Work Order scheduling and measurement is a many-armed monster that typically involves multiple transactions, reports, offline programs/processes and various “work arounds” to produce a schedule and measure compliance.
Engenium Solutions has tamed the monster with the Scheduling Workbench. The Scheduling Workbench is a simple and effective tool to help maintenance organizations create schedules based on available resources, measure actual performance against the schedule, and improve organizational efficiency.
