CMMS for manufacturing
Bring plant maintenance work into one system.
Connect work orders, machine records, and parts context so the next person picking up a job can see where it stands.
A repair can span shifts, technicians, and a search for the right spare. When its details live in messages and spreadsheets, each handoff starts with another question. Maintio gives plant maintenance teams a shared place to organize that work.
Discuss your plant's maintenance workflowThe workflow
A breakdown job, from first report to closeout.
Use a shared work record to carry context between the people handling a repair.
Illustrative workflow: a technician investigates a fault on a CNC machine and hands the repair to the next shift. This is an example, not a customer case study.
- 1
Capture the job
Create a work order for the machine. Record the reported issue and set the priority for your maintenance team.
- 2
Add asset context
Review the equipment record, maintenance history, and documents before deciding the next action.
- 3
Coordinate the handoff
Assign the work, review parts context, and keep its status current if the job is waiting on a spare or further attention.
- 4
Close with context
Record the work completed and any follow-up. The next technician can refer back to the job and the asset history.
Give each machine a useful maintenance record.
Start with the asset when you need equipment context, then use work orders to coordinate the job. Parts and vendor records support the maintenance conversation around it.

Work orders by status
Review the queue, assign work, and see which jobs are active, waiting, or complete.
Assets and parts
Keep machine records, linked parts, vendors, and maintenance documents together. Inventory depth varies by plan.
Planned work across sites
Organize preventive maintenance alongside repairs. Use site context when coordinating maintenance across plant locations, within your plan allowances.
Your first rollout
Pilot with the people who hand work over.
Choose a line or equipment group and review a real work handoff with the technicians and supervisor involved.
Review your site procedures and any integration requirements during evaluation. This workflow does not imply certified compliance, an MES/ERP connection, or a guarantee about downtime.
- 01
Agree equipment names
Use identifiers the team recognizes. Bring machine records, maintenance instructions, and a short list of commonly needed parts.
- 02
Define ownership at shift change
Decide who updates the open work, how waiting jobs are described, and who picks up each next action.
- 03
Review before expanding
Check whether the next shift can understand the job without chasing messages. Then decide which equipment group or site comes next.
Questions from maintenance teams
How can a plant team handle work across shifts?
Use assigned work orders and their current status as the shared reference. Agree a handoff routine for updating the job and its next action; the software supports that routine rather than replacing the team’s responsibility for it.
Can we keep parts and equipment context together?
Maintio includes asset records with linked parts and vendors, plus inventory management. The plans distinguish basic parts tracking from fuller inventory and low-stock visibility. Review your stores workflow and plan fit in a demo.
Can we manage preventive jobs alongside breakdowns?
Yes. PM scheduling and work orders are both part of Maintio. Start with the recurring jobs for your pilot equipment, then review how they fit around the repair queue.
What should we check for a multi-plant rollout?
Bring your site count, asset volumes, user roles, and handoff process. Site allowances and permissions vary by plan. Confirm required integrations separately; the pricing roadmap lists third-party integrations as upcoming.
Bring one plant maintenance handoff.
Show us where the job starts, who takes it next, and what context gets lost. We can review that workflow together in a demo.
