In the dynamic world of modern business, optimising operational efficiency is crucial for staying competitive. One area where organisations could fall short is in the management of their assets and maintenance processes. While many businesses prioritise return on investment (ROI), they may overlook the significant costs associated with neglecting maintenance management. With multiple decades of experience in this industry, we have seen the true cost of not having a system in place, including:
Without a CMMS, maintenance data is often scattered across spreadsheets, paper documentation, and disparate systems. This often causes inefficiencies amongst maintenance teams with time wasted on searching for information. Having data in disparate systems can also contribute to poor decision making, as a lack of a unified view and complete visibility makes it difficult to analyse trends.
By not adopting a proactive approach, and relying on reactive maintenance increases the risk of unexpected equipment failures. This can cause high levels of unplanned downtime, leading to operational disruptions. Organisations often experience higher costs as emergency repairs are typically more expensive than scheduled maintenance, and assets may suffer from premature wear and tear.
Effective inventory management goes beyond merely stockpiling of spare parts; it’s about strategically optimising resources to minimise downtime, control costs, and ensure the longevity of equipment. Manual inventory tracking may make it difficult to predict stock levels, causing stockouts or overstocking.
Neglecting maintenance not only jeopardises asset reliability, but also compromises workplace safety and regulatory compliance. Meeting these requirements becomes challenging without a CMMS as manually maintaining records can be time consuming and lead to human error, and lack of proper documentation can complicate audits. Organisations will also face a higher risk of accidents if safety inspections and maintenance tasks have not been adequately tracked.
Using paper-based or spreadsheet systems can result in lost or misplaced work orders, leading to tasks being forgotten or delayed, and they may be prone to errors when created manually. Without a centralised system, it can be challenging to prioritise work orders, and maintenance teams may experience inefficient scheduling. Manual processes also makes it hard to maintain comprehensive historical records of works orders, hindering analysis and continuous improvement efforts.

Brickworks, a brand of Persimmon Homes Group, are one of the UK’s leading housebuilders. Previously the team at Brickworks used paper documents and excel spreadsheets to manage their maintenance, but searched for a CMMS solution to streamline their maintenance and reduce time spent on admin. Since implementing Agility CMMS, the team have benefitted from integrating with Meerkat, with Matthew Wride, Maintenance Engineer explaining:
The other thing we are looking at are systems integrations with Agility CMMS. We have already integrated with Fletcher Moorland’s Meerkat system, and it has enabled key equipment in our factories to talk to Agility. For example, high temperatures or vibration alarms are linked to Agility and jobs can be automatically created which means that our team leaders have information extremely quickly, straight to their phones telling them that something needs to be actioned. This has saved us a lot of time already and avoided costly issues. We are looking at other systems we could potentially integrate with which may also help us to save valuable time, money, and effort.
Herrco Cosmetics, a bespoke beauty and cosmetic manufacturer that develop organic based products, approached SSG Insight when they were looking for a CMMS that would improve their current processes that heavily relied on excel, checklists and schedules. They are a technologically advanced business and a Smart Factory, that have integrated various IoT devices and business systems with Agility. Derek Herrmann, Managing Director, discussed their integrations with us:
We are a technologically advanced business and a Smart Factory, from our cosmetic product innovations to equipment like the sensors and cameras that we have in place, and our systems. With Agility we have a system that is future proofed and will advance with us.. We are pleased to have integrated Agility with our other business systems such as our purchasing system Winman. As all our engineers will be managing their own procurement, this link between the systems will make it easier for them and for Finance.
Implement an effective scheduled maintenance strategy to avoid costly, unplanned downtime. Easily plan preventive maintenance servicing for assets and ensure critical spares and staff are available. Integrate IoT sensors for condition-based monitoring and automatically trigger work orders as asset conditions change. Use this insight for proactive, predictive maintenance and improve output, extending asset life cycles while dramatically reducing downtime.
Access Agility’s scheduling board for a centralised calendar view of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance task progress. Save time and resource by automatically deploying jobs to staff based on skill set and availability. Set out compliance checks and risk assessments with each job to ensure your team meets best practices and standards and completes the job safely every time.
Keep track of your internal workforce availability and scheduled jobs, as well as contractor’s jobs and when they will be onsite, to ensure everyone works efficiently. In Agility, you can access an employee record with details about their experience and certifications. Receive alerts before certificates expire and proactively schedule training so you are never short of a qualified engineer to do the job right the first time.
