Docs & Knowledge Center
Keep every technician aligned by storing procedures, manuals, and troubleshooting guides directly alongside the work they support.
What it solves
- Eliminates outdated paper SOPs and scattered shared drives.
- Provides technicians with point-of-use guidance right inside work orders.
- Preserves tribal knowledge when experienced staff retire or change roles.
Core capabilities
- Rich-text document authoring with version control.
- Drag-and-drop attachments for OEM manuals, diagrams, and videos.
- Tagging by asset, process, or certification requirement.
- Inline embedding within work orders, checklists, and training modules.
- Role-based permissions to control who can author, approve, or consume content.
Implementation playbook
- Organize taxonomy. Define categories (e.g., mechanical, electrical, safety).
- Migrate content. Import critical SOPs and validate accuracy with subject matter experts.
- Link to execution. Attach docs to preventive maintenance plans, tickets, and training records.
- Enable feedback. Allow technicians to comment on clarity and flag improvements.
- Review cyclically. Set owners and review cycles so procedures stay current.
Data captured
- Document versions, authors, and approval workflows.
- Access analytics showing which docs are referenced and by whom.
- Feedback history and suggested edits.
Best practices
- Standardize on templates for SOPs, troubleshooting trees, and safety briefings.
- Pair with Checklist & Work Instructions to drive consistent execution.
- Use QR codes on equipment to open the relevant procedure instantly.
KPIs to watch
- Procedure review compliance rate.
- Technician satisfaction with documentation (survey or feedback score).
- Time-to-troubleshoot before vs. after documentation improvements.
