Maintainly material QR labels can be printed, attached to a material, and then scanned using the Maintainly mobile CMMS app when when they are consumed on a task.

QR labels on spare parts and consumables play a crucial role in enhancing inventory management within a CMMS system. These labels, which can be printed and applied directly to materials, streamline the tracking process by enabling quick and accurate scanning using the Maintainly mobile app. When parts are consumed during a task, scanning the QR code updates the CMMS automatically, reducing manual data entry errors and ensuring real-time inventory accuracy.

The benefits of QR labels include improved accountability and visibility of material usage, as every scanned item is instantly recorded in the system, allowing for detailed tracking of consumption patterns. This helps maintenance teams anticipate reorder needs, avoid stockouts, and maintain optimal inventory levels. Moreover, the quick access to information about each part—such as part number, supplier, and stock location—enhances decision-making and efficiency, as technicians spend less time searching for necessary components and more time completing tasks. Ultimately, QR labels help create a seamless connection between the physical materials and their digital records, boosting operational efficiency and cost control in asset management.

Maintainly material QR labels should not be confused with asset QR labels. Asset QR labels perform a completely different function and you can read about that here.
