I did a check of my database and found over 50K zero dollar pieces of equipment. I was tasked with leading the efforts to help resolve this issue. Using the equipment export, I exported our entire equipment database for adds in the last 10 years in MS Excel. I concatenated the manufacture description column and the model number column. Using this, I created a pivot table on the Man+Model and took the average purchase cost for each (I filtered all zero dollars out as well). I then created a spreadsheet of all zero dollar devices and used a Vlookup formula to input the average cost into the purchase cost field. I imported the spreadsheet back into AIMS and it filled in over 75% of our zero dollar items. Fixing the rest was more labor intensive, but our team came together and fixed it in 2 days. To round it out to completion, Phoenix Data Systems is helping with a SQL statement to check the Estimated Acquisition Cost box. By doing this, it helped give a much more accurate COSR for our service! The C-Suite likes our new numbers!

What are your facilities using for CMMS software? Is it all that you want it to be?

Does anyone know where a reasonably current ECRI list of codes is located on the web? I am in the process of standardizing our research and medical inventory with correct make/model referenced by their ECRI. We had previously allowed a broader access into our CMMS system so that the researchers could trial their new toys. 

Mahalo!

I would like to get a poll of what tracking program other biomeds are using at their facility. For some reason this facility is using Maintenance Connection which in my opinion is more set up for building maintenance. Is anyone else using this program?

Please provide me the name of your CMMS Program for maintaining your Clinical Engineering Database. Looking for one that does it all from inventory to invoicing a client and reports to boot. Thanks
