CMMS Software Won't Fix Your Downtime Problems ...
But Strategy Will.

Learn why CMMS software alone isn't the Magic Bullet you thought it was ...
And how to unlock its true potential!

The Truth:
Software doesn’t fix problems — people and processes do.

Most manufacturers invest significant resources into powerful CMMS platforms expecting fast, verifiable results including:

Data accuracy and visibility for management,
Optimized reporting for faster, easier decision making,
Reduced downtime,
Easy-to-use operator handheld devices,
Improved plant reliability, and
Streamlined workflows that optimize operational efficiency.

Then months later, they're still battling the same challenges with inaccurate, inconsistent reporting, unplanned outages, poor operator adoption, and an overwhelming backlog of work orders.

What's Missing?

A Proven Implementation Framework

It's all about the STRENGTH of your Implementation
Strategy.

1. Do You Have Well Defined Clarity?

Are ALL levels of your team aligned on the strategic purpose and priorities of your CMMS?

2. Do You Have 100% User Acceptance?

Do you offer comprehensive training that all people utilize to educate and compel each team member to embrace your system with confidence?

3. Do You Struggle With Compliance?

Have you established repeatable routines and accountability measures but don't have consistent operator compliance?

Important: Here's the Bottom Line:

If your CMMS platform lacks a plant-wide Clarity of Purpose — and if user acceptance and compliance are a constant battle between management and operators — then you’re already experiencing challenges with hidden, root-level problems.

So how do you fix them?

If you’re like most, you fall into the “Let’s buy new software to fix it” trap. The shiny brochures and polished demos promise a magical cure, so you pitch the upgrade to leadership or corporate as the solution.

Then 6 to 9 months later, you discover all the things your old system did that the new one doesn’t. Even worse — remember all the custom add-ons and workarounds you relied on with the old software? Now you have to build a bunch of new ones to fill the gaps in the new software. It’s maddening, isn't it?

If you’ve been through this, you know the truth: buying new software without solving root problems just transfers those problems from one system to the next.

The result? Same issues. New price tag.

So what does solve them?

Partnering with experienced Reliability Experts — like T5 Group — who’ve helped other plants and mills overcome the same challenges. We bring proven strategies, implementation tools, and laser-focused processes that target what’s really holding your CMMS back.

When your T5 CMMS Implementation is complete, you’ll likely reach the same conclusion many of our clients do: the problem was rarely the software, rather, it was the lack of a Strong Strategic Implementation Plan.

Let's DISCUSS My Situation

The Top 3 Challenges Plants & Mills Face With CMMS That T5 Eats For Breakfast

1. CMMS Under-Utilization

Solution: T5 develops a configuration and onboarding plan based on real, actual technician workflows used in your facility.

Result: Increased user understanding, and adoption, reduced resistance, and better data capture. Without accurate, consistent data capture, the CMMS fails.

2. Work Orders - Incomplete or Inaccurate

Solution: T5 configures task templates and technician prompts directly in the interface. It's not a one-size-fits-all template, rather a unique template for each use case customized to make it fast and easy for technician entry.

Result: Consistent documentation, faster closeouts, and more accurate maintenance records.

3. Downtime Isn’t Improving

Solution: We align CMMS usage with predictive technologies (vibration, thermography, ultrasound, and others) and provide real failure modes.

Result: Measurable reductions in reactive work and improved MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures).

Strategy & Planning

Our Reliability Experts meet with your leadership, engineering, and maintenance teams throughout all phases of the Implementation but most importantly at the beginning to understand and define what success looks like collectively in your eyes.

This helps us gather and understand all expectations, goals, challenges, roadblocks, user scenarios, and IT infrastructural limitations that establish a comprehensive scope of requirements that determines the project road map and timeline.

Configuration & Optimization

Our Reliability Experts align your MAINTelligence configuration to your plant's actual workflows, assets, and reliability priorities based on the objectives outlines in the Phase 1 Strategic Plan.

We work with decision makers in all levels of the plant to determine the best path forward to build out the CMMS in a way that dovetails existing systems and processes with the new strategy. This may involve changes to existing systems or workflows that may include changes and optimizations to ERP systems to achieve desired outcomes.

Onsite Training & Deployment

Our Reliability Experts train your people — from leadership to management to operators — and ensure they own and embrace the new system.

Adoption and support of the new system by all people who use it is not only the most critical predictor of success, but also, if not done correctly, can result in failed outcomes.

Our reputation for having vast experience and expertise in Training & Deployment the systems we architect is the primary reason our customers choose T5 for this critical phase.

Follow-up Support & Future Innovation

Our Reliability Experts offer continued coaching and support to all user groups and departments to ensure adoption and long-term impact. We are also available for future project innovations.
