Introduction to Asset Audit
The Asset Audit is a structured evaluation process designed
to assess service locations for compliance with Cummins standards. This process
encompasses a comprehensive review of both the availability of essential tools
and the certification status of technicians.
Cummins Account Executives are responsible for scheduling
audits across the service locations under their supervision. The SPA
application enables them to efficiently plan, execute, and complete these
audits. Additionally, it provides the capability to define tasks and formulate
action plans based on audit outcomes.
By ensuring that each service location is equipped with the
appropriate tools and certified personnel, this process enhances operational
efficiency, supports successful work order completion, and ultimately
contributes to the reduction of TNF.
