This report is a management summary of the capabilities provided by the Hospital Equipment Maintenance System (HEMS) and a preview of capabilities to be provided by the Facilities Engineering Equipment Maintenance System (FEEMS), for which HEMS is an operational pilot system. When extended as a Class A Army Standard System (scheduled for FY78), FEEMS will be an integrated module of the Integrated Facilities System (IFS). HEMS was developed for use by the installation-level Directorate of Facilities Engineering (DFAE) to support recurring maintenance activities on critical utility equipment and systems in Army hospitals and medical facilities. However, the system is equally applicable to utility systems and equipment throughout the entire installation. HEMS is designed to operate with the Integrated Facilities System (IFS) and uses several input transactions, code structures, and output documents common to IFS. To use HEMS, however, the DFAE must develop a thorough plan for recurring utilities maintenance before implementing the system. This report provides an overview of HEMS capabilities, a brief description of its benefits, and recommendations for developing the recurring maintenance plan required for HEMS implementation. The DFAE can use this report to evaluate the potential application of HEMS to a given situation and the requirements for such an application.
