Through its graphical interface, the CMMS software makes the spare parts management or search fast and pleasant.

Each technician can, in a few clicks, carry out all maintenance operations related to spare parts :

All items in the Spare Parts Store are managed primarily by the General Inventory Module. It includes all the articles stored or managed and has all the necessary features for a complete identification (with possible photos), a very fast search, easy tracking of stocks, movements, suppliers, etc.

Its main advantage lies in the connection of the spare parts to the photographs that describe the equipment of the technical tree. Each piece can be placed in the right place, exactly where it will be used.
