== The Challenge ==
*You have assets that require maintenance
*You need to track completed maintenance
*You need to know what preventative maintenance is coming due
*You need to ensure that established procedures or processes have been followed
*You need to know which standard was used in a certain procedure

== Overview ==
TrackAbout's Maintenance Module provides functionality for recording, tracking and reporting maintenance and other internal procedures used in your business to manage your assets..<br>

Maintenance information can be collected both from your handheld or the TrackAbout website.

== TrackAbout Maintenance Module ==

The Maintenance Module enables the recording, tracking and reporting of maintenance actions and other procedures used in your business to manage your assets.

By enabling the Maintenance module you can:

*Report on any completed maintenance
*Maintain an individual asset's maintenance history
*Create a list of maintenance actions that will be displayed on the handhelds and can then be performed on your assets
:::''In this example the items like "Oil Change", "Inspection", "Repair", and all other options in the list represent custom maintenance actions''

*With additional configuration, your operators can be alerted to which maintenance actions are needed for the assets that have been scanned.

When combined with the Dynamic forms module, the Maintenance module can also help you to:

*Establish step-by-step processes to follow for a given maintenance action you need to ensure that established procedures or processes have been followed
*Record extra information for each kind of maintenance work
*Enforce that all information is collected and that values are withing acceptable ranges.
