Inventory Management
MetricStream Equipment Management module streamlines inventory management of equipment, spare parts, consumable supplier, etc. with equipment master lists that include details of plants, departments, locations and owners. Managers can monitor usage history, repair, calibration and obsolescence of equipment as well as calculate metrics such as cost of maintenance. It tracks equipment by serial number and manages warranties periods, vendor information and purchase orders. The solution enables maintaining a master list of facilities and creating a schedule of maintenance for facilities with task assignments of maintenance responsibilities.

Preventive Maintenance
The solution enables scheduling of general preventive maintenance, cleaning and calibration based on type and frequency of use to ensure that manufacturing equipment operates within the parameters necessary to produce products that meet established specifications. It automatically generates work orders for appropriate personnel and notifies production managers of the schedule in advance. Managers can track and escalate due work orders to avoid delays and initiate evaluation of impact of out-of-tolerance measurements on in-process or finished products.
