Key Benefits
Some of the key benefits of Smart IPCTM include:
Faster Maintenance Turn Times
Smart IPC reduces time spent identifying parts by providing equipment-specific parts lists with hyperlinked illustrations. When integrated or linked with other maintenance and parts procurement information systems, Smart IPC can provide a single point of entry to all of your mission-critical parts information. Its time-saving features result in faster maintenance turn times, reducing your maintenance and parts procurement related costs.
Streamlines Cross-Departmental Processes
Smart IPC enables streamlined exchange of "Smart Cart" parts lists and parts-related communications between Maintenance, Engineering, and Procurement or Purchasing departments. Your entire organization benefits from a centralized and standardized "hub" for all parts-related information.
Interfaces with Related Parts and Maintenance Information Systems
Smart IPC can be linked to various back end ERP parts inventory and procurement systems. This integration allows you to export selected parts lists from Smart IPC to query inventory and other records in your own internal systems. Users are able to view and interact with screens in external systems from within the Smart IPC interface.
Greatly Reduces Errors in Exchange of Parts-Related Information
When all of your maintenance-related departments use Smart IPC as a centralized point of entry, the possibility of errors associated with manually writing down part numbers or re-keying part number information into a separate system is greatly reduced. This improved accuracy helps eliminate purchases of incorrect parts associated with data entry errors; this may ultimately help to decrease the level of excess parts inventory on hand and reduce your inventory costs.
