CMMS in Africa

The CMMS built for French-speaking Africa

Running maintenance on an industrial site across French-speaking Africa means dealing with critical equipment, spare parts with long lead times and teams spread out in the field. Maint Vision is a web and mobile CMMS that brings work orders, preventive maintenance and parts inventory into one place. Free trial, no credit card required.

The To do view of work orders in Maint Vision: on the left, the jobs assigned to the user, sorted by priority, with their status; on the right, the details of one of them, abnormal noise on the water pump, high priority, in progress.
01

A CMMS built for African industrial realities

Mining, oil and gas, energy, agribusiness, cement plants, ports and manufacturing all share the same constraints: machines that cannot afford to stop, work that must be documented, and sites that are often far from where decisions are made. Maint Vision centralizes requests, work orders and the full history of every asset, so nothing is lost between the field and the office. The platform is in French and English, which makes it easy to roll out to mixed teams. Whether you manage a single workshop or several sites spread across the country, you keep a clear view of your equipment’s condition and your technicians’ workload.

02

Parts inventory: the make-or-break factor with long lead times

In Africa, a bearing or a control board can take weeks to arrive. An unplanned stockout is paid for in hours, sometimes days, of downtime. Maint Vision tracks your spare parts with available and reserved quantities, minimum and maximum thresholds, storage zones and barcodes. You know exactly what is left before starting a job, and you are alerted when an item drops below its threshold. By linking parts to equipment, you quickly identify the critical references that must always be kept in reserve. That is the foundation of maintenance that no longer depends on the surprises of the supply chain.

03

Moving from reactive to preventive to keep critical assets running

Waiting for a breakdown is expensive when the part is on the other side of the world. Maint Vision’s preventive maintenance can be scheduled two ways: on a calendar basis (every X weeks or months) or by meter, based on actual running hours or cycles. Each due date automatically generates the work order with its procedure. Your technicians know what to do, when and with which components. Over time, you reduce unplanned stoppages, spread the workload more evenly and extend the life of equipment that is often hard and costly to replace on the continent.

04

The field in your pocket: mobile, QR and photos

Maintenance happens in the field, not in front of a desktop. With the mobile app, your technicians scan the QR code on a piece of equipment to instantly open its record, history and preventive plans. They complete checklists, add before-and-after photos and close the job from their smartphone. Mobile is central in a context where a desktop computer is not always within reach. Your data flows up to the platform as work progresses, giving the manager a real-time view of what is happening on each site, without waiting for a paper report at the end of the day.

05

Multi-site, AI-assisted procedures and management KPIs

An organization running several sites needs a shared foundation. Maint Vision is multi-site and multi-organization from the start, with free requesters so anyone can report a problem at no extra cost. You standardize your work with procedures, which can be drafted with AI assistance (Business plan) to save time. On the management side, reports and KPIs (MTBF, MTTR, availability rate) turn activity into decisions: which assets consume the most time, where to strengthen preventive maintenance, how to justify a budget. It becomes the common language between maintenance, technical management and executives.

06

Frequently asked questions

Q.01Does Maint Vision work in French?
Yes. The platform is in French and English, and French is the working language across much of Africa. Your mixed teams can use the interface, procedures and reports in whichever language suits them best.
Q.02Do I need an internet connection to use the mobile app in the field?
Yes, to enter data. Your technicians scan QR codes, fill in checklists and add photos from their smartphone, and the manager sees each site’s activity right away. With no network, the app shows the work orders and assets already opened, read-only. Nothing is queued for later: status, time and photos are entered once you are back online.
Q.03Where is our data hosted?
Data is hosted in the European Union, in Frankfurt, under the GDPR framework. As several African countries have their own personal-data laws, we recommend checking your local obligations; we do not claim a certification specific to each country.
Q.04How much does Maint Vision cost and can we try it?
Pricing is per user, shown in euros, and requesters who report problems are free and unlimited. You can start with a 30-day free trial, every module except AI, for up to 2 users, no credit card required, to test the CMMS on your own equipment before committing.
