If you're not implementing fundamental excellence you will be going back to re-do things - until you fix that first.  Tribal knowledge is at risk of going away.  Bryan shares an important trend to embrace - the investment in your frontline workforce - Connect with the people that do the work, show them the value of change, and connect them to the business.  The right culture solves this and sets you up for fundamental excellence!  The full episode is coming next week!

This episode of CMMSradio features guest Nick Haase, Co-Founder; Go-To-Market at MaintainX discussing the origin and journey of MaintainX, why your CMMS must be "Stinkin Easy" to use as a product, the Deskless frontline workforce, and how using MaintainX can push ROI quickly for early adopters.  How data availability improved through the process for clients,  that Magic Moment, and why it's critical to deliver a solution that can "Do it really well; in a simple way" to deliver the outcomes clients need.  Core functions matter most (it sets your foundation) and organizational transparency makes a difference.   Ever wonder about the C-Suite and top-down vs bottom-up approaches to software selecting and implementation?  The "Why?" is very different from each perspective.  You cannot improve what you are not measuring while how that happens creates accountability.  The global procedure library, in MaintainX, speeds up iterative changes to near real-time which improves your ability to make impacts in measurable and incremental ways.  You get a dsired outcome by empowering all levels of the organization and it seems evident that Millennials want accountability, measurability, with autonomy, which creates this new digital transformation movement. MaintainX empowers people to use the system by leveraging a purposeful design resulting in a system they can put to work and drive instant value.    Where is the ROI in non-manufacturing environments? What’s the biggest change/trend in CMMS you see coming ahead?  What do you see as the role of #AI in CMMS?
