Everything you need to know to start the journey towards more effective maintenance management in the office and on the go with the MEX iOS APP.
This page provides you with an understanding of the MEX system, all its benefits and how it interrelates with the iOS App and other MEX products.
MEX transforms your computer and devices into a control centre for all the maintenance work that your organisation performs. With MEX, you have the ability to know
Overall, MEX will assist you in making better management decisions on the maintenance work you do, no matter what field you work in.
MEX coupled with the MEX iOS app is a winning combination that gives organisations increased transparency and control of their maintenance operation. Taking an all-in approach with the MEX product suite allows you to become truly paperless.
With the MEX iOS App you can access submit and edit Work Orders in the field you don’t even need network connectivity you can completely ditch any paperwork! Carry out all of your MEX tasks in the digital world and never worry about losing asset details or work orders, do your work in MEX and it will always be there waiting for you.
It depends on what your business does but the benefits that are normally achieved with MEX include:
MEX is not complicated to set up in anyway. The installation process is straight forward and your system will be up and running in no time. What will determine the setup time frame is the volume of information you want to store in MEX.
It could take anywhere from 4 hours to 6 months and it is important to not rush an implementation set up as you will want to get it right the first time. Remember that if you set up MEX correctly there’s no reason to assume you won’t have a successful implementation.
We recommend using the latest Windows (2012) and SQL Server (2008 or later), either Windows 7, 8 Á 8.1 or 10 operating systems, a multicore CPU and 4GB of RAM and more, and any browser that supports HTML 5.
MEX is now fully html 5 based, making it ideal for use on the cloud. Whether it is on your own server or through the MEX Data Hosting service. MEX can help you formulate an effective cloud solution that will suit your needs.
The iOS App is free to download once operational it is no different than logging into MEX, its using one concurrent user license.
You certainly can. We have also built the MEX Stores module that is sold separately from the base MEX system. MEX Stores provides you with an inventory management platform that can handle stock levels, allow you to carry out stock takes, create purchase orders, requisition parts and report on your inventory. This module is also available on the MEX iOS app.
The Regions module is used in MEX to segment available data through individual restrictions. This allows users from particular sites to only see the Assets, Work Orders, PM Schedules and other data that is a part of their respective site.
Do note that this is an additional module of MEX and will need to be purchased separately from the MEX system.
MEX has a comprehensive security system at your disposal. How secure your system is really depends on how much security you wish to enforce.
MEX has the ability to dictate levels of security to determine what each individual has access to within MEX. There are a number of predefined security groups available that you can use or build security groups around.
MEX works off a concurrent licensing model. Meaning if you hold a five user licence, then only 5 individuals can be logged into MEX on diferent devices, including the iOS app at the same time. This does not limit how many users you have set up to use the system. Understanding this will help you determine how many user licences you need to effectively use MEX. Simply ask yourself, at a peak time in your operation, how many users do I need to have access to MEX and perform their jobs comfortably in the process?

We are proud to announce that as of MEX V15, administrators can now set up MEX to work alongside Active Directory. Allowing you to carry over the same user structure used in your domain into your CMMS system. This simplifies user administration not only in MEX but for the organisation as a whole.
If there is a need to integrate with a certain system, our consultants will find a way to interface it with MEX. From accounting packages like MYOB and XERO to specialised reading capture interfaces. We will find a way to allow your other systems to work alongside MEX.
MEX can be used on computers that use Windows 7 and later operating systems right across to Macs. Any device that uses a browser that is html 5 compatible will be able to use the full MEX System. That means that MEX V15 extends right across to iPad’s and tablets as well. We do however recommend to not use MEX with other mobile devices of similar sizes for a better experience with MEX.
MEX is available in the following languages:
Yes it is. Through our extensive experience dealing with customers from nearly every industry, we have designed MEX to allow seamless customisation(s) to any part of the MEX system.

Whether it’s a new field on an existing MEX form or a a whole new module. MEX has an inbuilt customization tool that allows you to tailor your system to suit your maintenance practices. Best of all any custom module you create is instantly available on the MEX iOS app on the iPad.
We cover the basics of the Asset Register, Work Orders, History, and Preventative Maintenance modules of the system, as well as provide a good overview of the rest of the features.
