Tracking maintenance activities with Proteus CMMS software helps with regulatory inspections and ISO certification. In addition, track changes with audit trail module. Comprehensive performance and management reports are also available with Proteus CMMS software.
Mobile Asset tracking
One database for all asset information allows for easy retrieval, input on activities, parts usage,
and maintenance. RFID can be used to ensure information is always up to date on mobile
assets from lifts to grinders based on their location at the time work is to be performed.
Connected Enterprise and Integration
Systems integrations can provide additional functionality and eliminate redundant processes.
Proteus Alarm Interface (PAI) provides continuous alarm monitoring via a direct interface to Building Automation Systems (BAS) such as Tridium, Honeywell, Trane, Johnson Controls, Siemens, Schneider and many more!
PAI automatically issues work orders based on alarms, events or equipment runtimes. The work
orders define specific tasks and parts required to complete the job quickly and efficiently. Work
orders may be sent via e-mail, printer or sent directly to a technician’s mobile device,
informing them of alarm status and actions.
