The technician hears
the machine is down — before
it becomes lost hours.

A CMMS only works if people act on time. Fast Maintenance Software fires WhatsApp, email and SMS alerts from real maintenance events — a PM falling due, a breakdown reported, a spare hitting reorder, an AMC or calibration about to expire — so technicians are dispatched, planners see what's due, and stores restock before a machine waits on a part.

Three channels, one rulebook

WhatsApp is where the floor lives.
Email & SMS carry detail and reach.

All three channels fire from the same maintenance events, so you choose the medium per alert — a WhatsApp thread to the technician on the line, a one-line SMS when a critical machine goes down, a full email with the maintenance history for the record. One event, your choice of channels.

Where the shop floor is
WhatsApp alerts
The conversational channel technicians and supervisors already check all day: breakdown dispatch, PM-due reminders, work-order updates and calibration recalls land in the thread they act from — asset, machine and what's needed, in a message they don't have to log in to read.
Breakdown dispatch PM-due reminders Work-order updates Read on the line
Detail, record & reach
Email & SMS alerts
Email carries the full picture — asset, machine, problem, spares, due date — and doubles as a maintenance-history paper trail for the ISO auditor. SMS gets read anywhere on the shop floor or the field, with or without data — the channel of choice for critical-machine breakdowns and same-day PM.
Full asset context Audit paper trail Reads anywhere Critical breakdowns
How it works

Maintenance events fire alerts.
Alerts drive the response.

No one has to remember to notify anyone. The asset's own lifecycle — the PM schedule, a breakdown report, a spare's reorder level, an AMC or calibration due date — is the trigger.

Maintenance Event Happens
A PM falls due, a machine is reported down, a spare crosses reorder, or an AMC / calibration date arrives
Alert Rule Matches
The event maps to a recipient and a channel — technician, supervisor, planner, stores or quality, by WhatsApp, email, SMS or a combination
Message Delivered
The alert goes out with the asset, the machine and the expected action — enough to act on without logging in first
Action Lands on the Asset
The technician attends, the PM is done, the spare is reordered — and the maintenance history and dashboards reflect it immediately
The alert families

Six alerts that keep every machine,
spare and gauge from slipping

Every alert is tied to a real asset in the asset register — so the notification, the action and the maintenance history always agree.

PM due Planner
PM-due reminders
The preventive schedule knows what's due — by calendar or running hours. The reminder puts it in front of the planner and technician before the schedule slips, not after.

Fires before the due date, not after
Calendar or usage-based schedules
Machine down Technician
Breakdown notifications
The moment a machine is reported down and the downtime clock starts, the technician and supervisor know — the asset, the fault and the priority in the message, so response starts before it becomes lost hours.

Spare reorder-level alerts
When a spare crosses its reorder level after an issue against a work order, stores and the maintenance head are alerted — so the critical bearing or seal is on order before the next machine needs it.

01 — Breakdown Notifications

The response starts the moment
the alert lands

A machine down without a notified technician is just downtime accruing. When a breakdown is reported in the breakdown maintenance screen and the downtime clock starts, the notification reaches the technician and supervisor with everything needed to move: which asset, which machine, what fault, how urgent. The downtime clock and the technician's awareness start together.

Instant dispatch on breakdown — no morning-report lag

02 — Reminders & the Alert Ladder

Remind before it's due.
Escalate only when it slips

Good alerting has a ladder. The PM-due reminder gives the planner and technician the chance to do the work before the schedule slips. If the machine goes down, the breakdown notification moves the moment it's reported. And a spare crossing its reorder level alerts stores before the next repair needs it. Each rung is tied to a real asset event — so people act on exceptions, not on a printed pending list.

03 — Reorder, AMC & Calibration Alerts

The machine never waits
on a missed date

Most teams find out a critical spare is out of stock when they reach for it, and that an AMC lapsed when they file the claim. Fast Maintenance alerts on the reorder level of every spare, on AMC and warranty-expiry dates, and on calibration-due recalls for gauges — so stores restock in time, contracts renew, and no gauge measures out of cal. The alerts feed the same spare-part management your reorder dashboard already runs.

Everything WhatsApp, email & SMS alerts cover

PM-Due Reminders

The preventive schedule drives reminders to planners and technicians before the due date — the PM gets done, not discovered overdue at month-end.

Breakdown Notifications

Technicians and supervisors are told the moment a machine is reported down — asset, fault and priority included, on WhatsApp, SMS or both.

Spare Reorder Alerts

Spares crossing their reorder level alert stores and the maintenance head, feeding a purchase requisition so no machine waits on a stock-out.

AMC & Warranty Alerts

Assets and spares under AMC or warranty flag ahead of expiry, so contracts renew and claims are made before cover lapses.

Calibration-Due Recalls

Gauges and instruments recall automatically as their calibration date approaches, so nothing measures with an out-of-cal gauge.

Multi-Channel by Design

The same events drive WhatsApp, email and SMS together, and feed Dhruv AI analytics — one asset record behind every channel.

"We used to find out a machine was down when the line called, and that a PM was missed at the monthly review. Now the technician gets the breakdown on WhatsApp the second it's reported, and the PM reminder lands before the schedule slips — the shop floor moves without anyone chasing a report."
