Simplicity in the Cloud: The Benefits Behind Cycle-Based Preventive Maintenance

Continuous improvement of maintenance best practices is an essential piece of overall plant improvement. Moving from a calendar-based preventive maintenance (PM) system to a cycle-based PM system can be a game changer for organizations. However, because of manually entered data, unreliable production numbers and archaic EAM/CMMS solutions – evolving to cycle-based PMs is all but impossible. This webcast will show how advancements in cloud technology can solve these challenges and move your maintenance system into the modern era.
