What is the Purpose of a CMMS? 
● Maintenance Tool 
● Provides a central storage location for the majority of 
data and information for your assets 
● Manages and controls your work and materials 
management processes 
● Tracks maintenance activity over the lifecycle of an 
asset

Why an Organization Needs a CMMS 
● Helps customers to improve preventive and predictive 
maintenance, extend the life of their equipment and 
achieve a lower Total Cost of Operation (TCO) and greater 
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) 
● Reduce equipment downtime, and inventory requirements 
while improving service intervals 
● Organizations are in a position to make more informed 
decisions and adjustments that optimize maintenance and 
operations 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y

#5 Implementation 
● Define your approach 
● Defining phase to develop all pertinent data 
standards to ensure consistent data collection 
● Again, you don’t know what you don’t know 
● Leverage the experience of an experienced CMMS 
Implementer for guidance 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y
#6 Configuration 
● Forms, Fields, Dropdowns, Tabled Data 
● Derived from standards defined during 
implementation phase and documented in SOPs 
● Users of System vs. Users of Data - Purpose is to 
ensure data entry consistency with established data 
standards 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y
#7 Data Population & Validation 
● Data about your assets is critical for the success of your CMMS 
implementation but only if you have the right amount of good 
quality data 
● All data that goes into the system needs to be maintained and all 
maintained data needs to go into the system 
● Conduct a thorough testing of the established Processes and 
Procedures developed to support the maintenance function 
Garbage In…Garbage Out! 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y
#7 Data Population & Validation 
Preparing Data for CMMS 
1. Determine which data elements (Core) you need about your 
assets in the CMMS to support the business processes that 
you defined earlier 
2. Determine where these data elements are currently stored. 
• Attribute Data to follow 
3. Clean up data BEFORE importing the data into the new 
system 
Importing Data 
Includes the population of system data such as equipment lists, 
equipment histories, PMs, employee information, vendor and 
supplier lists and materials 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y
#8 Training Main Users 
● End user training is a critical step you should strongly consider to 
ensure your organization’s investment in the system 
● Training Options 
○ Online Training 
○ On-Site Training 
● Train the Trainer 
○ Your internal trainer needs to become 
proficient with the new CMMS at a level higher than that 
required of the end-users 
○ Your internal trainer needs to possess the soft skills in 
communications and organization 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y 
CMMS
#9 Go Live Strategy 
● Go-Live Support and Coaching 
● May encompass soft “go lives” in regards to certain 
areas of use within the CMMS 
● You will NEVER be fully Implemented 
○ Soft Go-Lives = Implementation Milestones 
○ Continuous and ongoing 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y
#9 Go Live Strategy 
Key Considerations 
● Multiple locations 
● Data Gathering / Population Project(s) 
● Integration 
● Licensing Issue 
● Pilot Program 
● Technology / Hardware 
B E G I N . . . T H E R E S T I S E A S Y
Process Auditing #10 
● Continuous improvement 
● Keep momentum going Year Over Year 
● Using data to drive decisions 
● Define key metrics (include examples) 
● Establish a review process and team (CMMS User 
Group) - responsible for SOPs 
● Establish IMMEDIATELY after Go-Live to ensure 
bad habits are not allowed out of the gate
