JRS Innovation UG

Software for maintenance, inspection and fleet teams comes from JRS Innovation, a technology company whose tools run operations from one platform. Its products are cloud based and move paper checklists onto phones, tablets and web browsers, adding scheduling and reporting. Its stated aim is to reach a global position as a trusted provider of intelligent maintenance, inspection and fleet technology, and the company is known as JRS Innovation LLC.

Maintenance software for heavy machinery and industrial assets

One product, HVIM, covers inspection and maintenance of heavy machinery. OX Maint is a maintenance management system for teams, which plans and tracks preventive and corrective work, and IFactory covers the maintenance and management of industrial assets through their working life. The company reports that customers have extended asset life by 13 percent and reduced downtime by 28 percent using its tools.

Inspection apps that replace paper

TIMS, Marine, Property and Bus apply the same inspection and maintenance approach to trucks, vessels, property and buses. Inspectors fill in checklists and gauge readings from a mobile phone, using a simple form builder, so the paper process is replaced by digital records that the business can search and report on.

Fleet operations on telematics and GPS data

The fleet features include unlimited users with flexible permissions, scheduling, electronic data logging and access through web and smartphone apps. The platform connects to OEM telematics and GPS feeds through secure APIs, so manufacturer-grade asset data can flow into a customer's account. It handles large volumes of data and error management in offline mode, which lets crews keep working for days without a connection.

Telematics alerts warn of operating conditions that could lead to unplanned downtime, and the platform sends email and app notifications when they occur.

Predictive analytics and records for compliance

Predictive analytics and artificial intelligence are applied to maintenance planning, with the aim of spotting likely failures before they happen. The platform also tracks regulatory requirements, audit records, certifications and documentation, so the paperwork that proves compliance is kept with the asset records it refers to.

From business case to live system

A project begins with a business case and gap analysis. The system is then built, delivered and tested, followed by live testing and deployment. End users, administrators and support staff are trained last. The company says a set-up can take minutes and that teams can reach the system from any browser, tablet or phone without training from the project team.
