# What this system does

> A maintenance operating system that decides what maintenance is needed, who should do it, whether the job can actually be executed, and what the outcome teaches.

This is a maintenance management system built around the maintenance lifecycle rather than around a
ticket queue. It tracks your equipment, decides what work that equipment needs, works out whether a
contract or warranty covers it, finds the right person for it, checks the job can actually be done
before anyone is sent, and records what the outcome teaches about the machine.

## Who uses it

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Technicians">
    Technicians pick up jobs on the [field app](/field/overview), work through the checklist at the
    machine, record hours, parts, meter readings and photographs, and close the job — with or
    without a network. Everything queues locally and syncs later.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Planners">
    Planners triage [requests](/work/requests), build [maintenance plans](/maintenance/plan-builder),
    watch the [capacity plan](/work/capacity) for the day that will not fit, and use the
    [dispatch board](/work/dispatch) to put the right person on the right job.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Supervisors">
    Supervisors run the shop floor: assigning and reassigning work, moving preventive rounds,
    recording failures, and clearing what is blocked.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Storekeepers">
    Storekeepers manage [parts](/inventory/parts) across stores, issue against jobs, and work the
    [reorder list](/inventory/reorder) before a shortage stops a repair.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Managers and executives">
    Managers watch backlog, SLA and cost. Executives read the [board view](/get-started/dashboards):
    availability, MTBF, MTTR, PM compliance, downtime and what needs attention.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Administrators">
    Administrators configure the plant — [sites and locations](/setup/sites),
    [people and access](/setup/access), the [statuses](/config/statuses) and
    [fields](/config/custom-fields) the rest of the product is built on, and the
    [rules](/config/rules) that decide what happens without anybody asking.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## How the pieces fit

An **asset** is the machine. A **work request** is somebody reporting that something is wrong. A
**work order** is the job itself. A **maintenance plan** raises work orders on a schedule. A
**requirement** is what a job needs before it can start — a part, a tool, a skill, a vendor. An
**entitlement** decides whether a contract or warranty pays for it.

<Note>
  Almost everything in the lists below — statuses, priorities, types, categories — is configurable
  per organisation. What this documentation shows are the defaults a new organisation starts with.
  Your plant may have renamed them. See [statuses and transitions](/config/statuses).
</Note>

<Card title="Start here" icon="rocket" href="/quickstart">
  Sign in, find your way around, and follow a job from request to close.
</Card>
