GPS

Hello,Does anyone know if MaintainX plans to implement a GPS system? Recently, I’ve been creating work orders for tasks like emergency lighting tests, fire system checks, and legionella testing. However, as the company I facilitate for continues to grow and we onboard more staff, it’s becoming increasingly challenging to ensure these tests are being completed at the correct locations.I’ve heard unfortunate stories of staff claiming to have completed compliance tests without actually visiting the buildings. A GPS system would not only help verify the completion of tasks at the required sites but would also help reassure clients that compliance standards are being met.Thank Ste

Asset Identifiers

When I create a new asset does the system automatically create a unique id number for it? In the tutorial it stated to include a unique identifier to enable searches for specific assets. In other systems there is an ID# and description, how does MaintainX handle this?

Accurately Tracking downtime

Is there a way to indicate if an asset is down in the service request? Once a work order is created from the request identifying asset is down can MaintainX automatically change status to DOWN then upon WO completion automatically return to ONLINE? Trying to remove manual tracking to reduce potential human error.

Maintenance Professionals the Bridge to Industrial AI Success

In a recent article our CEO, Chris Turlica, highlights a critical challenge facing many organizations: the potential loss of irreplaceable maintenance knowledge as experienced professionals retire. The stakes are high, with studies showing North American aviation companies losing 11.5% of their maintenance workforce annually, and up to 40% of maintenance professionals potentially retiring across industries within five years. Chris suggests a straight-forward solution: combining human expertise with AI to create intelligent systems that can capture, preserve, and distribute this critical knowledge. Rather than replacing workers, these AI copilots would enhance their capabilities, helping document insights and making crucial information more accessible to both veteran technicians and new recruits.Read the full article here. Join the conversation! What challenges have you faced in preserving institutional knowledge at your organization, and how do you think AI tools could help bridge the

Building Trust in AI: Insights from the Field

I recently wrote a piece for Smart Industry about something I keep seeing out in the field. Companies are under pressure to “do something with AI,” but many are skipping a key step: getting buy-in from the teams who actually use it.  Check out the article here:https://www.smartindustry.com/artificial-intelligence/article/55276845/if-ai-isnt-the-problem-what-is-maybe-trust-from-frontline-teams Here’s the gist: If your technicians don’t trust the system, they’re not going to follow its recommendations. And honestly, they’re often right not to. I’ve watched smart people ignore alerts because the data didn’t make sense, or worse, because they couldn’t tell where it came from.  My take? Building a unified data foundation (a single source of truth) should come first. It creates the shared operational reality and transparency your team needs to trust AI in the first place. That means your AI tools should be pulling from credible sources like OEM equipment manuals, standard operating procedure
