Case Study: Carlisle Area School District achieves 50% CMMS cost savings with FMX

Pennsylvania-based School District Reduces TCO by 50% with FMX

Carlisle Area School District, a Pennsylvania K–12 district serving about 5,098 students, struggled with a costly, inflexible CMMS that couldn’t be customized to meet its maintenance, equipment tracking, and delivery needs. Rising fees and limited functionality made it difficult for staff and contracted vendors to coordinate requests and keep historical maintenance data accessible.

By switching to FMX, the district gave staff and vendors a centralized, mobile-friendly system that supports photos, equipment history, custom supply & receiving requests, and shared invoicing—features the custodial team now uses daily. The result: easier workflows, better tracking and communication, and a 50% reduction in total CMMS costs.
