Full Users and Administrators can set up triggers or manually create work orders. These triggers happen automatically when their trigger conditions are met. A meter reading or corrective actions are methods to trigger a work order.
Meter Readings​
A meter reading is a reading from a device that measures the performance of an asset, for example, temperature, distance, or working hours/cycles. You can enter meter readings manually or get them via Internet of Things (IoT) sensors.
For example, suppose that in your company, you have a room that needs to stay above a certain temperature. You can set up a work order trigger for when the temperature of that room goes below the set value. You can assign this work order to a user to do an inspection check and adjust the temperature.
Corrective Actions​
A corrective action is a work order that gets triggered or when an anomaly is detected in a work order. An anomaly is a value that's outside of the norm. This could be an empty field for example. These can be created manually or automatically. Corrective actions help minimize downtime by catching and flagging early signs of a fault with an asset.
Corrective Actions through Procedure Inspection Checks​
You can trigger a corrective action through an inspection checks when you select either the Flag or Fail check in an inspection field in a procedure.
When you complete the work order with the flag or fail check, MaintainX prompts you to create a corrective action. When selected, it creates a work order with the flagged or failed field. You can assign and schedule the corrective action to a user to perform at a later time.
Corrective Actions through Procedure Scoring​
Procedure scoring is the ability to assign points to fields in a procedure giving the procedure a total goal score. You can customize the number of points for each field in the procedure based on your company's priorities and goals. When the procedure score is under the goal score, it triggers a corrective action.
For example, you define that the final score of a procedure needs to be above 50% of the maximum goal score to be successful. After completing the work order, the procedure score is 35%. A prompt will appear asking you to create a corrective action.
Corrective Actions through Anomaly Detection​
Available for Enterprise plans. For more information, contact your MainatinX Account Manager.
AI-powered anomaly detection alerts a user when a value entered in a procedure field on a repeating work order is unusual.
As you enter data into work orders, you build historical data on a what the expected behavior is. These alerts are based on those data points.
For example, if a field in a procedure normally has a decimal value, but you enter a non-decimal value or leave the field empty, anomaly detection would highlight the field.
Anomaly detection helps prevent data entry mistakes, and improve quality and precision of the data going into MaintainX.
