Breakdown Management in Keep Wisely enables organizations to log, track, and resolve unplanned asset failures using a centralized CMMS workflow. It ensures faster response, controlled repair processes, and complete visibility into breakdown incidents across assets and locations.

Challenges Addressed

Unreported or delayed breakdown reporting

Failures are communicated informally, causing response delays. Centralized breakdown logging ensures instant visibility.

Lack of structured breakdown handling

Breakdown repairs follow ad-hoc processes. Standardized CMMS workflows bring control and consistency.

Slow response and escalation delays

Critical failures are not prioritized correctly. Priority-based breakdown handling accelerates response time.

No visibility into downtime and failure patterns

Organizations cannot analyze recurring failures. Breakdown data enables root cause analysis.
