The lean-stack take

Lean teams use it to run preventive maintenance and TPM. Technicians and operators log work orders, run checklists and record downtime from a phone, so reliability data is captured where the work happens.

Best for

Plants and facilities that want to move maintenance off paper and get technicians and operators logging work on mobile.

Watch out for

Parts inventory, meter-based maintenance and the API start on the Premium plan, so check which tier your use case needs.

What MaintainX offers

01

Work orders

Create, assign and track work orders across sites, with photos and messaging attached. This is the core record of every maintenance job.

Preventive maintenance

Schedule repeating work by time or trigger it by meter readings. This supports planned maintenance, one of the pillars of TPM.

03

Procedures and checklists

Digitize inspections and safety checks as step-by-step procedures. Useful for autonomous maintenance routines run by operators.

04

Asset management

Track equipment history and health in one place, so repeat failures are easy to spot.

05

Parts inventory

Monitor stock levels, reorder parts and manage purchase orders on the Premium plan and above.

Fit

Is MaintainX right for your team?

A good fit if…

  • You are replacing paper or spreadsheet work orders
  • Technicians work mostly on the floor with phones or tablets

Look elsewhere if…

  • You need a full enterprise asset management suite with deep financials
  • You need machine-level OEE monitoring more than maintenance workflow
