The company was struggling with tracking scheduled maintenance events and managing its assets efficiently. The traditional methods of using multiple spreadsheets, calendars, and paper-based systems were proving to be inefficient and error-prone. This lack of a centralized system led to unnecessary servicing of vehicles due to scheduling errors, resulting in wastage of labor and parts. Moreover, ensuring compliance with scheduled maintenance events was a significant concern as it posed an audit exposure for the company. Read More
