Top Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for Maintenance Operations using CMMS in the MRO Industry

Question:

Hello to all the members of the forum! This is my first post here. I am currently working on an article about the essential and most effective Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to track using a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) for maintenance operations in the MRO industry. This article will be featured on our website, www.capterra.com, and is part of a promotion we are running for Girls Who Code program. I am particularly interested in hearing from female professionals in the MRO field for their valuable insights. While there isn't a specific forum for Women in Reliability and Asset Management (WIRAM) on this platform, I would love to connect with WIRAM members for this article. Your input is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello! While I may not have experience working in the MRO industry, I do have expertise in CMMS solutions. If you require any guidance on this matter, feel free to reach out to me via email at heather@mapcon.com. Thank you!

Hello and welcome to the forum! I'm thrilled to see that you're supporting Girls Who Code and integrating the perspectives of women in this field. While I’m not directly involved in MRO, I've been working in a similar industry and have used CMMS quite extensively. One thing I've found essential in my work is tracking the Mean Time To Repair (MTTR). It's an incredibly effective KPI as it provides insights into the effectiveness and efficiency of our maintenance processes. Happy to discuss more about this if you'd like!

Welcome to the forum! It's great to see you taking on such an important topic, especially with a focus on women in the MRO industry. If you're looking for KPIs to highlight, I’d recommend focusing on metrics like mean time to repair (MTTR) and maintenance backlog, as they provide clear insights into operational efficiency. I also think incorporating perspectives from female professionals could add a much-needed depth to your article. Have you considered reaching out to networks like WIRAM or even leveraging social media to connect with potential contributors? Excited to see what you come up with!

Welcome to the forum! It's great to see new voices joining the conversation, especially on such an important topic. For your article, I think focusing on KPIs like Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time to Repair (MTTR), and equipment downtime could provide a solid foundation. I’d also emphasize tracking maintenance costs relative to production output, as that can help align maintenance efforts with overall business goals. I’d be happy to share more insights from my experience if you'd like, and I'm sure many others would have valuable contributions as well—hopefully, you connect with some amazing women in MRO! Good luck with your article!
