EAM Software, Enterprise Asset Management

What is EAM Software?

An Enterprise Asset Management (EAM software) system provides a complete view of an organization’s physical assets (buildings, machines, equipment and vehicles) throughout their entire lifecycle, from design, commission, or procurement, through to operation, maintenance, disposal and replacement. EAM software is used to plan, execute and optimize maintenance activities with associated priorities, skills, materials, tools and information.

EAM software is often found in asset-intensive industries such as: manufacturing, public works, construction, utilities, and energy. In using EAM software, organizations aim to increase the performance of assets, minimize equipment downtime, extend the useful life of assets, reduce operating costs, and drive operational efficiencies related to asset management.

An EAM solution typically includes the following functional areas:

Asset Lifecycle Management
Maintenance Management
Labor Management
Parts Inventory Management
Vendor Management
Financial Management
Analytics & Reporting

Within maintenance management, EAM software usually includes the ability to plan, manage, and schedule asset maintenance activities such as: tracking work requests, creating work orders, managing work in progress, scheduling technicians, planning preventive maintenance, managing inventory and procurement, and more.

EAM software provides prioritization of all asset data, which helps organizations move from a reactive to a preventive maintenance strategy while streamlining the automation of maintenance activities, inventory management and work orders.

EAM software can help an organization achieve the mission of maximizing asset life at the lowest lifecycle cost.

Mobile Device Access

EAM solutions arose as an extension of Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS).

EAM as a stand-alone provides visibility into asset data and documentation. Added to a CMMS solution, operators can diagnose problems, schedule technicians to jobs and organize work orders with prioritization. Organizations now understand the demand for materials and can control inventory costs to ensure overall facilities optimization while achieving organizational compliance.

Our Unique Approach

Holistic Approach to Asset Management

FacilityForce takes a holistic approach to facility and asset management, handling everything from commissioning and deploying assets, to preventive and corrective maintenance, to condition assessment and identification of deficiencies, to capital planning and improvement projects, and more. Going beyond traditional enterprise asset management (EAM) software, the FacilityForce integrated solution provides a complete picture of facility and asset costs, condition, deficiencies and expected life in order to strategically plan for your organization's mission and growth.

Make Better Strategic Decisions

Our Asset Inventory and Capital Budgeting Solution seamlessly integrates facility and asset management with capital planning using an extensive range of tools and mobile apps under a single, unified software platform. The solution allows you to store both asset lifecycle and deficiency data within our industry-leading, integrated system. Now, accurate, real-time asset and assessment data makes data-driven, long-range strategic planning and budgeting a reality.

Integrated Solution

Define Your Scope

FacilityForce is an enterprise application that can be deployed as narrowly or as broadly as you'd like, meaning you can use it within a single department, across multiple agencies or deploy it organization-wide (i.e., entire city/county/state/federal agency).

Some customers start with a single department (such as general services, facilities) and find they can easily add real estate, capital construction, transportation, health, education, corrections, parks and more. Ultimately, broader scope can be a force multiplier as greater visibility across a portfolio leads to better alignment with organizational goals.
