Tool management for installations companies
For many years, Centix has been used by numerous installation companies for tool and asset management. In Centix Online, a total of more than 12 million objects are managed. Centix offers a wide range of useful features, such as carrying out inspections quickly and efficiently, automatically calling in tools for inspection, and easily relocating or lending out assets via Centix OnSite.
In addition, Centix is used for the maintenance and service processes of installations and/or machine components. With Centix, you can easily create service or fault report forms. Your customer can access these via a QR code and report a malfunction. By using an API, it is also possible to fully automate the processing of notifications within Centix that originate from IoT sensor data from installations and machines. For example, a sensor signal from the air-handling unit on the roof of a building can automatically result in a high-priority work order.
Do you have service contracts with your customers? Centix features an extensive service contracts module. Your engineers can be dispatched easily using our user-friendly app Centix Work Order.
Management of tools to an efficient service department
Registering and transferring tools by location, employee, vehicle or project is easy to manage with Centix. For service organisations, Centix is widely used to organise the activities of field service engineers. Using work orders, engineers are directed in their work and can record hours, materials and other relevant information.
Tool management
The tool manager has a complete overview of where equipment is located and its current status. Tools can be easily transferred between the warehouse, employees, vehicles or projects. With Centix OnSite, you can work anytime and anywhere, and even carry out inspections on the spot.
Service organisation
The work order is central to the service organisation. The planning board provides an overview of the scheduled work orders, after which the engineer sets off using Centix Work Order. With the app, work orders can be completed, materials and hours can be added, and inspections can be carried out.
Service notification
With the help of QR code stickers on installations, these can be easily identified. In addition, your customers can easily submit a fault report using Centix OnSite. A work order is then created, after which an engineer can be dispatched.
With your own portal easy and fast access to the correct information for everyone!
By giving your customers access to the customer portal, they can easily view their own assets, certificates and related information. Using QR code stickers, customers and employees can quickly access the correct information. In just a few clicks, a fault can be reported, a certificate or manual can be viewed, or a tool, installation or machine can be maintained and inspected.
Your own webshop for ordering tools, PPE, or clothing?
The Centix webshop is easy to use and also has a polished, professional look. With a flexible editor, you can customise both the product pages and the webshop to suit your own requirements, and your employees can order supplies for both projects and personal use. The fulfilment of these orders can be handled efficiently with Centix Logistics.
