Guidance on Successful Computer Maintenance Management System (CMMS) Selection and Practices

This guidebook documents and presents the results of a study of the Computer Maintenance Management System (CMMS) practices in airports in the U.S. at the current time through surveys and case studies. It further delivers evaluation, selection and implementation guidelines for use by airports of varied sizes and budgets. Features and capabilities of a CMMS are outlined for reference during the selection process. Good implementation practices and lessons learned from the research are presented to assist airports in their own implementation. The findings of the study suggest that the preparation of the airport for an implementation should include an extensive requirements definition process to assure that the software selection fits the airport’s needs, and that the configuration of the software be tailored to suit the airport’s business processes.
