Critical Alarm Automation
Work Order and BMS Alarm Integration System
Critical Alarm Automation is a powerful work order and building management system (BMS) alarm integration tool that provides a communication bridge and enables data exchange between BMS technology and SchoolDude's MaintenanceDirect work order management system.
Critical Alarm Automation reduces risk by enabling staff to respond to major issues first, before they become emergencies or potentially catastrophic events, and helps extend the life cycle of any equipment you are monitoring.

"Of course, I want to know if the humidity's high, and of course, I want to know if the temperature’s too high and I want it to kick my butt and tell me if there's a problem, which is what CriticalAlarms does. It creates a work order for an electronic trail, shows it was initiated and I can track its history. It keeps us accountable and we can show the board or the insurance company that we responded properly, tried to get the job done and we avoided a catastrophic failure."
