What problems is Eptura Asset solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work for a thriving and very busy manufacturing concern. Our maintenance program has always been reactive, ad hoc, with very limited paper-based record keeping. We had no authoritative list of the machines we run. We had no centralized management of maintenance. We had no digitized manuals or parts lists or service records-- just shelves full of diligently-kept but unsystematized photocopies and handwritten pages in large binders. Our excellent maintenance technicians have been with us for many years and their invaluable knowledge and experience was going completely uncaptured for the future. Their contacts, their relationships with those contacts, their extensive researches into parts, vendors, alternative schemes for addressing challenging repairs, etc., were all scattered and unavailable to anyone but themselves, in spite of their best analog efforts to record these things responsibly. After 3+ months of onboarding Hippo, the logic and ease of use of the CMMS have made adoption very comfortable for everyone, even techs who are leery of computer use in general. Management is realizing benefits in a better macro-view of maintenance and a more accurate sense of what are and what are not problems that need significant attention. We're very happy with Hippo, and are persuaded that if it's this useful to us when we've barely started using it, it is only going to become more valuable as we integrate it into our company systems more and more.
