Optimizing Data Center Maintenance: Cryotos CMMS Delivers Enhanced Efficiency and Reliability at a World-Leading Data Center Facility

Introduction

A leading player in IT and data services, sought to enhance the operational efficiency of its maintenance processes through the adoption of Cryotos CMMS. As a critical facility that prioritizes uninterrupted service and data security, they required a solution that could streamline maintenance activities, enhance productivity, and improve data accuracy. Cryotos CMMS was selected for its advanced capabilities, addressing their specific needs and challenges.

• User-Experience Issues with Mobile App: The existing mobile solution used by the maintenance team was not user-friendly, making navigation difficult and hampering efficient use of the app.
• Technical Challenges in Data Entry: The mobile app’s technical limitations resulted in inconsistent data entry, undermining the reliability of maintenance records.
• Delayed Meter Readings: The inability to perform real-time data entry for energy equipment meter readings led to delays and inaccuracies in capturing crucial energy consumption data.

These challenges impacted the overall efficiency and accuracy of their maintenance operations.

• NFC tags are securely affixed to each machine, providing a unique identifier for every asset in the system.
• Technicians can perform their assigned tasks by scanning the NFC tags, ensuring that the correct operations are carried out on each machine.
• By scanning the NFC tag, technicians can easily access and identify the specific tasks that are associated with a particular asset, streamlining the maintenance or operational process.
• The system allows for the mapping of assets to NFC tags using the NFC Mapping functionality. This process is done through the mobile application, ensuring that each asset is accurately linked to its corresponding NFC tag for efficient task management and tracking.

• Increased Operational Efficiency:
  By streamlining the maintenance process through automated reporting, work order management, and task tracking, Cryotos CMMS has reduced downtime and increased the overall efficiency of maintenance teams.
• Improved Data Accuracy:
  Real-time data entry, coupled with enhanced tracking and alert mechanisms, has led to more accurate maintenance records, minimizing errors and enhancing decision-making capabilities.
• Proactive Maintenance:
  The alert-based systems have allowed them to identify and address potential issues before they escalate, reducing reactive maintenance and improving asset reliability.
• Time Savings and Cost Reduction:
  Automation of reports and seamless work order tracking has reduced the time spent on administrative tasks, resulting in cost savings and a more agile maintenance operation.
• Enhanced User Experience:
  The user-friendly mobile app and robust mobile support have improved the workflow for the maintenance team, ensuring tasks are completed on time and within KPIs, leading to better overall performance.
