MEX Overview
What is MEX?
MEX is a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) which enables users to manage preventative maintenance on their equipment and assets, with maintenance scheduling, automated work order creation, job tracking, equipment readings, reporting, and more.
MEX’s built-in asset register allows users to record information on all assets and locations, including account codes, purchase details, supplier, warranty information, previous asset locations, and more. Full work histories can be documented, with last service dates and readings, any spare parts used when repairing the asset, and any outstanding work to be completed. Users can also create any number of custom fields to record additional information. Minimal information can be recorded in MEX during setup, with users able to return to asset records and fill in more details at a later date.
Work orders can be created manually by users, for maintenance requests, or their creation can be automated through preventative maintenance scheduling. Users define the frequency at which maintenance is required for assets, based either on usage or time, and MEX automatically generates work orders according to this schedule. Work orders can be used to record as much or as little information as desired, with users able to record only essential information to reduce the time spent at the computer, or plan and document every detail including tasks, manpower, spare parts, tools, instructions, procedures, dates, and more.

MEX Maintenance Review
MEX is already showing the business that we are top heavy with trades waiting around for break downs, with this information we now can plan more effectively by having trades onsite when required to carryout planned maintenance activities and not just be a breakdown team giving them more machine up-time.
MEX = KISS Value for money.
This software is ideal for small to midsize business.
The ease of use is that actual day to day users will love it.
Value for money.
MEX at Golden Bay Cement
MEX are quick to offer solutions, but do not always listen to the Customer. Time will resolve that as the relationship between the new Maintenance Manager and MEX evolves.
Integration has proven difficult and there are still issues to be dealt with. GBC is actively working on a plan to address issues and tighten up the integration performance.
There is great scope for improvement at GBC, and there is a plan to address that. There is a lack of both ownership and understanding below the Maintenance Manager, a legacy of the previous Maintenance Manager. Again, GBC is working to address that.
Customer service like no other.
It has been extremely refreshing to deal with a company who has proactive employees across all areas of the company that I have dealt with. Sales, Training, service, and support.

Casella Family Brands initiated the use of Mex in 2007 "Just to help us with Maintenance", Who would have thought of the wide usage & power of the system now, The Business has grown considerably & Mex has adapted & grown with us from the early days of 10 users to now having 225 users, the business was on 1 site now we have multiple sites looking after maintenance function of 150+ maintenance staff & an asset register with over 10,000 assets. All functions of the Mex System are utilized from the requesting process & approval to the acquisition of parts & final Scheduling, A comprehensive history has been developed which we now have as a resource to use on reporting regulatory requirements & in moving the maintenance function forward strategically. The system may not be the biggest out there but its ability to be adaptable to our designed maintenance program whilst keeping a robust user environment is invaluable in running the day to day maintenance function, Mex is now in the centre of all the maintenance functions on all our sites giving us control of all our labour, materials, running costs & information.

MEX Maintenance Review
Pros
MEX is by far one of the best CMMS I've used so far in my career its functionality makes it an easy system to implement which intern gives eases of use to the end user (maintenance trades),
Also regions is a great tool to setup multiple site locations across the business ensuring we have a standardised asset tree and control files,
Cons
Mex today requires further development by giving you the ability to import rosters into your schedule which will give you better planning functionality

MEX are quick to offer solutions, but do not always listen to the Customer. Time will resolve that as the relationship between the new Maintenance Manager and MEX evolves.
Integration has proven difficult and there are still issues to be dealt with. GBC is actively working on a plan to address issues and tighten up the integration performance.
There is great scope for improvement at GBC, and there is a plan to address that. There is a lack of both ownership and understanding below the Maintenance Manager, a legacy of the previous Maintenance Manager. Again, GBC is working to address that.
Pros
The software is simple in nature. This makes learning the product easy, and training is accomplished with minimum fuss. The application is solid, the releases (Builds) are reliable. Support is top notch, and very responsive.
Cons
GBC did not make a great job of establishing their deliverables for the software. As a result, the product has been slow to deliver a lot of the benefits which are clearly there for the taking. A change of Maintenance Manager so soon after go-Live did not help GBC in achieving its goals either, but that is being addressed by the new Maintenance Manager.

Customer service like no other.
It has been extremely refreshing to deal with a company who has proactive employees across all areas of the company that I have dealt with. Sales, Training, service, and support.
Pros
I deal with suppliers from various industries every day. MEX is one of the most proactive companies for service and support I have ever dealt with. The software has also been designed to be simple to use which has been immensely helpful for while rolling it out and training our team.
Cons
So far we don't have any cons. We will probably ask for extra features along the way as we get used to the software. However if MEX are as responsive to this as they have been with support and training then I'm sure it will work out well for us.

Pros
Its ability to adapt to our changing maintenance function while withholding a robust user environment.
Cons
The systems scheduler is clunky & needs improvement, eventually as every user continues down the path of true jobs control the scheduling of the workload must be the pathway to this result.
Response from MEX
Thanks very much for the review Harvey, we¿re happy to hear that you¿ve had such a great experience with MEX over the last 9 years and thank you for the feedback regarding the scheduler. If you ever need any assistance you can always phone in and talk to our support staff. Thanks for taking the time to review MEX.
