Preventative maintenance SOFTWARE

Frequently asked questions

What is preventative maintenance software and how does it benefit my business?

Preventative maintenance software helps businesses schedule, track, and manage regular equipment upkeep before breakdowns occur.

With StayOnHire's solution, you'll reduce unexpected downtime, extend asset lifespans, and lower repair costs by catching issues early. Our customers typically see maintenance costs decrease by 15-20% within the first year while equipment reliability improves dramatically.

The system transforms reactive emergency repairs into planned activities that fit your operational schedule and budget.

Does StayOnHire's preventative maintenance software work for small businesses?

Yes, StayOnHire's preventative maintenance software is designed to scale for businesses of all sizes. Small businesses often benefit most from our system, as unexpected equipment failures can have an outsized impact on operations when resources are limited.

Our usage-based pricing structure means you only pay for what you need, and the intuitive interface requires minimal training.

Many small businesses start with just a handful of critical assets and expand their maintenance program as they experience the benefits of preventative upkeep.

How does StayOnHire help track maintenance schedules across multiple locations?

StayOnHire centralises maintenance scheduling across all your locations in one cloud-based system. Regional managers can see maintenance needs for their specific sites, while headquarters maintains visibility across the entire operation.

The system automatically factors in travel time between locations when scheduling technician work and can group maintenance tasks geographically for maximum efficiency.

This approach eliminates duplicate scheduling efforts and ensures consistent maintenance practices across your business, regardless of where assets are located.

Can StayOnHire's maintenance software integrate with our existing business systems?

StayOnHire is built to connect seamlessly with your existing business tools. Common integrations include accounting software, ERP systems, inventory management platforms, and equipment telematics.

Many customers start with standalone implementation to establish their maintenance program, then gradually integrate with other systems as they optimize their processes.

We provide technical support throughout the integration process to ensure smooth data flow between systems. Please speak to your StayOnHire representative about your exact business' needs.

How long does it take to implement StayOnHire's preventative maintenance software system?

Most StayOnHire customers are up and running with basic preventative maintenance capabilities within 2-4 weeks.

The implementation timeline depends on your existing maintenance records and the number of assets you're managing.

For companies with well-organized equipment data, setup can be completed in days.

Additional data migration support and training are available if needed to ensure your team gets the most from the software.

How does preventative maintenance scheduling work for equipment with variable usage?

StayOnHire handles variable equipment usage through flexible scheduling options. You can create maintenance triggers based on calendar dates, operating hours, mileage, cycles, or even sensor readings (for accounts with telematics integrations).

For equipment with unpredictable utilization, our system can track actual usage through manual entries or automated integrations with telematics systems.

This ensures maintenance occurs when truly needed rather than on arbitrary dates. The system automatically adjusts future maintenance projections based on historical usage patterns, helping you maintain equipment reliability while avoiding unnecessary service.

What kind of maintenance reports does StayOnHire provide?

StayOnHire offers comprehensive reporting that helps you understand maintenance performance and costs.

Standard reports include maintenance compliance (scheduled vs. completed), asset reliability metrics, cost analysis by equipment type, technician productivity, and parts usage.

Custom reports can be created to address your specific business needs. All reports can be scheduled for automatic delivery to key stakeholders or accessed on-demand through the dashboard.

These insights help identify problem equipment, optimize maintenance intervals, and justify maintenance investments to management.

Can technicians access maintenance information while in the field?

Yes, StayOnHire includes mobile capabilities specifically designed for field technicians.

The mobile app works on smartphones and tablets, allowing technicians to view assigned work orders, access equipment histories, complete digital checklists, and document their work with photos and notes.

This mobile functionality eliminates paperwork, reduces administrative time, and ensures maintenance records are updated in real-time as work is completed.
