"It is the first thing we start up after Outlook every day." - Harry Koffke, Financial Controller, Hystandard Handling Equipment.
After 27 years in business, Baseplan Software's mission of helping businesses integrate their operations and become more efficient through technology has never altered.We have seen businesses grow nationally and internationally. We have also seen the other side of the coin with companies struggling to maintain their business when faced with outside influences and internal challenges.
Fleet and asset management is a balancing act of increasing your fleet efficiency, enhancing productivity, maximising value and minimising the total cost of ownership. From purchasing pieces of equipment to delivering, maintaining and analysing,
Baseplan Software is there supporting your business processes every step of the way.
MIGRATION, SEPARATION, INTEGRATION?"In the completeness of the package you see its efficiency. We don't have a separate asset management system hanging off it. We don't have a separate software system for stock, inventory, spare parts ordering, equipment rental or service. It is all tightly integrated." - Georg Bommers, CFO, Linde Material Handling.
We're sure you've been sold a system that offers integration with other applications. What they don't tell you is that 'integration' to some companies means connecting to a third party solution through extensive consultation and modifications. This process significantly diminishes the accuracy and depth of the data resulting in a substantially longer ROI.
Integrating the back office with the rest of your business allows you the freedom to focus on other matters. Baseplan Software offers a complete solution providing outstanding integration between business units with few modifications.
The servicing procedure is part of the overall
Baseplan Enterprise suite providing full integration in look, feel and data connectivity. Security management, user interface and installation are all consistent with the remainder of the software solution reducing learning time for users and bringing down the total cost of ownership to the business.
TO SERVICE OR NOT TO SERVICE, THAT CAN'T BE THE QUESTION"Baseplan allows us to accurately measure our business and set up KPIs in terms of efficiency and in the end that really helps us improve our support to our customers. It links all the operations of our business from our people in the field to our back office staff. For us Baseplan has become a total operating system." - Bob Mules, General Manager - Australia and New Zealand, JLG Industries.
- Do you know what your utilisation cost per asset is?
- Is your equipment being utilised to its maximum capacity?
- How much do you spend on maintaining your equipment?
- Answering these questions may be difficult, but it shouldn't be.
Selling and servicing equipment involves complex supply chain management between many departments of the business. Keeping the fleet in working order is paramount to remaining viable and profitable.
Our clients rely on Baseplan Software to provide great insight into their assets from every angle, increasing the efficiency of their fleet and minimising total cost of ownership.
Efficient spare parts inventory management can be achieved by reducing idling stock and expediting costs through improved forecasting and ensuring workshops and mobile technicians are more effective. Benefits of spare parts management include:
- Service kits can be created of required parts and labour required to perform a particular type of scheduled maintenance.
- Equipment due for service process allows for planning in advance - spare parts requirements for future use.
Process controls are key components in service management to allow for planning of spare parts and labour resources. Service plans are setup based on agreed dates, days elapsed, usage and any combination with jobs created on demand using an interactive preventative maintenance planning screen.
Breakdowns can be logged and then managed by an allocation screen allowing service controllers to see WIP with each field service mechanic as well as manage job process queues.
Don't be caught out by slack OH&S record keeping. The Baseplan Fleet and Asset management module provides comprehensive service history on each asset for work health and safety requirements. The system allows for simple management of fleet inspection processes, equipment calibration schedules, safety sheets, fleet alerts, de-hire inspections and any accompanying processes and documentation needed for each asset.
OUT AND ABOUT WITH BASEPLAN"One of the reasons we went with Baseplan is because it is so scalable. Managing our growth is our biggest challenge, but with Baseplan we could have another five branches and wouldn't have to change anything." - Luke Geelan, Managing Director, Shorehire.
Do you think the only way to get your data is by being in the office or workshop? Don't let inefficient processes impact your productivity.
