Facilities & CMMS maintenance scheduling

The chiller in Building C just died during PM week.

A chiller down in Building C, a security-escorted access window, and preventive-maintenance week across twelve buildings. The portfolio didn't slip because your engineers are careless — it slipped because every ticket drags a chain of dependencies: a CFC ticket, a parts pickup, an escort window, a tenant SLA, a fire-inspection date that cannot move. Tools that ignore those chains hand them to a building engineer at 9:23 a.m. Crisphive carries the whole chain instead, so your people don't have to.

Every field service day is a dependency graph. Most software pretends it isn't — and hands the graph to a dispatcher to solve in their head, under pressure, forty times a day. We think the schedule should carry that weight, not your people. That's the whole company.

— Why Crisphive exists

How it fits your day

When the day changes, the schedule keeps up.

Crisphive is the layer that carries your day's dependencies — every work order, tenant promise, and crew constraint — so when a chiller drops mid-PM-week, the plan repairs itself instead of landing on a building engineer at 9:23 a.m.

The day changes

The failure arrives however it comes in — a BAS alarm, a tenant ticket, a 9 a.m. phone call from Building C. The moment it lands, the day is in play.

The schedule recomputes

The schedule re-plans the portfolio against every hard rule — access windows, tenant SLAs, compliance dates, PM frequencies, parts and escort logistics, travel between sites — and returns a new plan plus a backup.

Your team is notified

You confirm once. Your engineers are re-routed, your tenant comms go out, your work orders update — nothing else needed from you.

You never rebuild the day by hand. The schedule recomputes around the disruption, keeps every promise it can, and shows you exactly what moved before anything goes out. Confirming the new plan takes one click.

The rules of your day

Hard rules, not suggestions.

A schedule that ignores these rules isn't scheduling — it's guessing, and a tenant pays for the guess. Every plan Crisphive hands you respects all of them. No exceptions, no "hope the tech makes it."

access

Site-access windows

Secure floors need escorts; retail floors need after-hours access. Access windows are hard rules per site — a tech who arrives when the door is locked is a wasted trip you still pay for.

commitment

Tenant SLA tiers

A critical-environment tenant and a comfort call carry different clocks. Every tenant's SLA tier is built into the schedule, so the chiller outranks the ceiling tile automatically — and everyone can see why.

compliance

Compliance dates that cannot move

Fire inspections, elevator certs, backflow tests — some dates are set by regulation. The engine moves everything else around them; they never absorb the slip.

recurring

Recurring PM schedules

PM week is a lattice of recurring work. Re-planning reflows it without breaking frequency compliance — the deferred filter route lands inside its tolerance, on the record.

logistics

Parts & escort insertion

The chiller repair needs a contactor and a security escort. Both go on the plan with real time attached — visible in the schedule, so nothing gets promised before the part and the escort are actually there.

travel

Technician-to-site travel

Twelve buildings means real windshield time. Travel is counted per leg, so portfolio plans reflect the drive between sites, not wishful adjacency.

Getting started

Up and running in three steps.

1

Add your engineers and their certs

Sign up and add your engineers with their trades, certifications, and vehicles — CFC, electrical, plumbing, general maintenance. These are the things every plan has to respect.

2

Bring in your jobs and customers

Bring in the week's work orders and buildings — by import or right alongside the CMMS you already run. Confirmed tenant SLAs and compliance dates come with them.

3

Let the day run itself

From then on the schedule keeps itself. Emergencies slot in, affected jobs move, and your team and customers hear about it automatically — you just confirm.

⏱ Most teams are live within a week — no technical setup

Outcomes

What changes for you. What your customers feel.

You — running the business

One chiller stops eating your whole Wednesday.

  • Your dispatcher gets the morning back. Triaging PM week around an emergency becomes one confirmation click instead of an hour of phone calls.
  • SLAs stay kept without heroics. Priority tiers are enforced by the schedule, not negotiated in a hallway while a tenant waits.
  • More wrench time, less windshield time. Travel is planned per leg, so engineers spend the day fixing buildings, not driving between wishful adjacencies.
  • You always have the answer. When a tenant asks why their work slipped, the plan shows exactly what moved and why their SLA still held.

Your tenants

One chiller stops cascading through twelve buildings.

  • Their window is kept. The escort shows up when the plan says, and the after-hours floor is served after hours.
  • Their SLA survives the chaos. A critical-environment tenant stays ahead of a comfort call, every time the day recomputes.
  • Compliance dates never absorb the slip — the fire inspection happens exactly when it was promised.
  • Building C is cooling again by early afternoon — and no other building noticed anything happened.

Running more than one branch?

Set the rules once. They hold across every crew and every building. The access-window, PM, and tenant-SLA logic you set up for one portfolio carries to the next site, the next branch, the next acquisition — so growth stops multiplying dispatcher chaos. Adding buildings adds work orders, not another morning of hand-juggling nobody has time for.

Why it holds up

Built for the days that go sideways.

Never billed

Re-planning is free

Re-planning is free and unlimited. Portfolio days are volatile by nature — a breakdown, a no-show, a fresh tenant ticket — so re-plan on every disruption without ever watching a bill.

Consistent

Dependable by design

Schedules come from a deterministic engine, not guesswork — the same situation always produces the same plan. AI helps explain the plan in plain language; it never decides who goes where.

Backup included

Always a plan B

Every urgent booking comes back with a recommended plan and a backup. If the customer declines the first window, the next-best option is already on the table.

What operators say

Portfolios that keep PM week intact

48-building portfolio
An emergency chiller call used to blow up our whole PM week. Now it slots in and the preventive work still gets done. Our SLA numbers have never looked better.

Half my sites need security escorts, and our old system had no idea what that meant. Here the escort window is a hard rule — if the escort isn't booked, the job simply doesn't get planned there. Missed-access callbacks have basically disappeared.

We folded in two acquired portfolios last year. That used to mean months of dispatcher pain while they learned every building's quirks. We set the rules once — fire-inspection dates, tenant SLAs, access windows — and the board holds. Audit season stopped being scary.

FAQ

Questions from the field

Will an emergency work order break our PM compliance?
No. When a chiller dies mid-PM-week, the schedule re-plans the day around your recurring preventive work — the emergency gets covered and PM week stays intact and inside its compliance windows.
How are tenant SLA tiers and access windows handled?
They're hard rules, not preferences. Site access, escort windows, and tenant SLA tiers hold on every plan, and SLA-critical work stays protected whenever the day is recomputed.
Does it work with our CMMS or CAFM?
Yes. Crisphive runs alongside or inside the CMMS, CAFM, or work-order tools your team already uses — the scheduling happens in the software you know, and no engineers are needed to make it work.
Can it schedule across a multi-building portfolio?
Yes. Travel between sites, engineer skills, and per-building access rules are all part of the same plan, whether you run one tower or hundreds of buildings.
Our facilities team doesn't write code — who sets this up?
You don't need a technical team. If you already run a CMMS or CAFM, scheduling shows up inside it; otherwise you can start yourself in minutes, or we'll get you set up on a short call — either way, no code.
How does pricing work across a building portfolio?
You pay per work order dispatched — never per building, per seat, or per engineer. Recurring PM re-plans and reschedules are free, and hard caps are on by default so a heavy quarter can't surprise-bill you.

Your schedule should survive a bad morning.

Start free and drop in your worst Wednesday — a chiller down, PM week running, twelve buildings live — and watch the portfolio re-plan itself around every access window and SLA.
