Fogwing CMMS, a Smart CMMS and asset management platform, enables maintenance managers to create and assign asset maintenance orders as work orders. The managers have the authority to create work orders, assign work orders to maintenance engineers and managers, create checklists, and provide estimated start and end dates for the maintenance process. A manager also has the power to convert maintenance requests into Work Orders. Fogwing CMMS helps managers and engineers track asset maintenance work in factories and facilities. Creating an asset maintenance work order and assigning a maintenance engineer to check asset health can help factories and facilities reduce unanticipated asset downtime and breakdowns.
