Four Rivers Software Adds New And Improved Contracts Management Capability To TMS

PITTSBURGH, June 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Four Rivers Software Systems, Inc., the provider of TMS, the leading maintenance management software (EAM/CMMS) system for the healthcare industry, announces the availability of the TMS Contracts Module.

The TMS Contracts Module is now available as a core component of TMS Enterprise. This module has new functionality and a more intuitive user interface than its predecessor in iTMS. Designed to handle the requirements of both hospitals and Independent Service Organizations, it tracks and manages any type of service contract whether there is an asset involved or not. The ability to monitor different types of service relationships makes this functionality very significant for hospitals that manage their own assets and those of affiliates.

The TMS Contracts Module is integrated with both the work order and asset modules. This benefits the organization in two ways. 1) When a work order is opened, the status and terms of the current warranty or service contract are available for consideration; 2) With all of an asset’s maintenance history integrated with the contract information, analysis can be easily done to determine if the contract is cost effective and should be renewed.

Contracts that are not associated with an asset, such as landscaping, can also be managed with the TMS Contracts Module.

The system has the flexibility to define and enter the terms of the contract so that they can be considered when making decisions. Features such as the ability to copy a contract or terms minimize the data entry process.

The TMS Contracts Module is available immediately for TMS Enterprise and will be released at a later date for TMS WorkGroup and TMS Plus.
