| Today’s warehouses don’t run on clipboards and guesswork — they run on data, precision, and speed. eWorkOrders warehouse management software (WMS) gives you the control to manage inventory, schedule preventive maintenance, and track performance from any device.Whether you’re a warehouse manager, facility supervisor, or operations leader, you’ll have everything you need to keep workflows moving, equipment in top condition, and orders on schedule — without juggling multiple disconnected systems. |
The Hidden Costs of Poor Maintenance and Disorganized Inventory
In a busy warehouse, small issues rarely stay small. A single missed maintenance task can take a forklift out of service, slowing order picking and delaying shipments. Poor inventory tracking can lead to misplaced stock, overordering, or costly shortages that frustrate customers and hurt your bottom line.
When equipment downtime and inaccurate stock counts pile up, productivity slips — and so do profits. Tracking the right warehouse KPIs helps managers spot inefficiencies early, prevent costly delays, and maintain smooth operations across the entire facility.
The reality is clear: without the right systems in place, you’re always reacting to problems instead of preventing them. That’s where a modern warehouse management solution changes the game.
How eWorkOrders Transforms Warehouse Operations
eWorkOrders isn’t just another piece of software — it’s the operational backbone that keeps your warehouse running at peak efficiency. By combining maintenance scheduling, inventory tracking, and performance monitoring into one platform, it gives you gain complete visibility over every moving part in your facility.
From reducing downtime to improving stock accuracy, our WMS helps you shift from reactive firefighting to proactive control. Here’s how it delivers results in the areas that matter most.
1. Preventive Maintenance Scheduling
Effective preventive maintenance programs are essential to the success of your operation. Stay ahead of equipment breakdowns by scheduling maintenance based on date, run hours, or mileage. With automated reminders and visual dashboards, you can plan work orders before issues escalate, keeping your facility running at full speed.
2. Warehouse Inventory Management Software Tools
Track stock levels in real time to avoid overordering, stockouts, and misplaced items. Our integrated warehouse inventory management software ensures every product is accounted for and ready to move when needed.
3. Complete Equipment History
Access detailed service records for every forklift, conveyor, and pallet jack in your fleet. Historical downtime and cost data give you the insights to make confident repair-or-replace decisions.
4. Asset & Fleet Tracking
Get a full overview of every vehicle and asset, from condition to location. eWorkOrders helps you manage spare parts availability and reduce costly delays caused by equipment downtime.
5. Mobile Access Anywhere
Whether you’re in the office, on the floor, or off-site, manage your operations from any smartphone, tablet, or computer. Stay connected to work orders, inventory counts, and equipment status wherever you are.
Built for Every Role in Warehouse Operations
eWorkOrders is designed to make life easier for everyone involved in running a warehouse, whether you’re managing the big picture or handling day-to-day tasks.
- For Warehouse Managers: Keep stock counts accurate, reduce downtime, and ensure orders move out on schedule. The system gives you real-time visibility into inventory and equipment status so you can plan ahead.
- For Facility Supervisors: Coordinate maintenance tasks, monitor work orders, and track safety checks in one place. Easily see what’s been completed and what still needs attention.
- For Operations Leaders: Access performance reports and trend data to make strategic decisions about staffing, resource allocation, and process improvements.
Seamless Integration with Your Existing Systems
eWorkOrders works alongside the tools you already rely on — whether that’s an ERP, a supply chain management platform, or a standalone WMS. By integrating with your existing systems, our warehouse management software eliminates duplicate data entry, reduces errors, and keeps information consistent across departments.
This means your maintenance schedules, inventory data, and operational reports stay in sync with purchasing, shipping, and finance functions. No more jumping between disconnected systems or struggling to align data from multiple sources.
With flexible integration capabilities, eWorkOrders becomes a natural extension of your current technology stack, supporting smoother workflows and smarter decision-making without disrupting your operations.
Building a Strong Maintenance and Safety Culture
A warehouse runs best when safety and maintenance are part of the daily routine, not an afterthought. Well-maintained equipment lasts longer, operates more efficiently, and reduces the risk of accidents that can halt production.
eWorkOrders makes it easier to embed these practices into your workflow. Preventive maintenance schedules ensure equipment is serviced on time, while inspection checklists help your team identify and resolve hazards before they become serious problems. Following proven guidelines, like our warehouse safety checklist, keeps your facility compliant and your staff protected.
By fostering a culture where every team member understands the importance of safety and upkeep, you not only reduce downtime but also create a more reliable, productive work environment.
A Long-Term Advantage You Can Measure
Investing in warehouse management software isn’t just about solving today’s problems — it’s about staying ready for tomorrow. With eWorkOrders, you get a platform that adapts to industry changes, supports new technologies, and scales as your operation grows.
Over time, the impact is clear:
- More predictable workflows during peak seasons
- Faster responses to equipment or inventory issues
- Data-driven decisions that improve year over year
The result is a warehouse that runs smoothly, stays resilient under pressure, and continues to deliver consistent results for the long haul.

eWorkOrders CMMS Streamlines Maintenance for 42 McDonald’s Locations
For the last 24 years, I have been managing the maintenance and repair of over 42 McDonald’s restaurants. The eWorkOrders CMMS has streamlined many processes and improved productivity in the management of service requests, work orders, and communications between my team of 7 maintenance technicians and the restaurant GMs. Before the implementation of eWorkOrders, we were keeping individual lists at the various stores of repairs and requests. Having to manage all of the maintenance for all of these facilities, equipment, coolers, etc., left me and my team with some very long lists to manage. Although we thought that the process was working fine, we knew that there had to be a more efficient way to manage our facilities. After meeting with Norm, my account representative, he understood my challenges and did a demo of eWorkOrders CMMS software that showed me the capabilities and how eWorkOrders could improve my existing processes. We decided to implement eWorkOrders throughout our restaurants. That was the best move I have ever made! The store GMs all love knowing that all of their requests they entered into the eWorkOrders system are being tracked and will be completed in a very timely manner, including the ordering of parts, etc. With the robust standard set of reports, we can now track activities at the individual and store levels and analyze the data for improvements. Being able to put in a service request and manage work orders from a mobile device is just awesome! I wish I had eWorkOrders years ago. Thank you, Norm for your help and professionalism in getting us up and running with eWorkOrders. Norm is always available when I have questions or issues to improve what I’m doing, since I’m not the most proficient person when it comes to computer stuff. The good news is you don’t have to be. Hope I’m not sounding like a salesman because I’m not, I’m just a very satisfied customer. Read the full case study

Saved $150,000! eWorkOrders Understands Customer Requirements
eWorkOrders saved my client (Virginia Department of Transportation) over $150,000 a year in headcount alone! Before they implemented eWorkOrders, VDOT was managing multiple systems, with multiple platforms. Being a government facility, they are very conscious of budgets and expenses. With the eWorkOrders CMMS solution, they have all of their inventory and asset information, documents, schedules, and information stored in one centralized location that can be accessed from anywhere, at any time! Through the implementation and the ease of use of eWorkOrders CMMS centralized solution, they no longer needed multiple people managing multiple legacy systems and were able to reduce their headcount and utilize these employees in another area. Overall, the system saved time, money, and increased productivity and efficiency.
It has been great working with the eWorkOrders Team! They understood my customers’ needs and requirements, budget constraints, and worked with them to quickly get them up and running on the software.
I highly recommend this team for any company that really wants to achieve success with a new CMMS solution. It is really nice to work with a team that listens to what you want and need and delivers a solution with an exceptional outcome! eWorkOrders is in the business of successfully assisting organizations through the implementation process and making sure that customers are comfortable with their system. eWorkOrders has the best professional, technical, and management team who all work together to ensure customer satisfaction!
