Syclo offers scheduling solution that works with enterprise asset management (EAM) systems
Syclo, a leading developer of mobile computing solutions, today announced the release of SMART Schedule version 3.0 for its popular dispatch and scheduling solution that works with enterprise asset management (EAM) systems. The SMART Schedule product from Syclo is built in conjunction with Clicksoftware NASDAQ (CKSW), a recognized global leader in automating scheduling products.
SMART Schedule assists organizations who service and maintain physical assets, such as equipment, plant floor, facilities and fleets, to schedule the best person to perform the most critical work on time. Solving this resource management issue enables significant improvements in worker productivity, customer satisfaction and asset reliability. Through pre-configured scheduling rules and business objectives, SMART Schedule provides planners and schedulers with a powerful tool for planning work, dispatching assignments and managing conflicts.
The latest version delivers faster update times with quicker data-exchange processing and enhanced ‘retry’ capabilities that improve fault tolerance for system downtime. This version also includes an advanced editor for on-site, fast and easy configurations to meet the special nuances of any operation.
“Field service and maintenance organizations have long struggled with the fact that a majority of the scheduling solutions on the market are very difficult to integrate with their EAM systems, and aren’t necessarily designed for a user base of skilled technicians from multiple trades,” said Jeff Kleban, Syclo’s EVP for Alliances. “With SMART Schedule, we have created the first automated scheduling and dispatch solution specifically targeted toward the EAM marketplace.”
SMART Schedule is designed to deliver a low-risk, low-cost solution for organizations to optimize their maintenance scheduling and dispatch processes. The product is deployed in an extremely compressed timeframe because it has been pre-integrated and preconfigured with many of the best-practices maintenance organizations.
