The system integrates directly with inventory management, ensuring that any parts or materials needed for maintenance are tracked and available ahead of time.Work Order Management
Streamline maintenance operations by creating work orders for scheduled and unscheduled tasks. Assign work orders to technicians, track status updates, and log all repairs and replacements. The integration with Inventory Management ensures real-time tracking of all parts and tools used for repairs, maintaining an accurate and up-to-date parts inventory, and preventing delays caused by missing components.Comprehensive Asset Tracking
Track and manage every piece of equipment throughout its lifecycle, including procurement, maintenance history, and warranty details. The Inventory Management integration enables seamless tracking of spare parts and materials associated with each asset, helping to monitor usage trends and plan future inventory purchases.Inventory Management Integration
Maintain a well-organized and accurate inventory of spare parts, tools, and consumables required for maintenance tasks. The Inventory Management system automatically updates stock levels when parts are used during repairs or preventive maintenance, ensuring reorders are triggered in a timely manner. You can set minimum and maximum stock levels for critical items, receive alerts when inventory is low, and avoid delays caused by stockouts.Cost Tracking, Reporting, and Analytics
Kechie ERP tracks not only the costs associated with labor and parts but also provides comprehensive reports on inventory usage related to equipment maintenance.

FAQ
Common Questions About Kechie Equipment Maintenance Software
Kechie's Equipment Maintenance module is built for manufacturers, distributors, and any business that relies on machinery and equipment to run their operations. It helps maintenance teams schedule preventive maintenance, manage work orders, track equipment history, and ensure the right spare parts are always available — all from within the Kechie ERP system, without switching between separate tools or spreadsheets.
Kechie automates preventive maintenance scheduling based on real-time equipment usage data or predefined time intervals — whichever makes more sense for your operation. The system generates alerts, assigns tasks to the right technicians, and triggers parts requests against your inventory automatically. This means maintenance happens on schedule, not after something breaks down.
The Equipment Maintenance module is fully integrated with Kechie's Inventory Management — which is a significant advantage over standalone maintenance tools. When a work order is created, the system checks parts availability in real time. When parts are consumed during a repair or scheduled maintenance, inventory levels update automatically. Minimum and maximum stock levels can be set for critical spare parts, and reorder alerts trigger before you run out — so unplanned downtime caused by missing components becomes far less likely.
Yes. Kechie tracks every asset from procurement through its full operational life — including maintenance history, repair records, parts used, warranty details, and associated costs. This lifecycle view helps operations managers identify patterns, plan future maintenance budgets, decide when equipment should be retired or replaced, and ensure warranty coverage is being used effectively.
In addition to scheduled preventive maintenance, Kechie supports unscheduled work orders for reactive maintenance — when something breaks unexpectedly. Technicians can create emergency work orders immediately, the system logs all repairs and parts used, and the full incident is captured in the equipment's history. This gives management visibility into which equipment is most failure-prone and where maintenance investment is most needed.
Kechie tracks labor costs, parts costs, and total maintenance spend at the work order level and across your entire equipment fleet. Built-in reports give maintenance managers and leadership visibility into spending trends, cost per asset, inventory usage tied to maintenance activities, and overall maintenance performance. This data makes it easier to optimize both your maintenance strategy and your spare parts stocking levels — reducing waste while keeping operations running smoothly.
