  • Assets reported observations and follow-up

Quick-start

In this article, we would like to point you in the right direction on how to setup and configure your ALIS instance for Airside maintenance management.
You should have received or waiting for your instance details and credentials in order to login and find an empty airport. It is now up to you to populate and configure the different assets we want to track in the system. 
These are the steps we are going to take in order to do so.

You can find an overview of the configuration support pages here and learn about the terminology ! ALIS Configuration & Setup

Step-by-step guide

  1. Gather your asset Data  for creating the digital twin

    1. The following information is required in order to create the assets in the system:

      1. The asset "name"

      2. The asset "type"

      3. The main- and subarea

      4. It's location in the world ( in lat/long) 

    2. That information can be retrieved from different sources

      1. Through an export of an AutoCAD sheet (Ask us if you need help with that!) 

      2. Through an existing list of your installed base

      3. Through a survey ( last resort option) 

  2. Structure your data and headers to match our Asset import module  requirements  
    (info) You can find some basic and advance template sheets below

  3. Create your maintenance tasks and Asset types in ALIS  based on your gathered data and desired maintenance regime.

    1. Follow our maintenance task and asset type configuration here: ALIS - Maintenance tasks configuration

    2. Have a look at the instruction video - ALIS a new instance  to get some help there if needed ( you will start off with an empty asset list in this case) 

  4. Import your asset data from step 2

    1. You can have a look at our Import/export instruction video if you need some guidance here.

  5. Create user accounts for your colleagues in order for them to get access to the ALIS instance with the appropriate roles

  6. Succes! Your instance is now ready for use and it's time to start creating those work orders - maintenance registrations or on-site observations!
