Coordinate work across fields and facilities

There’s a lot of work to do, and it’s spread out over numerous sites. Hippo CMMS helps you see everything with intuitive dashboards and calendars that show you the big picture while giving you control over the smallest details. All from the same software, you can generate and assign work orders, schedule and reschedule PMs, and track progress on assigned work.

And with the interactive site maps and floor plans, you can plot the locations of critical assets and equipment, making it easier to get techs right where you need them.

Track assets, labor, and inventory

With so many assets and inventory, you need a standardized system for collecting and sharing critical data. The last thing you need is for techs to be working on a combine in the middle of a field only to discover they need the maintenance and repair manual.

Hippo can help you set up barcodes on all your assets and equipment, which techs can then scan using the mobile app, granting them instant access to everything from serial numbers to digital copies of manuals. They can also see all currently open associated PMs and work orders, helping them quickly confirm they’re working on the right asset.

Get the most out of your asset investments

Modern agribusiness involves everything from tractors to drones, simple wire fences to complex irrigation systems, and you need your investments in assets and equipment to last many seasons to ensure you get all the value out of them you can. Hippo makes setting up, scheduling, and tracking preventive maintenance inspections and tasks as simple as a few clicks of the mouse.

And as soon as techs are done, no matter how far away they are, they can use the app to close out the PM and access their next tasks.

Types of Farm CMMS Software

Large20farm

Commercial Farms

Large operations have large collections of assets and equipment, from chemical applicators to harvesters. And it’s not just the number of assets, it’s also how far apart they are from one another. Your pick-up might be in the barn, but the new drone is three fields away. Hippo’s mobile app delivers a lot of power right where you need it, out in the field. Techs can quickly scan barcodes with their mobile device to ensure they’re working on the right asset. Instantly, they have access to comprehensive asset data and all open associated work orders and PMs.

Cows

Livestock Farms (Animals, Dairy, Poultry)

Assets and equipment are critical to staying in compliance for livestock safety and comfort. When the heaters go out in the coop or the rotary milking parlor jams, you need a streamlined workflow for getting things back online. Hippo makes it easy for anyone to reach out and let you know there’s a problem. From there, you can approve requests, generate work orders, assign them, and track progress. Your team works fast so your livestock enjoys the quality of life they deserve.

Small20farmer

Small Business Farms

Even the smallest “hobby” farm requires a wide variety of assets and equipment, from the pick-up truck to the manual tiller. Regardless of the size of your operation, Hippo makes it easier to keep on top of required maintenance and repairs. And unlike larger operations, where everything is a bit wider, smaller farms often face smaller margins, making the reporting and tracking features even more critical.

Agricultural20farmer

Crop Agriculture Farms

“Time waits for no one” is a good summary of life as a farmer. You need to get the seed in the ground and then the harvest out of the fields in small, critical windows. Hippo makes it easy and efficient to first check all open work orders and PMs and then make changes in real-time. When you can prioritize work, you can ensure critical assets are up and running when you need them.

Software Solutions and Benefits

Maintenance Tracking

Farm Asset and Equipment Management

Not only do farms have a lot of equipment, but so much of it is critical to time-sensitive tasks. When the crop needs to be harvested, you don’t have the time to wait on parts for a broken-down tractor.

Hippo helps you standardize and streamline workflows, so work gets done properly and on time.

Farm Fleet Management

Your farm has a fleet of critical vehicles, including everything from your grandfather’s original utility tractor covered in chipped green paint to that small forklift you run in the barn. It doesn’t matter how “classic” or high-tech your vehicles are, you still need to keep up with maintenance. Hippo CMMS agribusiness management software helps you schedule PMs packed with helpful checklists and instructions and keep critical parts and materials on hand.

Mobile Farm Management

Farming is a special industry. Unlike most others, farms have their assets and equipment spread out over large, often separate areas. The barn might be close-by, but your fields could be far away. The only way for you to keep track of it all and properly schedule and track work is with a reliable mobile maintenance solution.

Hippo’s farm and livestock management software delivers the right features, no matter where techs are. It starts with push notifications to instantly alert techs there’s a new work order. From there, they can access asset data by scanning barcodes. If a problem pops up, they can grab a pic and upload it directly to the work order, where everyone on the team can see it.

Farm Preventive Maintenance

Because prices go up every season, you need your assets and equipment to last as long as possible. Preventive maintenance helps you find and fix small issues because they have a chance to grow into big problems. It’s the same as with weeds: you need to nip them in the bud.

Hippo’s preventive maintenance software for agribusiness helps you schedule and track PMs so you know you’re getting maximum value over the asset life cycle, season after season.

Maintenance Tracking

Farm Inventory Management Software

Farms are never in the middle of densely packed urban areas where it’s easy to get things delivered right to your door. The further away you are, the longer you need to plan inventory and deliveries in the future.

Hippo’s farm inventory management software starts with customizable par levels you set to best match your usage rates and lead times. Every new work order and PM includes associated parts and materials, and the software helps you keep accurate records by automatically updating levels when techs close out work orders. Once you hit your min levels, the software sends you an alert and helps you send in your next order.

work order vendor management software system

Farm Vendor Management

Long gone are the days of a single family running their own homestead. Modern agriculture is often large operations running a mix of full-time and seasonal help. On top of that, there are the many different third parties and vendors you need for specific tasks on specialized equipment.

You need someone else to do the work, but you also need to ensure they’re doing the work right. Hippo’s farm and ranch management software makes it easy to keep all your vendor contact info safe and searchable. You can send work orders from inside the software directly to vendors, making organizing and tracking projects much easier.

You can’t be everywhere at once, the farm’s just too big for that, but Hippo’s agriculture farm management software puts you exactly where you need to be, in charge of all your work orders.

Farms are big places, making it hard to see the big picture. There’s a lot to try to keep an eye on, from scheduled work and on-demand tasks to inventory and supplies. Hippo makes it easy to capture data because it keeps everyone in one spot, a centralized database.

And once all your data is together, with just a few clicks, you can build reports that deliver easy-to-understand graphs and metrics for the maintenance big picture.
