QBCon Says

Many companies don't realise the value a CMMS can add to the production process. Knowing when a particular machine needs maintenance helps production plants schedule maintenance times that don't coincide with production times, thereby increasing profit.

A preventative maintenance schedule also ensures that production isn't unexpectedly interrupted by breakdowns. Furthermore a CMMS ensures that companies can always prove safety compliance.
