The recent Webinar Wednesday presentation “Painting a Complete Picture for Data Quality” was presented by Matthew Binko and sponsored by Phoenix Data Systems. It was eligible for 1 credit from the ACI.
In the webinar, Binko guided HTM and HFM professionals in their search for higher quality data using a CMMS. From initial implementations to maintaining data throughout the life cycle of a database, attendees gained insight into practical workflows that provide better and more consistent data for their department. This is accomplished by optimizing preventative maintenance schedules at the proper record level, establishing model defaults and streamlining the parts process, to name a few. Combine this with a powerful reporting generator and interfaces, managers have complete control of what kind of data goes into and out of their system.
Binko welcomed questions throughout his presentation. He provided additional insights by fielding questions from several attendees. One question was, “What are some other tips you have to help with clean data or data reviews?”
In his answer, Binko explained how to use import and export tools within a CMMS. He also discussed how to filter search results within the system to achieve desired results.
Another question asked, “I noticed list view is missing data, is there a way I can require my techs to fill in the blank fields?”
Binko shared tips on how to require that specific fields be completed.
The webinar had 84 attendees for the live presentation. A recording of the session is available for on-demand viewing at 1technation.com/painting-a-complete-picture-for-data-quality.
