Welcome to the Pronto Maintenance App, the mobile maintenance application designed to transform how your field teams manage plant assets, prestart inspections, and compliance. Built for Pronto Xi users, this offline-capable solution streamlines maintenance workflows and enhances the experience for technicians in the field. Upgrade Your Maintenance Operations. Say goodbye to paper forms, disconnected tools, and systems that fail when connectivity drops. The Pronto Maintenance App is a purpose-built mobile experience for real-world conditions — from workshops and warehouses to remote and high-risk environments. Developed with industry requirements and customer feedback in mind, it delivers a reliable solution built directly into the Pronto ecosystem. Seamless Workflow Management. Optimise your maintenance workflows from backend to frontend. From an intuitive home screen, scan or search plant items, action prestarts, record monitor point readings, and raise defects — all in one mobile experience. Plant item enquiry puts asset details, images, PM tasks, and status at your fingertips. Whether managing heavy equipment or critical plant assets, the app scales to your needs across manufacturing, utilities, logistics, facilities management, mining, and more. Work Where Connectivity Cannot. Built on a true offline-first architecture, technicians can complete key tasks in remote or no-signal environments and sync securely when back online. Prestarts, defects, monitor readings, attachments, and signatures are saved locally and queued for automatic background sync. No workarounds — just a mobile-first experience that works wherever the job takes you. Enhanced Prestart Management. Prestart templates are fully customisable to reflect your site, safety, and operational requirements. Driven by Work Instructions synced to the device, prestarts support multi-select and fixed-response questions, follow-up questions, signatures, free-text notes, and mandatory photo capture. Technicians can pause and resume with drafts saved automatically. Mandatory questions ensure compliance before work proceeds. Prestarts can embed monitor readings and raise defects instantly, reducing downtime. Capture Critical Details with Ease. Record monitor point readings from a plant item or within a prestart. Raise and manage defects with the information your team needs to respond quickly. Capture signatures, images, and attachments to build accurate digital records. QR and barcode scanning helps identify the correct plant item every time. Customise for Success. Every business is different. Administrators manage user access, roles, and security attributes in Pronto Xi to control what each technician sees and does. Configure prestart templates, monitor points, work instructions, and plant images in Pronto Xi, and the app brings that setup to life in the field. Secure and Simple to Deploy.
