Your Equipment Doesn't Warn You.
Until It's Too Late.

Most maintenance teams are still running on spreadsheets, paper logs, and reactive gut instinct, chasing faults after the damage is done.

Sound familiar?

  • A machine goes down on a Friday afternoon. Nobody knows its last service date.
  • A technician finishes a repair but there's no record of what was replaced.
  • A compliance audit is coming up and no one can find the maintenance logs.
  • Spare parts run out mid-repair because inventory wasn't tracked.

There's a better way to run maintenance — and it starts with having everything in one place.

Maintenance Crisis

See How a Typical Maintenance Day Looks with VLC Maintenance Management

From fault detection to closed work order, here's the end-to-end flow your team will actually use.

1

Fault Detected

A connected sensor on your production line detects abnormal vibration. VLC Maintenance Management receives the IoT signal and automatically creates an alert, tagged to the specific asset, location, and severity level.

Work Order creation

Work Order Created

The system instantly generates a Work Order. It pulls in the asset's full history including past repairs, service records, and installed spare parts, so the technician arrives fully informed, not guessing.

Auto-Generated Documentation
3

Technician Dispatched

The technician gets a mobile notification with the work order details, checklist, and safety instructions. They can scan the asset's QR code on-site to pull up diagnostics, manuals, and previous service notes — all from their phone.

Mobile-First Design

Repair Logged

Once the work is done, the technician logs the repair, parts used, and time taken — directly in the app. No paperwork. No memory lapses. The asset record updates in real time.

Paperless Operations

Service Report Generated

VLC MM automatically compiles a service report, including fault details, corrective actions, parts used, and downtime duration. This feeds directly into your compliance audit trail and procurement records inside Business Central.

AI Prediction

AI Learns & Predicts

Here's where VLC goes beyond reactive maintenance. The system's built-in AI engine analyzes the repair history, fault patterns, and sensor data to predict when this asset — or similar ones — might fail next. It then automatically schedules the next preventive maintenance task.

Embedded AI Engine

What Your Team Gets, Day One

Real benefits from the first login

Less Downtime

Catch faults before they become failures. AI flags at-risk assets early so you act before production stops.

Paperless Work Orders

Create, assign, update, and close work orders digitally — from desktop or mobile, on the floor or in the field.

Smarter Parts Management

Never run out mid-repair. Inventory alerts and automated reorder triggers keep your parts stocked and tracked.

Real Compliance Trails

Every inspection, repair, and sign-off is logged automatically. Compliance reports are always ready.

AI-Assisted Scheduling

Stop guessing when to service equipment. The system learns from patterns and recommends optimal windows.

Full Asset Visibility

One screen shows every asset's health status, open work orders, service history, and next scheduled task.

Lower Maintenance Costs

Preventive maintenance costs far less than emergency repair. Extend asset life and cut overtime.

Native ERP Integration

Because VLC MM lives inside Business Central, your maintenance, procurement, and finance are always in sync.

Why VLC Over Others?

There are plenty of standalone maintenance tools. Here's what makes VLC different.

Native Business Central Integration

Not a Bolt-On

Most CMMS tools require API bridges and middleware. VLC MM is built directly inside Business Central. Your maintenance data, procurement, inventory, and financial reporting are always in sync — automatically.

AI That's Actually Embedded

Not Just a Buzzword

From health scoring to failure prediction to automated scheduling — the intelligence is baked into every step, not sitting behind a separate analytics dashboard you forget to check.

Built for the Shop Floor

Not Just the Boardroom

Mobile-first access, QR code scanning, and simple checklists that don't require training. Powerful enough for management visibility and compliance reporting.
