A better (faster, easier, cheaper) way to protect your assets


WAM – updated and enhanced this Spring – is saving organisations like yours time and money, and helping ensure optimum customer service


W


hen Quest reported back to Formby Leisure Pool Trust earlier this year they put a spotlight on


the achievements and effi ciency of their maintenance programme and its ability to help them deliver excellent operational service. Formby Leisure Trust, like scores of other


organisations around the UK, have signed up to WAM (Workfl ow Asset Management), a simple, aff ordable, accessible web based programme that combines their bespoke inventory of assets with a maintenance scheduling tool to help ensure effi ciency. “WAM has proven to be integral to the success of our highly rated maintenance programme, and was credited as a signifi cant factor in our excellent rating in our fi rst Quest inspection,” says Chris Von Bargen, duty manager at the centre. “In the past all our maintenance was paper based, but having it organised and online has transformed the way we work.”


How does it work? WAM’s a web based system that provides you with a bespoke asset inventory interacting with a fault reporting and repair system and planned preventative task schedule. It’s accessible to all staff on site for a one off set up cost per organisation, and is incredibly easy to use. Everyone who accesses the system can simply hit a button, key in a message (fault reported, part ordered, repair done etc) hit another button and the system updates while management teams can see at a glance faults reported, the progress of repairs, depreciation value of assets, contractor servicing and the preventative maintenance jobs being undertaken.


Where has it come from? WAM was launched onto the market by award winning social enterprise Halo Leisure who created the system for their

centres in England and Wales and then, when it worked so well, created a business arm to share the system with other organisations. T is year they’ve added a number of new features to enhance the programme further (see panel above). But leisure centres, spas and hotels who use the programme – many across multiple sites – talk about how it saves time and money by co-ordinating and monitoring maintenance work and have reported back on its inherent fl exibility and usability (Waterside Hotel and Leisure Complex in Manchester), its value for money and almost immediate impact on effi ciency (Avalon Leisure), its ongoing impact on maintenance management and customer service (Circadian Trust), and its ease of use, even for staff not used to computers (Slough Community Leisure).
