CMMS and asset management
One record per asset, with every job, part and cost attached to it. Plants, hotels, complexes and fleets.
The problem
Critical assets, expensive downtime, and the system of record is a group chat.
In one sentence
Solmex is a CMMS and an EAM platform in one. One record per asset, with every job, part, reading and cost attached to it. The office plans in a browser; the field works from a phone.
Where Solmex runs
Machines that move between sites, burn fuel and are serviced on hour meters, not the calendar.
How Solmex runs a fleetMotors, compressors, conveyors and presses, each with its own service programme and cost of stopping.
Chillers, boilers, lifts, pool plant and three hundred rooms of small faults a guest must never notice.
Generators, pumps, lifts and fire systems, kept running by a small team that answers to a board.
Maintenance doesn't happen in the office
Scan the plate, read the job, record the work, attach the photo. The office sees it before the technician has packed up.
The actual product
Real screens from a live 420-asset workspace. Same system whether the row is an excavator, a chiller or a conveyor motor.

Timeline-driven maintenance
Nobody updates a status field. The lifecycle is derived from what actually happens on site.
The mobile app
Three screens for somebody in gloves: scan it, do it, sign it. Everything management needs is a by-product.
One scan, the whole asset
Point a phone at the plate and the asset answers for itself: what it is, what it needs, what is wrong with it.

Solmex keeps one record for each asset. Every work order, service, inspection, part, meter reading and cost links to that record, so you see the true cost and the true availability of each one. A spreadsheet cannot do that: it fails when two people edit it at once, it holds no photographs or signatures, and nobody can update it from the roof of a building or the cab of a machine.
Yes. Solmex has a mobile app for the field. Technicians scan the QR code on an asset or a parts bin. They log the progress of a work order. They add photos and signatures. They read inspections and permits on site. Field input is a main feature, not an extra.
You assign a service template to an asset. The template lists the intervals, in run hours (250, 500, 1000) or in kilometres, and each interval carries its own task list. Solmex reads the live meter and shows which service is due, due soon or overdue, against the manufacturer's grid rather than a countdown restarted by the last service. When you complete one, Solmex writes a signed report and updates the asset's history.
Yes. Warehouse issues and fuel records go into one cost ledger. Labor costs and manual costs go there too. You then see the total cost and the period cost for each asset. You do not enter the data two times. Spare parts have a full stock record. This record shows receipts, issues, returns and adjustments. It also shows low stock and prints bin labels.
Yes. Solmex uses a permission for each action, such as view, edit, approve and export. You group these permissions into roles. You make the roles. You can give control of one action to one role only. For example, you can let one role close a work order or approve leave. Solmex writes every change to a key record in an audit log.
Most teams are working in Solmex on their main assets within a few days. We import your asset list from a spreadsheet. We set up your sites, locations and roles. You turn on each module when your team is ready: service, work orders, inspections, warehouse, workforce. The best way to plan it is a short walkthrough using your own assets. Book a demo.
A CMMS is a computerised maintenance management system: the software that plans maintenance, runs work orders and records what was done, with what parts, at what cost. EAM, enterprise asset management, is the wider job around it: the permanent register of what you own, where it is, what it has cost you over its life and when it is worth replacing. Most tools do one well and bolt on the other. Solmex is built as a single record that answers both, which is why the cost of an asset is a consequence of the work recorded against it rather than a separate spreadsheet. Read how it handles preventive maintenance and work orders.
Four kinds of operation: production plants and factories (motors, compressors, conveyors, presses, utilities); hotels and resorts (chillers, boilers, lifts, pool plant, kitchens); residential and commercial complexes (generators, pumps, lifts, fire systems); and equipment fleets and construction (excavators, loaders, trucks, cranes, generators). Anything you keep in service can be an asset, including an attachment mounted on a host machine. Solmex has been proven hardest on the fourth: it has run a live 520-machine road project for a year. See asset management or how it runs a fleet.
Yes. Every asset belongs to a site and to a zone or location inside it, and it can be moved between them without losing any of its history. Registers, dashboards and reports all filter by site, so a site manager sees their own building or project while the head of maintenance sees everything. Each company gets its own isolated tenant, enforced by the database itself, so two businesses never share a register.
Your data lives in a PostgreSQL database in your own tenant, isolated at the database level rather than by an application filter. You can export registers and reports to Excel from the pages you work in, and generated documents such as service reports and permits are PDFs you keep. Every change to a key record is written to an audit log with who changed it and when, so the history is yours and it is readable.
