TPM Software Pricing: What Drives the Cost of Total Productive Maintenance Software

Short answer

MaintWiz pricing is tailored to the modules, users and sites you switch on: send your pillars, users and sites and receive an itemised three-year quote. TPM software cost moves with the same factors for every product, so the three-year cost sheet compares every vendor on the same lines.

Score the quotes with the free RFP scorecard and the twelve criteria in the buyer's guide.

How MaintWiz helps: MaintWiz is an AI CMMS built for TPM: it covers all eight pillars plus 5S, OEE, Kaizen and one point lessons in one system, with mobile capture and clickable dashboards for every pillar. Pricing is tailored to your plant and quoted on request, for the pillars and modules you choose. See MaintWiz TPM modules · See all four free files

Key takeaways

  • Your MaintWiz quote follows the pillars, users and sites you switch on, so you pay for the TPM you run.
  • Ask for a three-year total with each item listed, and for the price of the first extra module and the first extra user.
  • Weigh the quote against your own baseline of lost time and maintenance effort.
  • Send MaintWiz one scope and receive an itemised three-year quote tailored to the modules and users you need.

Pricing follows scope. The factors that move the total are the same for any product; list them in your request so every vendor prices the same thing.

Hosting also matters. MaintWiz is delivered as public software as a service; on-premises deployment is available on request. If you need on-premises, say so in the request because it changes the scope.

MaintWiz quote

How does MaintWiz quote?

What the quote follows

The quote follows the scope you give: the pillars you want to run, the number and type of users, and the sites in scope. The entire TPM can be rolled out in 6 to 8 weeks: data loads through easy Excel uploads, the screens are intuitive, and the MaintWiz implementation team gives guided project management.

Six to eight week MaintWiz roll-out plan from Excel upload to all eight pillar dashboards live
Figure 2. The whole TPM goes live in 6 to 8 weeks: equipment and checklists load from Excel in week one, Jishu Hozen and tags follow, and the dashboard for each pillar runs by week eight with guided project management.

What a MaintWiz quote includes

  • The modules you choose across the eight pillars.
  • The users who raise, approve and view records.
  • The sites and areas in scope.
  • Set-up through easy Excel uploads of your equipment list and checklists.
  • Guided project management from the MaintWiz implementation team.
  • Training for operators and administrators.

What to bring to the demo

To get a useful quote, book a demo and bring the list of routines you run today, the number of sites and areas, and any system such as SAP that records must connect to. MaintWiz integrates with SAP through the PM and MM modules using web services, can connect IoT, MES, SCADA, PLC and DCS sources, and supports enterprise single sign-on. Each is in use in live enterprise implementations.

Comparable quote

How do you get a quote you can compare?

  • Write one scope: pillars, areas, user counts, integrations, hosting, training and support.
  • Send the same scope to every vendor on the shortlist, in writing.
  • Ask for a three-year total with each cost factor listed.
  • Ask for the price of the first extra module, the first extra user and the first extra site.
  • Ask what happens to your data and to the price at renewal, and how records are exported if you leave. Data can be exported to XLS and PDF.
  • Ask for the same pilot terms from each vendor: area, weeks and people from your side.

Your MaintWiz quote answers all six in writing against your scope.

Price the whole programme, not one tool: a CMMS plus an operator app plus an OEE system means three subscriptions and three equipment lists, while MaintWiz carries all eight pillars, 5S and OEE on one list (which system holds which record; 21 tools compared). The MaintWiz modules follow the pillars as the Japan Institute of Plant Maintenance (JIPM) describes TPM, so each pillar is priced as one module.

Measure a baseline of tags, stops and counts first; the MaintWiz quote covers the full roll-out of the entire TPM. The migration checklist sizes the Excel loading.

Internal effort is the line most often left out. Estimate the hours of operators, maintenance and engineers in the pilot and rollout, and value them at your own rates.

Your own data

How do you see MaintWiz on your own data?

Get a quote for your scope in a one-to-one demo on your own records: bring your equipment list, a tag sheet and the report your management reads today.

Your existing lists upload to MaintWiz through Excel, so the roll-out starts from your own records.

Own baseline

Why compare against your own baseline?

A business case is strongest when it uses your own figures: hours lost to stops and waiting, maintenance backlog, overdue tags, audit effort. The TPM business-case workbook structures this. MaintWiz gives each routine an owner, a date and follow-up, so the baseline you measure first is the baseline you can show improving.

Ahuja and Khamba (2008), reviewing TPM implementation, stress sustained routines and leadership, so plan the budget for the roll-out and the routines it sets up, not only for licences.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does TPM software cost?

MaintWiz pricing is tailored to your plant and quoted on request for the modules, users and sites you need, and you receive an itemised three-year total. Across products the cost moves with modules, users, sites, services and integrations.

What is MaintWiz TPM software pricing?

Pricing follows your scope. Send one scope with your pillars, users and sites, and you receive an itemised three-year quote tailored to the modules and users you need. Bring it to a demo and ask for the price of the first extra module.

Why is TPM software priced on request?

Scope varies widely: which pillars, how many users and sites, which integrations and what services. Pricing is tailored to the scope you give, so a quote reflects exactly what your plant will run.

What should be in a TPM software quote?

Subscription or licence, set-up and configuration, integrations, training, support level, any hardware and data migration, itemised over three years, with the price of the first extra module, user and site.

How do I see MaintWiz TPM software on my own data?

Book a demo and bring the checklist, tag sheet or spreadsheet you use today. The one-to-one demo shows the modules handling your own records, and the quote follows the scope you set.

How do I compare TPM software cost fairly?

Give every vendor the same written scope, ask for a three-year itemised total, include your own internal effort and compare against your baseline of lost time rather than against quoted gains.

Is MaintWiz pricing different by country?

No. Pricing follows your plants, modules and users, wherever they are. Send one scope covering all your sites and you receive an itemised three-year total to compare line by line.

Is MaintWiz available in Spanish, Thai or Turkish?

Yes, for your records. MaintWiz supports Unicode, so tags, observations, one point lessons and notes can be written in Spanish, Thai, Turkish or any other script. Menus and labels are in English.
