Maintaining accurate, up-to-date equipment records enables manufacturers to provide potential clients an immediate snapshot of their capabilities, and can help manufacturers identify areas for expansion.
In addition, accurate records help ensure that equipment undergoes regular safety and performance inspections and maintenance, keeping productivity high, minimising delays due to equipment break-downs and ensuring consistency of results.
