Ever been to restaurant and watched the servers key in menu selections, process credit cards and clock in and out? When data entry gets to that point for the user, only then will you have consistent, quality information. In my experience, if it takes more than one minute, log on to log off, you’ve lost the battle. Use of catalogs for objects, failure effects and failure modes along with bar codes are the best bet. Take it one step further for global applications by providing multi-language capability.

CMMS data work are either converting legacy system data to integrated new system 9(for existing plants) or generating data for new plant task being done by EPC Contractor.
In earlier case, one has to live with available information whereas in later case a good data can be generated if proper coordination is made with engineering, vendor documentation and construction databases properly tuned from CMMS point of view.

For legacy system data to new system data, data preparation can be done in formats of new system independently with properly guided hands.

I do believe that in the ideal world, technician should input the data into the CMMS system. However in most of the cases this don’t happen. Most technitians, specially in the mining industry whose job take most of the shift and take place in the field (not in the workshop), don’t like sitting infront of a screen at the end of the shift to enter the data. If you have to hand over a job to the next shift having a piece of paper that documents what has been done is more useful. I have tried in the past both approach and the paper documentation and input by a maintenance clerk seems to me more effective.

As a Maintenance Planner in 1985, I was tasked with gathering data on 200 pieces of equipment, and 4,500 spare parts for the company’s new CMMS. I personally collected and recorded the machine data during both scheduled and unscheduled outages and shutdowns, and during PM’s.

The storeroom clerk and a temp were tasked with doing the same thing for parts. We designed a paper form based on the data the CMMS needed, and I defined the convention for the description of each part. The part was recorded when it was checked out or reordered, along with at least 25 parts/day for other parts.

It took us 8 months of combined effort to complete the project. When it was done, ALL of the CMMS data was accurate and in a standardized format. Even using an IBM 286-15 with a DOS-based CMMS, our combined, daily paperwork requirement was reduced by approximately 85%. The CMMS was used to manage the equipment and parts on an as-needed basis until the data entry was complete. The maintenance staff continued to execute their duties uninterrupted.
