It also gives you the ability to respond quickly to reported equipment problems. You can therefore resolve maintenance issues before they impact your asset s performance or your business. STREAMLINE AND AUTOMATE ASSET MAINTENANCE Tectura Asset Maintenance is a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) consisting of a suite of applications to help you with the planning, cost recording, collection, control, and analysis of work issues related to assets and equipment. With Tectura Asset Maintenance, you have the tools to track all maintenance costs, including the value of component inventory used, labor (by trade), outsourced services such as contracted labor and purchased services and materials. You can track the cost of scheduled as well as unplanned repairs. FIGURE 1: a maintenance asset BUILD ON YOUR MICROSOFT DYNAMICS NAV INVESTMENT Tectura Asset Maintenance fully integrates with the following Microsoft Dynamics NAV modules: General Ledger Purchasing and Payables Inventory and is linked to Fixed Assets Tectura Asset Maintenance combines functionality from these modules to help you plan and execute a maintenance program and quickly react to reported equipment problems.

3 PAGE 3 Work Requests and Work Orders The Work Request functionality within Tectura Asset Maintenance provides a simplified work order for field personnel. This Work Request can then be converted to either a Planned or Released Work Order, or can be rejected, if need be. (SEE FIGURE 2) Using the Work Order tool, you can: Define the scope of work to be done Specify the resources needed Specify required start and end dates Set a work priority and assign a userdefinable progress status for tracking purposes Centralize the collection of costs Work Instructions & Attachments The work order tool enables you to attach Work Instructions that can be optionally set to print when the Work Order is issued to the field. Documents can also be attached to a Work Order, an asset, an asset group, or a maintenance procedure. These can also be set to print, or not to print, when printing the Work Order. These attachments can be of any type (Excel, Word, JPEG etc.) that is available and supported on your system. FIGURE 1: a Work Order Maintenance Procedures Maintenance Procedures are the triggers for scheduled maintenance in the system. They can also carry a Budget, which will be copied to the Work Order automatically when a schedule is produced. Work Instructions and Attachments can also be added at this level. Maintenance Procedures can be: Period or usage (run-hours) based Fixed or variable intervals Planned or actual intervals i.e. base the next schedule date based on the original plan, or set so that the interval remains static, irrespective of when the actual work is performed. Set to automatically create Work Orders and/or a Planning Worksheet, based on trigger settings Optional lead times to allow for planning and preparation Start and retire effective dates Where-used look up Work Order Statistics & Audit Trail It is possible to view the budgeted, committed and actual costs incurred, summarized by Budget Line item type, by selecting the Statistics function at any time.

The system is fully integrated with the General Ledger and it is possible to pre-determine where costs are to be posted in the General Ledger, based on Asset, Work Order Type and type of transaction. It is also possible to record and analyze costs in the general ledger by using Microsoft Dynamics NAV Dimensions. Backlog Management The Work Order Planning Board and the Asset Maintenance Tasks forms provide the ability to monitor your backlog at all times. Extensive filtering capability is provided to enable you to focus on critical work that may be allocated to the field or in the planning phase.
