EQUIPMENT MANAGEMENT EXTENDS ACUMATICA FIELD SERVICE MANAGEMENT FOR MAINTENANCE CONTRACTS, WARRANTY, AND REPAIRS
Equipment management is essential for service-driven organisations that manage maintenance contracts for customer-owned equipment. This is critical for services related to equipment or labour warranties.
The Equipment Management application extends Field Service Management capabilities to record the history of customer-owned or company-owned equipment. Avoid mischarges and objections by establishing warranty offers for equipment or components. Keep track of serial numbers, define default vendors, and track sale and installation dates for each component.
Maintain complete visibility of your customer’s equipment under warranty as well as equipment history. Manage service contracts and schedules for recurring visits to your customers. Prevent needless customer invoicing of parts and labour when the work is covered under warranty. Create field service contracts to associate equipment for preventive maintenance or create schedule rules for recurring service visits to your customers.
Every detail for equipment is maintained in the system and available to field service technicians through the mobile application. Assign appointments to the right resource at the right time, considering the workload, location, needed skills, and certifications Armed with information, technicians can provide faster and higher quality maintenance services for customer equipment.
With Acumatica, we have a single source of truth that’s actionable, which cuts down on errors, cuts down on confusion, and ultimately, makes us more profitable.
