Touchdown

Introduction
Millitec’s Touchdown is a software package developed, in association with Solworks, for engineering and maintenance departments. Its primary functions are the collection, organization and analysis of information relating to the everyday tasks of engineering staff working within these departments. It can help you:

Origanise your engineering department
Plan preventative maintenance
Collect task/job data including staff signatures
Analyse and report on engineering data

Applications
Organise your engineering department more effectively and efficiently.

Plan your preventative maintenance using flexible task schedules based on task templates and machine definitions allowing fine tuning of task schedules to suit every need.

Allow staff to request immediate breakdown work to be done, or allow an engineer to generate a maintenance task whilst performing his daily checklist.

Organise your engineers into shifts and automatically assign certain scheduled tasks to particular shifts or engineers.

Define tasks requiring more user interaction than just checking a box, ask for a numerical meter readings, collect notes, pick one or many items from a list of values, select ‘High, Low, Medium’.

Have one task generate another i.e. automatically generate a ‘Cleaning’ task when maintenance is finished.
Allow staff access to task schedules and engineering data on the move.

Collate and review histories of machinery and allow access to this data by your engineers whilst at work on them.

Automatically capture start, end and break times and their lengths whilst tasks are underway.

View a detailed history on each task, who started it, when, which parts were done at what times, when it was finished, who changed it, how long did it take, who passed it on to whom, who signed for it?

Features & Advantages
Simple, effective, easy to use and administer.

Targeted for tablet computers as well as the desktop (tablet computers offer the functionality of a desktop computer in a lightweight tablet or slate format for use on the move, and can be used to view complex engineering diagrams and documents and also allow access to any other existing company IT systems).

Designed and built using the latest Microsoft technologies to ensure the highest levels of robustness, security and compatability with existing systems.
One click update technology.

Secure client and server communication.

Online and offline working modes using locally cached data for when out of network access range

Benefits
Eliminate log books, paper records.

Have every task signed-off by staff and a signature captured.

Collate all your engineering data into a widely used and easily accessible central database for analysis and reporting.

Examine the productivity of your engineering department and individual staff members.

Rapidly identify problem areas and faulty machinery within a facility.
