UpKeep's New Product Enhancements: A Closer Look

In the ever-evolving landscape of maintenance management, UpKeep continues to lead the way with its commitment to enhancing user experience and functionality. The latest product enhancements bring a host of features that cater to the needs of technicians, administrators, and maintenance managers alike. Let's delve into the exciting enhancements that UpKeep has rolled out.

Mobile Photo Enhancements

One of the key frustrations addressed in this update is the mobile photo uploading experience. Technicians no longer need to contend with the tedious process of uploading photos one by one. The latest enhancements allow users to:

  • Upload multiple photos at once on a request and work order.

  • Upload an unlimited number of photos for a request and work order.

  • Enjoy a more intuitive and user-friendly interface when creating a request and work order.

These improvements aim to streamline the workflow, making it more efficient and user-friendly for technicians who rely on mobile devices for their daily tasks.

Work Order List Filters on Mobile for Child Assets

Acknowledging the significance of assets as a central reference point, UpKeep introduces filters for Work Order lists on mobile, specifically for Child Assets. This usability improvement enables users to filter Work Order lists by all Asset hierarchy levels, providing granularity in managing work efficiently.

Enhanced PM List View

Admins and Maintenance Managers rejoice as UpKeep introduces an enhanced Preventive Maintenance (PM) List View. This update grants users more configuration and control over the list view of PM records. With advanced filters, saved view functionality, and display of the Next PM trigger date, managing preventive maintenance tasks becomes a more organized and streamlined process.

Work Order Start Dates

Addressing the need for better work order tracking, UpKeep now allows administrators, maintenance managers, and technicians to specify a start date on work orders. This feature empowers maintenance managers to track the commencement of work to meet specific due dates, while technicians can prioritize their tasks based on assigned work order start dates.

Automated Workflows Customization

Admins and Maintenance Managers can now leverage automated workflows more efficiently by customizing them based on request custom form items and description fields. This customization ensures that workflows align seamlessly with specific use cases, streamlining the approval and creation of work orders.

Coming Soon: UpKeep's Future Offerings

Custom Asset Schedules

UpKeep is gearing up to introduce Custom Asset Schedules, allowing administrators and reliability engineers to define asset schedules tailored to specific needs. This feature will enable organizations to set expected operating hours for assets, with up and downtime percentages calculated based on the asset's operating hours.

Custom Work Order Statuses

Another upcoming feature is Custom Work Order Statuses. This enhancement empowers Maintenance Managers and Technicians to define custom work order statuses that align precisely with business operations. This not only minimizes manual data entry but also provides a clear way to communicate work order progress and blockers.
