MVP Capture Barcode Solution Saves MP2 Users Time & Money

2011-02-02T14:50:00.001-06:00

What is MVP Capture? MVP Capture is a barcode solution that uses barcode scanners to track complete and accurate maintenance data (work, parts, labor, comments, downtime, etc.) and uploads this information to MP2 wirelessly (no paper!). Equipment, parts, work orders, etc. are all identified with a barcode. Maintenance technicians and inventory personnel simply scan the barcode they need to enter, eliminating all data collection and entry errors while saving a tremendous amount of time and increasing employee productivity.

Which Piece of Equipment Costs the Most?

2010-11-08T08:49:00.001-06:00

Use MP2 to track and report on labor and parts costs for each piece of equipment. Information is power and knowing which piece of equipment costs the most provides a window of opportunity to focus on that piece of equipment to minimize its labor and parts costs. Continue this process until all equipment maintenance costs have been minimized and thus, profits maximized.

CMMS Data Group Announces Plug & Play Lube Storage Rooms with MP2 Integration!

2010-10-11T13:57:00.001-05:00

The Issue
Most petroleum-based lubricants stored in ambient-controlled conditions (not suffering temperature swings) last for 30 years. However, most lubricants are not stored in ambient-controlled conditions: temperature swings allow moisture, foreign material, and other contaminants to enter the storage containers, resulting in reduced lube life and lubrication effectiveness. The end result: shortened equipment life, even failures.

Properly storing lubricants, and lube equipment, can greatly extend their life and effectiveness. However, finding an area in the plant that is isolated, free of contamination, and temperature- and humidity-controlled can be extremely difficult. If such a project is undertaken, it is either cost-prohibitive or impossible to even find the space within the facility.

The Solution
Plug & Play Lube Storage Rooms offer a mobile lube storage room delivered to your plant. Select a space in your plant, inside or outside, supply the power, and presto, you have a state-of-the-art lube storage room. The rooms are insulated, climate-controlled, heated, air conditioned, and even de-humidified in some geographic areas.

CMMS Users
Integrate lube consumption directly to MVP Plant & MP2.

MVP Capture Wireless, CMMS Data Group's Flagship Barcode Solution, Available for MP2!

2010-07-22T09:29:00.001-05:00

MVP Capture is a barcode solution that uses barcode scanners to track complete and accurate maintenance data (work, parts, labor, comments, downtime, etc.) and uploads this information to MP2 paperlessly and wirelessly. Equipment, parts, work orders, etc. are all identified with a barcode. Maintenance technicians and inventory personnel simply scan the barcode they need to enter, eliminating all data collection and entry errors while saving a tremendous amount of time.

Current MVP Capture customers not only save time and money with regard to data processing, they also find that response times have dramatically improved (5 minutes down to 15 seconds) and Maintenance and Facilities workers get more work done because they don’t have to walk back and forth to the shop unnecessarily to get new job assignments…work orders are simply transmitted and updated wirelessly.

Share MP2 Inventory & Equipment Task Data via the Web with Inventory Web Query (IWQ)!

2010-02-08T13:26:00.000-06:00

Via your Intranet or the Internet, IWQ provides a quick, easy, and affordable way to share MP2 inventory AND equipment task data within your plant, as well as with sister plants, even if the plants are NOT currently connected via MP2 6.0/1 Enterprise. With IWQ, there is no need to buy additional MP2 seats only to give users access to search for parts, spare parts lists, and equipment tasks. From anywhere in the world, IWQ:

-Allows parts to be found using multiple search criteria, not only a single field like MP2.
-Displays part details on one page, not multiple tabs like MP2.
-Enables users to search for spare parts lists by equipment.
-Allows plants to share equipment task data.

IWQ is easy to use and saves time and money!

A quick, guided online demo of IWQ is available and can be scheduled at your convenience.

Free Upgrade from MP2 Access and MP2 6.0 SQL to MP2 6.1!

2010-01-27T11:41:00.001-06:00

MP2 Access and MP2 6.0 SQL customers who are current with their MP2 technical support contract have the option to receive the latest version of MP2, MP2 6.1, for free. MP2 6.1 runs on a SQL database and SQL databases tend to be more stable and can hold a lot more data than Access databases. General information from one of our vendors regarding Access databases follows:

"In our experience, and according to Microsoft (MS), MS Access databases around 2 MB in size or larger are prone to crashing, corruption and poor performance. This is because MS Access was only designed for smaller, infrequently-updated databases."

Worldwide Food Expo 2009!

2009-11-30T09:14:00.001-06:00

CMMS Data Group's attendance at the Worldwide Food Expo this past October in Chicago at McCormick Place was a success! The crowd was quite interested in the products and services, especially MVP Capture, that we provide for MP2. MVP Capture is a state-of-the-art solution using barcode technology to collect work order, inventory, PO receiving, and meter data quickly and easily, and deposits this data into MP2 wirelessly or with the click of a button. Customers say that with MVP Capture, technicians are more productive because work orders appear on their handhelds and they no longer have to walk back and forth to the Maintenance shop to get, turn in, or manually update paper work orders.

Integrate MP2 with PLCs controlled via an OPC server!

2009-05-12T09:35:00.000-05:00

CMMS data group’s PLC/MP2 Integration Package seamlessly links your PLCs to MP2. MP2 gets automatically updated with complete and accurate meter and statistical predictive maintenance (SPM) readings, eliminating data entry to save time and money. Alerts may be set up notifying you that a certain reading has hit. Additional time and money is saved when maintenance is performed only on the equipment requiring it or before a piece of equipment fails. As plants move to from calendar-based PMs to meter-based PMs, plant performance peaks.

Contact us today to purchase the PLC/MP2 Integration Package or for additional information.
