Fleet Repairs & Maintenance

Yes! texting issues gets lost or forgotten, putting all your trucks and equipment in aspire creates solid records of what needs repairs.  You can also easily track depreciation and how often repairs are being done to easily identify “bad” equipment.  Putting what equipment you use on jobs helps track how often you are really using it too.

Are you using the schedule board for this part of it though?

Thank you for your reply...We do have all equipment in Aspire Equipment Module but our main question is anyone using the schedule board & inventory to create work tickets for mechanics to use for repairs and maintenance. 

Not for repairs, although I could see it working similarly, but we do use the schedule board for our garden center upkeep. Create an overhead/indirect service, and then in your case I would recommend as needed on the service so you could schedule tickets as much as you need, then just put the info that you need your mechanic to see on ticket notes. As far as inventory, I could see a case for using things like oil, filters, etc that you know you’ll use a lot. All the one off purchases I think the better route would be creating purchase receipts against those particular work tickets.

Hope that helps!

I would like to know if anyone has done this; use scheduling board to assign work for mechanics to work on specific equipment. 

Let’s say there is an issue created for a piece of equipment. Can I add that to the schedule for a mechanic in Aspire?

Or, if there is a “Service Due”, can i add that to a mechanic to work on on the scheduling board?

Great question Tmcmiller.  We just added the fleet maintenance platform and I have the same question.  I also wanted to ask if anyone is aware of any fleet maintenance training resources available in Aspire Care, or anywhere else?  Trying to learn the program.
