Representative company scenario

Metal fabricator with 200+ assets

Technicians cannot trust the asset register

See how a machine-heavy fabricator can turn a spreadsheet register into scan-ready equipment history on the floor.

The operating situation

Where the maintenance process starts to break down

The asset spreadsheet contains duplicate names, partial serial numbers, and links to documents stored elsewhere. Technicians often record repairs against a generic line or machine family because finding the exact record takes too long.

  • Different teams use different names for the same machine
  • Repair history is stored by file or date instead of asset
  • Technicians search for records while standing at the equipment
  • Repeat failures are difficult to compare

Workflow with Corivo

From plant-floor signal to usable maintenance history

The goal is not another reporting layer. It is one connected path from the first request to completed, reusable equipment context.

  1. 01

    Import the existing register

    The team starts with its spreadsheet, maps useful fields into Corivo, and cleans duplicate or incomplete records without retyping the whole asset base.

  2. 02

    Create a practical asset hierarchy

    Plants, lines, machines, and machine sections are organized in a structure technicians can recognize on the floor.

  3. 03

    Attach a unique QR tag

    Each asset receives a printable QR code. Scanning it opens the correct machine record, open work, fault history, and reporting flow.

  4. 04

    Build history through daily use

    New faults, work orders, parts, and completion notes accumulate against the right equipment instead of disappearing into generic records.

Operational value

What this workflow makes easier to control

These are workflow outcomes the scenario is designed to support, not promised performance percentages.

  • Faster access to the correct asset record
  • Cleaner machine-level maintenance history
  • A practical migration path from spreadsheets
  • Better evidence for repeat-failure and repair decisions
