In a context where firms are geographically distant, the current tools for logistics management appear insufficient. The e-m@log module aims to enable the consideration of this aspect distributed.

In addition with a CMMS tool, the module e-m@log provides an decision support for the manager of maintenance service. It is able to offer the manager a set of assignments and schedules for a set of work orders. The module takes into account the known data of a CMMS, condition of equipment (location, operational status), human resources (location, profile of their jurisdiction) to propose solutions.

The core module uses the algorithm SèsAAM Systems (Systèmes d’Affectation des Activités de Maintenance – Allocation of Maintenance Activities) developed at the Department of Automatic Femto-st. This algorithm is based on a multicriteria optimization method and an evaluation approach using “logique Flou”. This is a metaheuristic that can provide solutions to a multicriteria optimization problem.
