Accruent’s TMS is an industry-leading computerized maintenance management system (CMMS), providing purpose-built solutions for the healthcare industry while also providing comprehensive solutions to manufacturing, property management, education and other industries.

Keeping a healthcare system performing optimally means minimizing asset downtime, increasing patient safety, and ensuring compliance with continually changing policies, laws and regulations. TMS is a comprehensive healthcare CMMS solution that centralizes assets and service across your entire health system, drives quality improvements and ensures compliance.

Throughout its lifecycle, our TMS solution has focused on our customers, adapting to their needs and industry changes, to produce features that allow them to successfully manage their built environment using a complete suite of comprehensive and complimentary product features.

To help our customers improve their delivery of care and optimize hospital operations, Accruent released TMS Online 2021.5.22 in January 2021 to ensure its long-term viability in the CMMS market.

TMS is now compatible with Microsoft’s Edge browser, ensuring our customers can continue to take advantage of this industry-leading product without concern of discontinuance. Additionally, new key features have also been added.

Meeting Industry Needs with Packaged Automations

Another area TMS has continued to grow is in the development and availability of Automation Packages. These software add-ons provide supported, standard solutions to specific industry workflows and allow customers to become more efficient in operating TMS.

  • PM Management. Provides automated processes, data, forms, and analytics to support the 2016 changes in regulatory requirements regarding assets\space in use or assets\space not available when scheduled preventive maintenance or inspections are scheduled.
  • Asset Management. Contains automated processes, data, forms, and analytics to allow schedule management by manufacturer and model, produce acceptance\incoming inspection records while creating the asset record, improve visibility of service activity by recording PM and repair dates on the asset, providing for standardized values for risk classification, AEM Inclusion, vendor identification, and multiple automations between work orders and assets.
  • Pre-defined Procedures. This package provides automation that allows customers to define what procedures are pre-assigned to work orders based on type, skill, asset, or any combination thereof. The goal is to equip your team with the right safety and service procedures immediately, allowing them to be more efficient while also ensure compliance with safety protocols.
  • Work Order Deficiency. Provides automated processes, data, forms, and analytics that produce work orders from failed\deficient sub procedures. An asset is not required, works on all work order types, and will produce child work orders for each created record, including with scheduled work orders.
