Maintenance management (CMMS and EAM)
CMMS software, short for computerised maintenance management system, holds your asset register, work orders, maintenance plans and spares. Enterprise asset management (EAM) software does the same job across a wider scope of the asset life cycle. Mining sites range from small fixed-plant operations to large mobile fleets, so fit matters more than feature count. The tools below are listed from each company's own public material.

How to choose
Asset hierarchy and size
Check the system handles the depth of your asset register and the volume of work orders you generate.
Mobile and offline work
Ask how technicians raise and close work orders in the field, including with no signal.
ERP and procurement links
Maintenance spend is tied to purchasing and stores. Confirm how the system connects to your finance or ERP platform.
Local implementation support
Ask who implements and supports the product in Australia, and in which time zones.
Hosting and data location
Confirm where your data is hosted and what the exit and export terms are.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a CMMS?
- A CMMS, or computerised maintenance management system, is software that holds an asset register, work orders, maintenance plans and spare parts, so maintenance work can be planned, assigned and recorded.
- What is the difference between a CMMS and EAM software?
- The terms overlap. CMMS usually describes software focused on maintenance work. EAM, or enterprise asset management, usually describes a wider scope that covers more of the asset life cycle, such as procurement and disposal. Vendors use the terms differently, so read each product's own description.
- Does a mining CMMS need to work offline?
- Often it does. Ask how technicians raise and close work orders in the field with no signal, and how the data syncs afterwards.
- How does a CMMS connect to ERP and purchasing?
- Maintenance spend is tied to purchasing and stores. Ask each vendor which ERP and finance platforms it connects to and how.
