The Field Inspection: Customer success stories (part 1)

Back in October 2023, we held our 3rd annual user conference, Fiix Forward, in Nashville, Tennessee. The conference wasn’t just our chance to tell you about what we’ve been doing as a company, but it’s true purpose was to give you, our community, a chance to feel heard, seen, and understood.  As part of that promise, we conducted interviews, where individuals like you shared their maintenance troubles, triumphs, and resilience that led to their success. Those stories have been captured and will be shared with our customers in hopes that others will be inspired. With that being said, we are excited to share our first two videos of the series:  JJ McDonnell Co. Inc, a leader in seafood processing and distribution, was busy trying to keep operations afloat before Fiix. In that line of work, every minute of downtime spells disaster, products spoiling, deliveries delayed, and resources wasted.Thankfully, @MgarnerJJ has been hard at work implementing the Fiix CMMS. In a short period of time,

The Field Inspection: Customer success stories (part 2)

Building on our field inspection stories, where industry professionals just like you share their maintenance challenges, victories, and the perseverance that paved their path to success, we bring you part 2 of the interviews conducted at Fiix Forward!We hope these stories can spark inspiration for all Fiixers, regardless of where you are in your journey. Daikin ComfortJoel is an excellent motivator, successfully leading his team through the process and organizational challenges that come with new software.  Before implementing Fiix the team was challenged with incomplete data sets and manual parts tracking. This left them with huge gaps in reporting financial spending, making capital and maintenance planning hard.  Luckily Joel and his team found solace in the Fiix CMMS. He stressed that Fiix helped the team get into the habit of tracking things in the CMMS. He mentions that knowing everything about the machine, like how much time is spent on repairs, how many parts are being consumed,
