Automated maintenance management has many benefits in and of itself--but these benefits are multiplied when integrated with other functions, such as project management, inventory control, bar coding, and graphics. Project management can help managers schedule workers and equipment for most efficient completion of projects, to set up "what if" scenarios before a project begins, or to schedule a year's preventive maintenance. Although most maintenance management programs come with an inventory control module, this can be integrated with the mainframe inventory/purchasing system to create a just-in-time inventory system to reduce dollars spent for inventory and its storage. Bar coding can be used with the inventory control module to track each piece of equipment as from receiving through use. Or, bar codes on work orders can be used to track man-hours. Following explanations of the various uses of these interfaces, the author briefly describes how they can be established.
