FEATURES
The product consists of the following integrated modules:
Work Orders
The work order (WO) module is a multipurpose center of activity for maintenance
operations. It is designed to help managers balance the requests for service
with the available work force as well as the priority of the service requests.
It enables managers to allocate unassigned or incomplete work orders to maintenance
personnel, keep track of progress of assigned work orders, and reassign work
if need be.

codes that represent the failure and work accomplished codes that indicate
task performed.
Preventive Maintenance
This is module helps customers avoid costly repairs by providing information
necessary to schedule and track preventive maintenance. The Alexus Preventive
Maintenance module was developed with the understanding that "prevention
is better than cure" and that timely preventive maintenance leads to
more efficient operations and therefore substantial cost-savings.

to manage their entire purchasing process. This system works in tandem with
the other modules and has the capability to automatically generate purchase
