Case Study: Simplot Australia boosts maintenance efficiency with MEX CMMS

Simplot Australia boosts preventative maintenance to 35% with MEX

Simplot Australia, a major food and beverage producer, faced challenges managing over 1,000 annual work orders with a manual, paper-based system. This time-consuming process provided little data, poor expense control, and minimal analysis. With a limited budget, they chose MEX and its CMMS for mid-market, initially viewing it as a low-cost option with potential limitations.

The MEX solution provided an easy-to-use and highly customizable computerized maintenance management system. Implementation led to a massive increase in efficiency, with the plant now producing 10,000 work orders annually. Using MEX to manage its inventory of 7,800 items resulted in a stocktake variance of just 2%. Preventative maintenance work increased from 25% to 35%, and management gained comprehensive records and visibility into maintenance spending.
