrics you need from
the CMMS to measure against the goals outlined
above. In Step 1, you defined the business goals; in
Step 4, you defined the business requirements to
achieve those goals; in Step 5, you define the KPIs
to measure against those goals.

Define Business Goals

Want more information on KPIs?


Check out the Advanced CMMS Metrics ebook that covers how to calculate the five
most common maintenance KPIs.
https://www.maintenanceassistant.com/
resources/white-papers/

Define the business requirements to achieve


those goals

Define KPIs and metrics to measure against


those goals

For example, say your organizational goal is to improve equipment reliability. Lets say the business
requirement would be to ensure that the CMMS could do both time based and condition based
maintenance. The KPI or metric to measure against is Mean Time Between Fail (MTBI).

Each plant will have its own specific set of KPIs that can be used to make informed decisions that
impact employee safety, employee productivity, plant efficiency and budget planning and forecasting. You
must select a CMMS that has the ability to output the metrics you need. You may want to track costs
incurred against an individual asset or track costs incurred against a cost center. Some organizations are
more interested in measuring the availability of your assets as it directly impacts the ability to meet orders.
There are 5 main maintenance KPIs that will satisfy 90% of organizations. They are Mean Time to Repair,
Mean Time Between Failure, Overall Equipment Effectiveness, PM Compliance and Planned Maintenance
Percentage. The author has written about these five key metrics in detail in the Advanced Maintenance
Metrics e-Book.

6. Create your Project Schedule


Decide your project timeline and milestones. The following diagram outlines how the implementation is broken
down and how the tasks will be performed for a typical 4-week implementation. As mentioned above, the
major tasks will be tracked using the implementation-tracking document.

7. CMMS Discovery
There can be a considerable number of factors to consider when researching CMMS applications.
Creating a matrix of requirements and scoring each item by importance will make the process faster and
more accurate. This score is essentially a measure of how well a computerized maintenance management
software system fits your business requirements. The matrix and scoring system will let you quickly and
easily compare CMMS solutions side-by-side, and help you make the right decision first time.

Comprehensive CMMS Implementation Guide

Technology
Another major consideration is the decision to go with on-premise or cloud hosted CMMS software.
Traditional on-premise CMMS software can be a handful to manage. You need to provide the IT
infrastructure to run the application, configure the network to enable users to access the CMMS and then
install any upgrades or security patches when they become available. And if the hardware fails, you could
be waiting days to get back online. Many organizations dont have the bandwidth or expertise to manage
complex processes like this. Today, cloud CMMS applications are garnering more interest as they oer
numerous advantages such as a lower total cost of ownership, unlimited scalability, and regular product
upgrades. With cloud CMMS software, there is no need for complex server set up and configuration; you
simply sign up, log in and start using it immediately. There is no big upfront payment. Instead, you pay a
manageable monthly subscription to access the software, which is hosted on the vendors servers.

Total Cost of Ownership


Price is important but when evaluating asset management software, but the total cost of ownership should
also be factored in the decision process. The total cost of ownership includes the initial purchase price as
well as operating costs from purchase to disposal. Research the financial impact over the lifetime of the
product before making the purchase. Things to consider:

Initial purchase price of the software

Server hardware, server software and floor space

Network setup and configuration

Implementation consultants fees

Application Training

Upgrades, patches and future licensing

Downtime, outage and failure expenses

Security

Backup and recovery process

Future upgrade or scalability expenses

License renewals

Data Migration when the CMMS is end of life

Hopefully youll find this list of CMMS considerations helpful. It may seem like a long list to go
through for a small to medium sized business that just wants a better handle on their
maintenance, but putting in the research is worth the time it takes to get the best CMMS for
your needs.

experience do you have in house?
How much vendor involvement will you need?

11

Selecting a dedicated team of maintenance and IT professionals will safeguard the projects success. By
involving the software vendor for training & consultancy services, you can borrow their expertise when needed.
Youll need a project manager, one or more system implementation specialists, data gathers, project
champions, trainers and end user testers.

A. CMMS Project Manager


The project manager sets the project expectations, ensuring and fully orient the project teams with all the
activities necessary for a successful implementation. The project manager should also ensure best practices
are always employed throughout the CMMS implementation.

B. CMMS Implementation Specialist


The system implementer reports to the project manager and is responsible for the day-to-day rollout of the
CMMS project. These responsibilities include:

Data Cleansing
Data Gathering
CMMS Set Up and Configuration
Testing
Monitoring

Customizations and security


configurationz
Coaching and on the job training
for users during the period before
and after the go-live date

A. CMMS Trainer
The training director will be responsible for development and instruction of all CMMS training classes at your
site. Ideally, the trainer should be a maintenance management professional with both strong IT skills and
extensive industry experience. In many cases, the CMMS vendor can provide either onsite or remote training.

Phase 2 Data Migration


1. Data Gathering
Missing data is the biggest reason for CMMS implementation
failures. How equipment data will be gathered is a significant
component of your implementation plan and a key factor in its
success or failure. The project team needs to be diligent when
gathering all the asset related information. This includes
equipment types, preventive maintenance actions, trigger
frequencies, standardized procedures, spare parts information
and supplier details. Plan out what is needed ahead of time to
meet the business requirements so nothing is missed.

2. Data Cleansing
(from Existing Programs or Excel)
Garbage data from a prior system or legacy application is a common discovery during a CMMS
implementation. Existing data can be imported directly into most CMMS applications using the import tool,
however, some manipulation of the data may be needed before the import. Where prior data exists, assume
the data is of poor quality and will require data scrubbing before it can be uploaded to the new CMMS
system. Add the appropriate time to complete this to the project tracker.

Phase 3 System Configuration


1. Data Entry Tables, Codes, and System Control Info
Uploading and configuring the data in your new CMMS doesnt have to be a mammoth task. If you have
data from a legacy system or from Excel spreadsheets, that history can be transferred to the new CMMS. If
you were diligent when selecting your CMMS, it most likely has data entry tools and import functionality
that can speed up this process. Importing parts lists, equipment lists and standardized tasks lists from
Excel can knock days off the implementation schedule. The time taken to complete this step in the CMMS
implementation project varies depending on the quantity of data and the size of the facility.

Comprehensive CMMS Implementation Guide

13

2. Core Configuration
Major steps include configuring the asset hierarchy, work order workflows, email notifications, scheduled
maintenance procedures, inventory triggers and system settings. For example, when building PM
maintenance for an asset, the trigger must be configured so it executes the work order at the correct
interval. Each organization is unique so features and functionality can be toggled on and off as needed to
fit your business requirements. Some customizations may be required to ensure the efficient integration of
software into existing work processes.

Phase 4 System Training & Go-Live


1. Train End Users
Proper training cannot be over emphasized
when bringing a new CMMS system to an
organization. Its an incredibly important
investment as it helps demonstrate best
practice when setting up, configuring and
using the system; ensuring personnel are
equally proficient on MA CMMS. It also helps
users and administrators understand the
features and full capabilities of MA software so they can utilize the system more effectively and efficiently.

2. Review Responsibilities of Users in Functional Department


As the saying goes, Garbage in equals garbage out. So in this stage of the implementation, the role of
each user in maintaining the CMMS, preserving the integrity of the data, and making configurations in the
future, is reviewed. Each user must be made aware of their responsibilities going forward in order to ensure
the long-term success of the CMMS at the facility. The CMMS specialist or project manager should outline
how to manage the CMMS on a daily basis to extract the greatest value from it and to maintain a healthy
system in the long term.

3. User Acceptance Testing


During user acceptance testing, the CMMS software implementer works with the end users to ensure the
CMMS software system meets the business requirements and fulfills its intended purpose. User acceptance
testing of functionality within the CMMS, such as security, menus and permissions, is required for each user
group created. For example, when verifying user permissions setup, the user simply logs in and navigates
through the application ensuring each group only has access to the data and functionality in the app that
they need. This determines what data and functionality each user will see when accessing the application.

Comprehensive CMMS Implementation Guide

14

4. CMMS Goes Live


When all previous steps are complete, the CMMS can go live at the organization. All end users are expected to work
from the new CMMS going forward.

5. System Monitoring & On the Job Training


After Go-Live, the software implementation specialist or CMMS champion should shadow the end users to verify the
system is performing as expected. Are the correct notifications going to the right people? Are the scheduled
maintenance items triggering? This also gives the implementation specialist time to spend with each end users providing
on the job training (OJT) as they perform their work; ensuring all users are equally proficient on the CMMS. This offers an
expert presence with constant availability to ensure quick resolution of issues during commissioning.

15

Phase 5 Project Close


1. Post Implementation Verification
The implementation is deemed to be complete when all the
project tasks have been signed off on. By their very nature
CMMSs tend to evolve over time. The expectation is that some
changes to the configuration will be made as users become more
comfortable with the application. They can be performed by the
CMMS administrators or made during follow up reviews by the
project team.

2. Project Assessment Document


Conducting a post project review assesses the success of the
CMMS project at your site. Assessments should include a
comprehensive assessment report and executive summary of
findings that are presented to the key stakeholders at the conclusion of the project. This information is used
to improve future projects and organizational processes. In the review the manager should do the following:

Measure how closely the project meets the


business requirements
Identify what worked well and what needs
improvement still

Formulate and share lessons learned and


best practices from feedback
Advise the CMMS champions on any
potential issues or risks going forward

Phase 6 Review, Improve & Refine


The implementation is now complete but the project may still be doomed for failure. Remember, a CMMS
is simply a tool to help an organization realize its maintenance and reliability strategy. Simply switching on a
CMMS and starting to use it will not lead to greater efficiencies and reduce costs. It is more than just a
work order tracking system. Used correctly, your organization can maximize the value of your CMMS
investment through better planning, improving efficiency, increasing safety awareness and reducing costs.
As mentioned above, the CMMS will evolve over time. Continually monitor the current CMMS operational
state versus your desired optimal state, and take time to find ways of improving the way your organization
uses the CMMS over time. Solicit feedback from the system end users, run performance reports and
monitor KPIs and implement improvements where possible.

Part III:
Extras: Tips & Tricks!
Tip #1 Look for Mobile CMMS
Select a CMMS vendor with a mobile app. Mobile CMMS gives the
user access to the CMMS in the field or on the shop floor while they do
the work, eliminating the need to print out work orders or take notes
only to enter them into the system later. Technicians can log data such
as repair notes and meter readings in the system in real time,
eliminating the redundancy and double jobbing associated with paper,
and freeing up time for the technician to more productive tasks.

Tip #2 Select Cloud CMMS


Cloud software continues to make headlines all over the world as the next evolution of the software industry.
Faster Internet speeds, cheaper database storage and the dawn of the smartphone and tablet era have made
cloud-based CMMS software the preferred option. Cloud based CMMS software provides distinct advantages
and cost savings over traditional on premise CMMS software. As cloud based CMMS software is hosted on the
vendors servers, there are no IT related costs such as server hardware, network configuration, IT support,
backups, upgrades, virus protection and security. And as it resides in the cloud, it can be accessed them from
any Internet connection anywhere in the world on PC, tablet or mobile.

Comprehensive CMMS Implementation Guide

17

Tip #3 Look for API Ability


Many modern CMMS applications can be configured to communicate directly with the equipment assets as they work
in the pit so they are ideal to help manage your Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) programs. Sensors placed
throughout the asset can monitor conditions such as vibration or temperature, and send a signal to the CMMS if
operating conditions are breached. The CMMS then turns this data into a scheduled maintenance so the issue can be
addressed at the optimal time before it turns into something more serious.

Tip #4 Insist on Clean and Complete Data


Just remember the golden rule when it comes to any CMMS software: garbage in equals garbage out! Ideally, you need
complete, accurate data in the CMMS to be able to pull useful information from it. It is a lot easier to run a costing report
to see where the maintenance budget was spent rather than sifting through receipts and dockets with a calculator.
When reviewing a work order, you should be easily able to tell what steps were taken, who did the work, what parts
were used and how long it took. Other fields like maintenance type, failure codes and priority will also help categorize
the work. Technicians should be fully trained on the CMMS and encouraged to fill in as much data as possible when
completing a work order. If you havent been filling in all the possible fields, you wont be able to extract useful data like
this from the CMMS. Listing parts needed, work instructions and safety directions on your planned scheduled
maintenance ahead of time will encourage your technicians to fill in all required data.

18

Part IV:
Conclusion!
A CMMS is an inexpensive, but incredibly useful tool and in time can help drive
down the cost of maintenance but its not a magic bullet that will eortlessly turn
your maintenance department into a well-oiled machine simply by using it. Asset
management is an ongoing process of continuous improvement and a CMMS is the
tool to help manage it. In time, the CMMS becomes a database of maintenance
related information that can be used to outline best practices, identify workflow
improvements, pinpoint cost savings and eliminate waste.

This guide has been specifically written as a comprehensive implementation
overview so nothing is overlooked. It will help you reduce the time needed to
implement a CMMS, reduce outside consultancy fees, and reduce the chances of
costly mistakes. Follow the plan diligently to greatly increase your chances of
CMMS implementation CMMS.

Remember, if you are considering upgrading or implementing a CMMS for the first
time, cloud-based software provides distinct advantages and cost savings over
traditional on-premise software. The reliability, mobility and lower total cost of
ownership that comes with cloud-based CMMS can give you the competitive
advantage you need to take your asset management strategy to the next level.
Consider it a critical cog in your maintenance and reliability program that can pay
huge dividends in improving plant performance and eciency whilst increasing
productivity if employed correctly.
