Smart Maintenance Task Manager

GENERAL MANUFACTURING

CMMS for Manufacturing: Maintenance Management for Production Environments

Smart Maintenance Task Manager gives plant managers and maintenance engineers the tools to build and enforce preventive maintenance schedules across every machine, production site, and production line — and to track every task to completion with full documentation.

CONTEXT

Why Maintenance Discipline Matters in Manufacturing

In manufacturing, machines do not stop breaking just because you are behind on orders. Unplanned downtime on a production line does not just cost repair time — it costs production output, delivery schedules, and customer trust. The teams that consistently maximise uptime are the ones that treat preventive maintenance as a non-negotiable scheduled activity, not something that happens when there is spare time.

CAPABILITIES

What Smart Maintenance Task Manager Does for Manufacturing Operations

  • Schedule daily lubrication checks on rotating equipment
  • Plan monthly mechanical overhauls on CNC machines
  • Track electrical inspections across all production sites
  • Assign each recurring task once — later occurrences go to the same technician
  • Monitor maintenance KPIs per production line
  • Export maintenance records for internal and external audits

How it runs in your facility

In a Manufacturing facility, Smart Maintenance Task Manager runs on two layers: a web dashboard for the maintenance manager and supervisors, and a mobile app on iOS/Android tablets and phones for the technicians on the floor.

NFC tags or QR labels on machines and task points let technicians open the right tasks with a tap or a scan — no typing, no searching. Technicians can work through their tasks, readings and photos even when the production area has no Wi-Fi, and the app syncs to the central dashboard the moment the device reconnects.

Setup typically takes about 2–3 weeks for a site with around 100 assets. Multi-site rollouts scale from the same configuration.

Manufacturing Questions

Setup typically takes about 2–3 weeks for a site with around 100 assets. It includes onboarding the asset hierarchy, setting up preventive maintenance schedules, training maintenance managers on the web dashboard, and training technicians on the mobile app. Multi-site rollouts scale from the same configuration without re-implementation.

Yes. Smart Maintenance Task Manager is built around a five-level asset hierarchy: production site > line > asset (machine) > section > task point. Tasks live on the task points, and reports and the dashboard roll them up by machine, line and site. One account can run any number of production sites; the site switcher in the web dashboard's header scopes the view to one site or shows all of them, so management sees consolidated reports across sites. On request, Pegotec can limit what each manager and supervisor sees to the production sites they run.

ERP maintenance modules are typically office-facing — designed for purchase orders, procurement, and work-order accounting. Smart Maintenance Task Manager is shop-floor-facing — designed for a technician with greasy hands holding a mobile phone, scanning an NFC tag, working through a checklist with photos. Both can coexist: the ERP handles procurement and finance; Smart Maintenance Task Manager handles execution and a timestamped record of the work done, plus on-floor stock consumption with the optional Inventory module (available on request).

Overdue tasks are highlighted on the technician's phone and on the manager's live dashboard, and overdue alerts arrive in the app and as push notifications (email on request). Escalation is optional — your Admin switches it on: an overdue task then goes to the supervisor, then to managers and admins, after the number of hours you set for each step. Completion rates per line and machine, and each technician's on-time and late work, are in the reports.
