Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS): Compatibility is Key

When you implement an asset tracking system, it’s critical to have asset tags that are durable, yet fully compatible with your software of choice. Inventories, maintenance and audits are all imperative for utility operations.
Manual data collection is a redundant process that not only leads to critical documentation errors – but sometimes liability issues, as well. With an asset management system, you can map assets, create reports or feed your information into a backend database for further manipulation and advanced reporting capabilities.
Camcode’s utility asset tags are compatible with several leading computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS), leaving you more flexibility to choose a software provider that meets the needs of your organization without compromising compatibility or adding functional complexity.
