GP MaTe Review

Automatically Route Information, Tasks, And Alerts To Designated Persons

GP MaTe has a workflow functionality which automatically sends information, tasks, and alerts to designated individuals. This eliminates the need to use emails and reports when it comes to informing and notifying key managers and staff of the specific tasks and actions they need to do. Users can take advantage of this functionality whenever they need to execute certain procedures such as informing maintenance managers about issues and problems related to equipment and assets, asking approvals for work orders, purchase orders, or purchase requisitions or communicating inspection results. Since the routing of information, tasks, and alerts is done automatically, users will be able to make their equipment and asset management and maintenance processes more efficient.

Intuitive User Interface That Supports Multitasking

The user interface of GP MaTe supports multitasking. The system allows users to perform a specific task within a single screen and access pieces of information coming from different areas of the system without the need to close or leave that screen. For example, when they are preparing work orders, they can check the history and inventory availability of the equipment or assets they are generating work orders for all within the work order screen, allowing them to perform multiple tasks simultaneously.

Asset And Equipment Identification, Classification, And Linking

GP MaTe enhances how users identify and classify their equipment and assets as well as associate the correct information. This way, they can manage and monitor the needed maintenance works easily. The system permits them to organize their equipment and assets in a hierarchical structure or order. Here, equipment or asset is divided into different levels and components. In addition, such a hierarchical way of organizing assets improves cost monitoring. For example, if they want to find out the maintenance costs associated with particular equipment, they can drill down into its individual components and view a detailed breakdown of the costs.

They can group equipment or assets based on their function or type and come up with failure and problem codes that are specific to a piece of particular equipment or asset type. The system, moreover, permits them to link information to equipment and assets such as specific safety procedures, quality assurance and quality control requirements, and procurement policies. With this capability, they can prepare the appropriate work orders and route them to the proper reviewers and approvers. Documents from external sources can be linked to equipment and assets as well such as those documents prepared by manufacturers.

Optimizes Data Capturing And Reporting in Calibrations And Inspections

The computerized maintenance management system also facilitates and optimizes the execution of calibration and inspection activities and tasks. Users can capture data from multiple readings and verify if the data contains values that go beyond the levels of tolerance they have set. In the event that values are outside the tolerance level or range, alerts and work requests are automatically generated.

Report Asset And Equipment Failures And Problems With Ease

With GP MaTe, end users and operators of equipment and assets will no longer find it hard to report equipment and asset failures or problems and generate work requests so that those failures or problems are addressed and solved immediately. Problem reporting in GP MaTe can be done using different mechanisms like via the Work Request screen, web-based reporting forms, or automatic report generation capabilities. Users can also track the status of the work requests they have created and submitted, enabling them to quickly check if a work request was approved, denied, or completed.

Enhance Maintenance Planning Through Work Orders

Maintenance planning is included in GP MaTe. This is made possible through the aid of its work order management functionality. In GP MaTe, a work order is consist of information and instructions related to maintenance tasks such as task instructions, resource estimates, and schedules. Users can leverage these work orders to check if the tasks and actions they planned are accomplished completely and properly.

Maintenance, Repair and Operations Spare Parts Inventory Management

GP MaTe offers features for the management and control MRO or  Maintenance, Repair and Operations spare parts inventory. The system automates essential inventory management processes like receiving, issuing, and returning MRO or  Maintenance, Repair and Operations spare parts, which is made possible through barcode scanning. They can also monitor how parts are being used so that they will be able to immediately confirm if parts are no longer available or when their current quantities are not sufficient.

Automatic Generation Of Purchase Requisitions

The Inventory management and control functionality of the GP MaTe proves that this system is really flexible and dynamic because it makes asset and equipment maintenance management an integral part of other processes within the organization. Another proof can be found in GP MaTe’s procurement functionality. With this functionality, users can instantly produce purchase requisitions for asset or equipment parts in a snap depending on the reorder points and reorder quantities they have set.  Moreover, purchase requisitions can be associated with the specific tasks included in the work orders. Thus, when the in-stock quantities of parts or materials needed for work order tasks are not enough, the system can automatically trigger the generation of purchase requisitions.
