GDS The Asset Guardian

Our CMMS software, The Asset Guardian, is the
perfect solution for companies with assets that
require scheduled, preventive maintenance,
unscheduled repair or inspection as part of their life
cycle. Unpredictable events, such as breakdown
repair or emergency intervention, are also handled
with ease. The Asset Guardian allows you to
pre-define the maintenance or inspection intervals
for assets as well as the specific technicians and/or

technician qualifications required to complete the event. The Asset Guardian also
makes it easy to associate specific tools, consumables and MRO inventory items with
any event when it occurs. The Asset Guardian never forgets to schedule an event,
never forgets to record the history on an event and always keeps accurate statistics on
your assets.

Events

The capability to pre-define work steps, in single or multiple levels, for any asset or
multilevel sub-assembly is provided. In addition, electronic informational portals to
the web, videos, images, CAD/CAM drawings, and/or documents are available all the
way down to each step or sub-step involved in a maintenance event if desired. In fact,
The Asset Guardian lets you define the rules for when an event should occur, how

it should be handled and what ancillary
materials are required to close the event.
The rules may define maintenance intervals
that are time based, meter based, either or
both.

Once the assets and the rules are
established, The Asset Guardian schedules
the qualifying events and creates
maintenance orders for either planning
purposes or execution as desired. An
interactive scheduling matrix is then
displayed on our Dispatch Board showing
event and technician schedules by calendar
day for those orders awaiting execution.
The dynamic change feature in the Dispatch
Board allows you the flexibility to make
changes to the event schedule and/or
technician assignments to meet your needs.
