WORK ORDER TYPES

Five Ways Work Orders Are Created in Cryotos

Every work order type has the same lifecycle — created, assigned, executed, documented, and closed — but each is triggered differently. Cryotos supports all five, including one no competitor offers.

Reactive corrective work order
Reactive / Corrective

Unplanned breakdowns reported by operators, technicians, or via work request portal. Includes mandatory 5 Whys root cause analysis.

Preventive maintenance work order
Preventive Maintenance

Scheduled recurring tasks based on time, meter reading, or condition triggers. Auto-generated on schedule.

Inspection-triggered work order
Inspection

Structured checklists that verify equipment condition. Auto-creates corrective WOs when inspection items fail.

Emergency work order
Emergency

Highest priority WOs with immediate escalation routing and real-time SMS, email, and WhatsApp alerts.

SCADA/IoT auto-generated work order
Auto-Generated (SCADA/IoT)

Machine fault or sensor threshold breach auto-creates the work order. No manual intervention — the equipment itself triggers maintenance.

Cryotos Solves All Five - In One Platform

How Cryotos Simplifies the Process of Handling Work Orders?

Create a Work Order in 30 Seconds — With Your Voice, From WhatsApp, or by Scanning a QR Code

The faster a work order is created, the sooner maintenance begins and the lower the MTTR. Cryotos gives every operator and technician three frictionless ways to create a work order without sitting at a computer.

Voice AI: Speak the asset name, fault description, and priority. The complete work order is created and assigned in 30 seconds. WhatsApp: Operators send a message to the maintenance inbox — the request enters Cryotos immediately. QR Code: Scan the label on the machine to pre-fill the asset details and create the WO in two taps.

  • WhatsApp Request Intake
  • QR Code Asset Scan
  • Work Request Portal
  • Email + SMS Requests

When a Machine Fault Fires, the Work Order Is Already in the Queue

The biggest delay in reactive maintenance isn't the repair — it's the time between fault detection and work order creation. An operator detects an alarm, calls the maintenance desk, the maintenance desk creates the WO, assigns it, notifies the technician. By then, 30–60 minutes have passed.

Cryotos eliminates this delay. SCADA, DCS, and IoT sensor signals connect directly to Cryotos. When a SCADA alarm fires or an IoT reading crosses a threshold, Cryotos auto-creates the work order, assigns it to the correct team, and sends an alert — in seconds. The equipment itself creates the maintenance response.

  • SCADA Alarm → Auto WO
  • IoT Threshold → Auto WO
  • 8-Second Response Time
  • Trigger Data Embedded in WO

Every Corrective Work Order Requires Root Cause Before It Can Close

Closing a corrective work order without documenting root cause is why the same equipment fails again next month. Cryotos makes the 5 Whys root cause analysis mandatory before any corrective work order can close. The technician cannot submit the "Completed" status without filling in the 5 Whys chain.

  • Pump shaft seal is leaking → bearing seizure
  • Bearing seized due to loss of lubrication
  • Lubrication failed — grease gun was empty
  • Grease gun not checked before field work
  • No pre-job tool check step in the PM checklist

Every Maintenance Photo Is Taken Now — Not From a Stored Gallery

If a maintenance platform allows technicians to attach gallery photos to work orders, a photo taken 2 days ago can be submitted as evidence of today's repair. This creates a false maintenance record — a data integrity failure that defeats the purpose of photographic documentation.

Cryotos enforces LIVE camera capture only. When a work order requires before/after photos, the technician must take them directly through the Cryotos app at the moment of work. The system embeds a timestamp and GPS location in every image. Gallery uploads are blocked at the system level. Every photo in a Cryotos work order was taken at the right place, at the right time, by the right person.

  • LIVE Camera Capture Only
  • Gallery Uploads Blocked
  • Timestamp + GPS Metadata
  • Before + After Evidence

No Work Order Misses Its SLA Window Without the Supervisor Knowing

Define response and resolution time targets for each work order type and priority level. When a critical WO approaches its SLA deadline, Cryotos sends an escalation alert to the assigned technician. When SLA is breached, an escalation message goes directly to the maintenance supervisor — automatically, without any manual follow-up required.

Multi-level approval workflows define the chain of sign-offs required before a work order can proceed or close. Technician submits → Supervisor reviews → Safety approves → Manager closes. Each step requires a digital e-signature with timestamp — creating an auditable approval record for compliance and accountability.

  • SLA Targets per WO Type
  • Auto-Escalation Alerts
  • Multi-Level Digital Sign-offs
  • Configurable Approval Chains
  • SLA Compliance Dashboard
