Achieving CMMS Data Integrity

Introduction

Many CMMS new data builds are performed very badly or frequently companies upgrade their CMMS and upload legacy data to the new version. Frequently the data build is outsourced to engineering consultants or companies who specialize in this type of activity. The main reason for a lack of data integrity is a lack of standards and guides so the people involved do what they think is the right way, but everyone has different ideas.

This Achieving CMMS Data Integrity training course shows delegates the best practices in building the CMMS data during the pre-operational phase and how to carry out major clean-ups of the equipment and spares data.
