Case Study: Apollo America achieves better maintenance accountability with Fiix CMMS

How Apollo America used relationship building to break away from the daily status-quo

Apollo America, one of the world’s largest manufacturers of smoke detectors and notification devices, was still relying on paper, spreadsheets, and manual tracking for maintenance work. When Terry Horicutt joined as facilities and maintenance manager, he found that Fiix CMMS was already in place, but it was underused and not delivering the accountability or efficiency the team needed.

Terry worked to build trust and buy-in across the organization so Apollo America could better adopt the Fiix CMMS platform. By leveraging Fiix and encouraging team collaboration, the company improved its maintenance approach, reduced reliance on manual processes, and created better accountability for work orders and maintenance data.
