Sockeye: AMMS Scheduling & Reporting Bolt-On
In the fast-paced world of facility maintenance, efficiency is everything. With multiple moving parts, ensuring that work orders are scheduled, tracked, and executed without a hitch is critical. But for many organizations, this is easier said than done—especially when relying on traditional, manual processes or cumbersome tools like AMMS/Microsoft Excel. Enter Sockeye, a revolutionary bolt-on solution that integrates seamlessly with AMMS, to streamline work order scheduling and SMRP KPI reporting.
In this blog, we’ll explore how Sockeye eliminates inefficiencies in work order scheduling, enhances schedule visualization and labor management, and empowers facilities to gain clearer insights into their operations—all while supporting better work prioritization and communication.
Eliminating Manual and Inefficient Scheduling Processes in AMMS
If your team is still manually scheduling work orders in AMMS, you’re likely familiar with the time-consuming and error-prone nature of the process. Manually entering data, adjusting schedules, and ensuring that everything is aligned with labor availability can quickly become a logistical nightmare. This is where Sockeye comes into play.
Sockeye integrates with AMMS to automate and optimize work order scheduling, eliminating the need for manual intervention. With Sockeye, work orders are automatically prioritized and scheduled based on predefined criteria, such as urgency, resource availability, and maintenance priorities. This not only reduces the risk of human error but also frees up valuable time for your team to focus on more strategic tasks.
Saying Goodbye to Excel for Work Order Scheduling
For many facilities, Excel has been the go-to tool for managing work order schedules. While it may seem like a simple solution, using Excel for scheduling comes with a host of limitations—chief among them being the lack of real-time updates and the potential for data discrepancies.
Sockeye offers a far superior alternative. By integrating directly with AMMS, Sockeye eliminates the need for Excel spreadsheets, providing a more accurate, dynamic, and user-friendly way to manage your schedule. With Sockeye, all scheduling data is at your fingertips, up-to-date, and easily accessible within, ensuring that everyone is working from the same information.
Enhancing Schedule Visualization, Search, Filter, and Editing Capabilities
One of Sockeye’s stengths is its ability to enhance schedule visualization and management. Instead of navigating through clunky interfaces or dealing with static spreadsheets, Sockeye provides a clear, intuitive view of your work order schedule.
With Sockeye, you can easily visualize upcoming work, search for specific work orders, apply filters to narrow down your view and make edits on the fly. This level of flexibility allows you to manage your schedule with greater precision, ensuring that all tasks are appropriately prioritized and allocated.
Optimizing Labor Availability Management
Effective labor management is essential for keeping your facility running smoothly. Sockeye excels in this area by providing powerful tools to manage labor availability. By integrating labor data directly into the scheduling process, Sockeye ensures that the right personnel are assigned to the right tasks at the right time.
This means fewer delays due to labor shortages, more efficient use of your team’s skills, and ultimately, a more streamlined maintenance operation. Sockeye’s labor management capabilities allow you to optimize resource allocation, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.

Knowing what’s happening in your facility on a week-to-week basis is crucial for proactive maintenance management. Sockeye offers unparalleled visibility into your operations, allowing you to see not only what work is currently underway but also what’s coming down the pipeline.
With Sockeye’s weekly view, you can anticipate upcoming maintenance needs, identify potential bottlenecks, and adjust your schedule accordingly.
