Maintenance and inspection management

Keep maintenance visible before inspections are missed

Manage machines, devices and measuring equipment in one central place. Keep due dates in view, document evidence traceably and make clear who is responsible.

Typical problem

Maintenance is not missed because people are careless. It is missed because the system is missing.

Inventory list here. Maintenance record there. Calendar entry with a colleague. Certificate on a shared drive. As long as nothing happens, it seems harmless. In an audit or during a failure, it becomes a problem.

Main problem

Deadlines drop out of sight

Recurring inspections and maintenance tasks live in spreadsheets, calendars or people's heads. Nobody reliably sees what is due next.

Evidence is hard to find

Inspection records, maintenance reports and documentation may exist, but later they cannot be found reliably.

Ownership remains unclear

Several people are involved. In the end, everyone assumes that someone else is taking care of it.

How it works in qmBase

Manage all equipment centrally

In qmBase, you capture machines, devices, measuring equipment and other assets in one central place. For every record, you can store owners, locations, inspection intervals, maintenance information, documents and evidence.

Inventory

Capture equipment centrally

Manage machines, devices, measuring equipment and assets in one central place.

Inspections

Responsibility

Make ownership visible

For every asset, it remains clear who is responsible.

Evidence

Document evidence

Link inspection records, certificates and reports directly.

Part of the QMS

Maintenance does not end with the inventory list

A defective device can trigger an action. Measuring equipment can be linked to an inspection instruction. A supplier can be assigned to several assets. Information does not remain isolated, but becomes part of a traceable system.

Maintenance stays part of the QMS

Equipment is not just another list. Inspection instructions, owners, risks and actions remain connected where they are needed.

Evidence stays in the right context

When an audit asks for an inspection record, evidence does not have to be searched for in folders, emails or old lists.

Keep inspection dates in view

Know what has to be done today

qmBase shows upcoming inspections not only as a date on the equipment record. You see what is overdue, what is due this week and which inspections need to be prepared this month or quarter.

Priorities at a glance

Overdue and soon-due inspections are shown separately instead of disappearing in a long inventory list.

Document inspections directly

From the overview, you can document completion directly, including result and evidence.

Traceability

Keep inspections and evidence together

Inspection records, maintenance reports, calibration certificates and operating instructions should not disappear somewhere in folder structures. In qmBase, relevant documents can be linked directly to the respective equipment record.

Inspection records

Store results and documentation directly on the equipment record.

Inspection certificates

Link calibration certificates, test reports or external evidence directly to the asset.

Traceable history

Document completed maintenance so that years later it is still clear what was done and when.

Collaboration

Clear tasks instead of silent hope

Maintenance only works when it is clear who is taking care of it. In qmBase, responsibilities are visible directly on the inspection date. Automatic notifications make due inspections visible before deadlines are already missed.

Clear ownership

For every inspection date, it is visible who is responsible and which status applies.

Due dates become visible early

Automatic notifications remind teams in time before inspections become overdue.
