Computerized maintenance management systems: how to match your department's needs with commercially available
1University of California Davis Medical Center, Sacramento, CA 95817, USA.
Abstract:
Computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS) are used by clinical engineering departments to collect, store, analyze and report data on the repair and maintenance performed on medical devices and other equipment. Evaluation of commercial CMMS require a careful requirements analysis and then a comprehensive evaluation of the products available in the marketplace that can come the closest to meeting those requirements. This paper provides a comprehensive list of evaluation questions to use to determine the best software system for a clinical engineering department's needs.
