Case Study: LifeSouth Community Blood Centers achieves time and cost savings with Accruent's Maintenance Connection CMMS

Saving Time and Money with Improved Maintenance of Critical Medical Equipment

A Florida-based non-profit community blood bank that serves more than 100 hospitals across 20 branches in three states struggled to track hundreds of assets — including roughly 100 fleet vehicles and critical blood‑processing equipment — with a paper-based system, creating risks of costly breakdowns and challenges meeting FDA and other regulatory requirements.

The organization implemented Accruent’s Maintenance Connection CMMS to digitize records, centralize tracking, and schedule preventive maintenance across locations. As a result, repair costs and downtime declined, maintenance became more consistent and compliant, and the maintenance team grew more mobile and productive.
