How to Manage Maintenance Teams with Odoo

Functional

A group of maintenance experts who are part of an organization or work for the manufacturers of different equipment can be termed as a maintenance team. The support of a maintenance team is essential for the smooth operation of a manufacturing industry. In an industry there will be different types of machines and other equipment for the smooth management of the business.
For example, if you are running a textile Industry, namely Cybrosys, we will have to use looms, sewing machines, dying instruments and a number of other machines for the manufacturing process. Besides, we will have to depend on a set of computers and related devices for coordinating the operations in the industry.
In such a situation, the business will have to manage and maintain different equipment categories in a systematic manner. Here comes the significance of managing maintenance teams. In a large industry, where we use different categories of equipment, we will have to manage different maintenance teams also.
Odoo is an ultimate solution for your maintenance team management worries. With this software tool, that provides you with an open platform to handle all business related tasks; we can manage maintenance teams and assess their performances. We can use the maintenance module of Odoo for managing this task. Here, Odoo helps us to configure maintenance teams, entrust them with different tasks and review their performances.
This blog can be used to know how to use Odoo 14 for maintenance team management. 
Odoo Maintenance Module is a module that can be fully integrated with Odoo manufacturing module. Hence, we can consider this as a tool that works in sync with the manufacturing module. After installing Odoo Maintenance we can move on to the Configuration menu.

Benefits of Maintenance Team Management
A maintenance team will help you to manage all types of maintenance related operations with ease. The team can support the business to ensure the fitness of different equipment categories. The maintenance team will be responsible to carry out preventive and corrective maintenance in an industry.
Now we can check the major benefits of constituting a maintenance team

1. Systematize maintenance operations
A maintenance team will help the company to manage all maintenance related activities in a systematic way. The team will assure support to clear all maintenance requests on the basis of the emergency or priority of the request. It will help to list out and schedule different maintenance tasks and manage the tasks without missing out the tasks. As all To Do tasks will be listed out in the Odoo Maintenance Team view the team members are sure to notice all maintenance requests and complete the repair work.
2. Support maintenance planning
In a manufacturing industry there should be proper planning to carry out the maintenance operations. That means, all preventive maintenance have to be scheduled properly and all managed in a timely manner. The scheduled time has to be followed strictly. The maintenance teams will be able to manage this efficiently as the maintenance calendar will display all the scheduled maintenance operations helping to plan efficiently.
3. Ensure productivity
An efficient maintenance team will be able to operate in an exceptional way to settle all repair related operations. We can manage different tasks in a planned way and hence plan the maintenance work in a way that the productive hours are not affected. For Example, if we are carrying out preventive maintenance, an efficient team will make sure that the work is done during unproductive hours so that the work centre is utilised to its maximum during productive hours. The same way a maintenance team will be able to offer quick corrective maintenance support to minimize productivity loss.
4. Improved efficiency of equipment
The maintenance team is capable of carrying out regular check-ups of the equipment categories so that the machines do not encounter any technical failures. A team can develop and implement the most efficient preventive maintenance scheme for the company. Besides, it can support your business to fix all equipment related issues and minimize the scrapping of equipment.
