Question Of The Week: Healthcare CMMS Recommendations?

Posted by Mary Ellen McCandless

This week’s question comes from the Facilities Management Group on LinkedIn.

I would like to know what CMMS software people are using in hospital applications. I have inherited a system that is owned by an outside vendor which is very labor intensive to use. My position was previously outsourced and they brought it back in house and have made arrangements to use the vendor’s system.

I am looking for a system which is user friendly, sends emails that a work order was received, and hopefully will send an email when the work is completed. Looking for typical things like a PM system and maybe being able to hyperlink the appropriate equipment information so O&M data, part numbers, etc. would be available. I would also like to track time spent fixing the item, cost associated with fixing it, etc.

Thanks in advance for responding.
