Case Study: Joplin Schools achieves $30K annual savings and faster work-order resolution with FMX

School District in Missouri Saves $30k Per Year With FMX

Joplin Schools, a Missouri district serving about 7,700 students across 17 schools, struggled with a fragmented maintenance process that relied on paper work orders, forced staff to pick up assignments daily, and required multiple software tools with no reporting—making it hard to communicate status or justify facility needs.

By adopting FMX as a single, user‑friendly system with responsive customer support and built‑in reporting, the district consolidated operations, improved asset maintenance, and regained administrative time. The change has saved Joplin Schools roughly $30,000 per year, freed the Administrative Assistant about 10 hours per week, and cut average work order resolution from 45 days to under 14 days.
