CMMS software that makes maintenance manageable

AssetLab's computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) turns reactive maintenance into predictable operations - work orders that run themselves, full cost visibility, and mobile access for field teams.

Reduce downtime

Avoid setbacks with a proactive, preventive maintenance strategy and move fast when emergencies do happen.

Increase productivity

Prioritize and complete work orders faster with efficient, collaborative software your team will love using.

See every work order

Track open and historical work orders for full compliance and complete visibility into tasks at the individual staff level.

Complete work orders faster

Requests come in, you approve or reject them, work gets assigned, and nothing falls through the cracks. Your team always knows what's next - without chasing tickets or status updates.

  • Requests arrive from the portal, a dedicated intake email address, or a form on your own website - approve or reject them before they become work orders
  • Create, assign, and track work in list, Kanban, or calendar views
  • Hand a contractor a secure link to one job - they update progress and fill the inspection form without an account
  • Auto-assign by site and work category
  • Notifications keep work moving without follow-up emails
  • Every completion logged with hours, parts, and costs - audit-ready

Prevent failures before they happen

PM schedules generate work orders automatically, with checklists and procedures pre-filled. Set it once - your team just executes.

  • Work orders create themselves when maintenance comes due
  • Rolling schedules reset from actual completion - no quarterly PM pileups
  • Fixed calendar schedules for compliance-driven inspections, with an inspection form attached so answers come back as data
  • Overdue PMs are flagged before they become breakdowns

Rolling schedules prevent PM pileups

Rolling PM calculates the next due date from when the work was actually completed - not a fixed calendar date. That keeps every quarterly or monthly task from landing on the same day and spreads workload evenly across the year.

Fixed schedules for compliance

Fixed PM creates work orders on set calendar dates - ideal for seasonal maintenance, annual inspections, and compliance-driven tasks that have to happen on schedule regardless of when the last one was done.

Everything your team needs, in the field

Every asset gets a QR code automatically. Scan it with any phone and the asset's full record opens - no trips back to the office, no hunting through filing cabinets. Field teams report saving 10+ hours per week.

  • Complete work order history and maintenance procedures
  • Manuals, diagrams, photos, and parts at your fingertips
  • Create or complete work orders on the spot

Know where every dollar goes

Labor, parts, and vendor costs are captured on every work order and roll up into each asset's total cost of ownership - so repair-or-replace decisions are based on data, not gut feel.

Built for the way your industry works

From manufacturing floors to healthcare facilities, schools, and commercial buildings, AssetLab adapts to how your team already runs maintenance.

Manufacturing & production

A production line goes down at 2 AM. The technician scans the QR code on the failed motor, sees it has already failed three times this year, opens a work order, logs the parts used, and schedules a replacement - back online in 45 minutes instead of four hours.

Healthcare facilities

Annual medical-equipment calibration comes due. The PM schedule auto-creates dozens of work orders and pre-assigns them to the biomedical team, each with its calibration checklist, previous results, and vendor contact - full compliance with zero missed inspections.

Commercial property

A tenant reports an HVAC issue through the work-request portal. The system routes it to the right technician by building, who scans the unit, sees the same fault was resolved three months ago, and applies the same fix - a 30-minute resolution.

Education & grounds

A grounds crew runs a rolling PM schedule across 23 lawn areas. Each area is serviced every 14 days from its last completion - no more "everything due on Monday" pileups, and workload stays evenly distributed all season.

"I really like the integration of PM/repair work with the value of assets, easily allowing me to see which things need to be replaced in the future. The turn around time on support has been so fast, I have no complaints."

CMMS Software FAQ

Common questions about CMMS software, pricing, implementation, and how AssetLab compares.

What is CMMS software?
CMMS stands for computerized maintenance management system - software that centralizes work orders, preventive maintenance schedules, asset records, parts inventory, and maintenance costs in one place. Instead of spreadsheets, paper tickets, and tribal knowledge, a CMMS gives maintenance teams a single system of record for everything they maintain.
How much does CMMS software cost in Canada?
US-based CMMS solutions typically range from $20-100 USD per user per month, with key features gated behind higher tiers. AssetLab offers transparent, published CAD pricing from $45 per user/month - no custom quotes, no per-module licensing, and no currency exchange uncertainty.
How long does CMMS implementation take?
With AssetLab, most teams are live in days, not months. Import your asset registry from spreadsheets, and QR codes are generated automatically for every asset. PM schedules can be set up the same week, and guided onboarding helps your team adopt the system quickly without external consultants.
What is the difference between CMMS and EAM software?
A CMMS focuses on day-to-day maintenance operations: work orders, PM scheduling, and parts. EAM (enterprise asset management) adds full lifecycle management - capital planning, condition assessment, risk scoring, and replacement forecasting. AssetLab combines both: CMMS for daily maintenance plus capital planning, FCI tracking, and asset replacement planning in one platform. Read our full CMMS vs EAM comparison.
Does AssetLab CMMS work on mobile devices?
Yes. The full AssetLab platform works on phones and tablets. Technicians scan a QR code on any asset to instantly open its work order history, procedures, parts, and documents - and can create or complete work orders right from the field. See the mobile CMMS guide for details.
How do maintenance requests get into AssetLab?
Four ways. Staff and tenants use the self-service request portal. Anyone can email a dedicated intake address (like acme-staff-requests@requests.assetlab.ca) - no account, portal, or app needed, and you can create as many addresses as you like, each with its own defaults and rules about who may use it. A snippet on your own website puts a request form in front of residents and visitors, with no account and no auto-approval. And contractors work from a secure shared link to a single work order, view-only or with completion allowed. Every path lands in the same queue, with a two-way message thread that follows the request onto the work order. See work order management for details.
Is my maintenance data stored in Canada?
Yes. AssetLab stores your asset and maintenance records, uploaded files and backups in Canada (AWS ca-central-1, Montreal), with PIPEDA-aligned privacy practices. A few supporting services, such as sign-in and email delivery, run outside Canada and are listed in the Trust Center. That matters for municipalities, healthcare, education, and other public-sector organizations.
