C.4.1.3 Computer Maintenance Management System (CMMS)
The Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is a modified version of IBM's Maximo Asset Management software that meets current ST requirements. CMMS is ST’s enterprise asset management IT application that is being deployed to all sections of the ST office, both overseas and domestically. Based on IBM’s Maximo® asset management software, CMMS has customized features designed to support and enhance ST work processes and comply with federal laws for asset accountability and management.
CMMS was designed as a unified technology platform to collect information on DS/ST’s maintenance management effort. CMMS services include a complete inventory, purchasing, and work order accounting system with advanced reporting metrics capabilities. CMMS facilitates customer purchase orders, service requests, work orders, and tracks government-equipment inventory. The application also contains data provided from DS/ST on X-ray and Explosive Detection Programs (EDP) equipment, and inventory from the standard equipment list and DME Parts catalogs. CMMS facilitates cooperation between ST and other DOS offices by providing an integrated and shared software environment. Roles and responsibilities for each phase of the equipment lifecycle are fully defined. The work order system tracks office resource expenditures against each activity and provide metrics to support DS resource management decisions.
The Contractor shall be required to use CMMS in supporting DME activities, i.e., managing work orders, ordering all materials, and recording asset information. The Contractor will be required to utilize CMMS to manager work orders, order all materials, track and maintain accurate information for asset management on all devices and configurations of installed technical security assets. The contractor shall utilize CMMS to generate previously built and formatted reports. The reports are critical to ensuring that the DOS and ST management have reliable information to make management decisions. Collection and analysis of this data allows the use of quantitative techniques for process improvement. CMMS enables a feedback loop on procurement actions and greater accuracy of inventories and simplified field reporting on activities and assets. Appendix J-5: provides the listing of CMMS SOPs.
C.4.1.3.1 CMMS/Maximo Mobile Work Manager Program
To better assist in domestic and global efficiencies of DOS through streamlining the business, mobile Work Manager was implemented in June, 2010. Work Manager allows CMMS work orders to be accessed by technicians through mobile hand devices, simplifying CMMS. This increases efficiency through the ability to provide a disconnected CMMS and allows technicians to carry their daily work away from a stationary PC. The Work Manager Program allows users to report work progress, add parts and assets, record time of work along with request follow on work against a work order.
The vision of the Work Manager is to provide the ability to collect ‘Discovered Assets’, create ‘New Assets’, record asset ‘Downtime’, ‘Reconcile’ inventory, ‘Verify and Issue’ inventory , ‘Digitally Capture’ damaged assets, and ‘Utilize Cellular’ technology with mobile devices. In doing so, it will enhance Work Manager and introduce both the Asset Auditor and Inventory Manager applications to further increase mobile capabilities.
