Though, Document Management is not a key feature of a Maintenance Management System, the proper management of documents relating to any maintenance work step is an important factor which needs to be considered if you expect to work with an advanced computerized system. Documents occur in every part of the maintenance process and appear in many different aspects. Regardless of the document type, whether office, PDF, graphical, CAD, voice, video or any other type of file, each type has to be managed by a powerful CMMS. Furthermore, the simultaneous access to files has to be managed thus in front of the aspect that many users in different departments work with the system at the same time. Displaying the document content with powerful viewing features like zoom, pan, print, is another aspect in particular when the application for the document type is not implemented to the users workstations. Last but not least, the authorization to access and manage documents through different types of users is also an aspect that needs to be considered by a powerful CMMS. The Document Management System is a fully integrated module in the M6 CMMS system which supports all these capabilities.
