Case Study: St. Joseph’s Academy achieves justified additional staffing and streamlined facilities maintenance with FMX

Catholic School in Missouri Justifies Additional Staffing and Expenses with FMX

St. Joseph’s Academy, a Missouri Catholic school founded in 1840 that reported 100% college acceptance for its 2018 class, faced operational pain from a legacy CMMS that didn’t allow multiple technician assignments, couldn’t track event inventory, and required too many steps to submit work orders. Staff often reverted to email or phone requests, custodians avoided late-night submissions, and weekly meetings were needed just to coordinate events and maintenance.

FMX delivered a user-friendly CMMS implemented in two weeks that made it easy for staff to submit work orders around the clock, created an effective workflow that eliminated lengthy weekly meetings, and added preventive maintenance checklists for technicians and custodians. The school now uses FMX reporting to curb unnecessary event scheduling, justify additional staffing and expenses, and relies on FMX’s customer success team for ongoing support.
