Utilities - MicroWest Software Systems, Inc.

The chart below shows how a typical Utility Services solution can be put together using AMMS. Each module is described in detail below.

Equipment Management / Inventory & Purchasing

These modules are the core of AMMS. Read more about these modules here.

User Customization

The User Customization System (UCS) makes AMMS the most flexible CMMS / EAM solution on the market, allowing for customized data entry screens, reports, forms, data import/export interfaces and much more. Read more about UCS here.

Imaging

Allows for attaching and printing images and documents such as scanned drawings, CAD drawings, MS Word documents, etc. to Work Orders, Equipments, Parts, Purchase Orders, etc.

AMMS Mobile / Barcoding

With AMMS Mobile, each employee carries a Android, Windows Mobile or Ruggedized PDA with them. They can create Work Orders on-the-fly, issue parts, check out tools, track assets, perform meter readings, and much more. At the end of their shift, they simply synchronize with AMMS to update the database. With the wireless version, they can update the database in real time, as well as look up information live from the AMMS database. With barcoding, you can create barcode labels for Equipment numbers, Part numbers, Room numbers, etc. which you can then scan to make data entry quick and precise.

Calibration

The Calibration option allows for the testing of instruments and other devices using up to five different standards. It also allows for the storing of information and data associated with those tests for later reference and evaluation.

The Calibration option in combination with the User Customization option allows for the creation of user specific calibration forms and certificates, adjustment of calibration window headings which match user terminology, and adjustment of calibration data output to other programs for analysis.

Asset Tracking

Tracks the current location of movable assets, who moved them and when they were moved. Keeps a record of previous locations.

Print Routing

When a work order is to be printed, this option allows it to be easily and automatically sent to any printer on your network.

Simply select the appropriate service group when the work order is created, and that work order will be printed on that service group's printer.

Predictive / External Event Interface

AMMS can be interfaced with predictive maintenance modules and external event monitors, allowing for tight integration between your equipments and AMMS. For example, interface AMMS with an event monitor on a machine to automatically generate work orders and page personnel when the machine's parameters fall outside of the normal range.
