When I asked Andrew how his MPulse software helps with his workload, his answer was straightforward. \u201cI couldn\u2019t manage our vendor documentation and warranties without it,\u201d he told me. Manage Service Level Agreements (SLAs) Before his company purchased MPulse, Andrew\u2019s maintenance team relied on paper and pencil as well as an Excel spreadsheet for their vendor management information and schedules. Today Andrew manages all his service level agreements (SLA) in MPulse\u2014which documents contact information, personnel, rates, and more. Plus, he connects those records with asset history and warranty information as well as scheduled preventive maintenance (PM) tasks. The result of SLA driven operations is an improved and automated system that links Andrew\u2019s vendors and the work orders generated by his CMMS system. He can assign work to vendors and email work order details quickly and easily.
