At 2:00 PM on a Thursday, a critical HVAC compressor fails on the production floor at a facility management company. The maintenance team scrambles, orders a $4,500 replacement motor, stocks it, and moves forward. Two months later, during end-of-year audits, facility management discovers that the original motor was still under its three-year manufacturer warranty. The deadline to file a warranty claim had passed three weeks earlier. That $4,500 replacement cost ate directly into the department's bottom line — recoverable money lost to poor warranty tracking. Studies show that 35% of warranty-eligible repairs are paid out-of-pocket simply because teams lack a system to track coverage. OxMaint's warranty management CMMS ensures every asset, from critical HVAC components to individual replacement parts, is linked directly to OEM documentation with automatic expiration alerts and guided claim procedures.

Six Pillars of Professional Warranty Management
Digital Warranty Registration
At equipment purchase, capture warranty start/end dates, OEM contact info, coverage terms, and claim procedures. OxMaint stores this directly in the asset profile. Serial numbers are auto-linked, preventing duplicate registrations and warranty disputes.
OEM Documentation Storage
Warranty certificates, service contracts, maintenance schedules, and OEM manuals attach directly to the equipment record. Technicians access documentation on mobile at the asset location — no hunting through file cabinets during emergency repairs.
Automated Expiration Alerts
Alerts trigger 30, 60, and 90 days before warranty expiry. Facility managers conduct end-of-warranty inspections to identify failing components still under coverage, maximizing claim value before protection ends.
Warranty-Flagged Work Orders
When a work order is created on a warranty-covered asset, OxMaint flags active coverage immediately. Technicians see which parts/labor are covered, claim procedures, and required documentation — preventing out-of-pocket repairs on equipment still under OEM protection.
Guided Claim Workflows
OxMaint provides step-by-step digital workflows for submitting claims. Required documentation — photos, diagnostics, maintenance proof, serial numbers — is captured automatically, reducing claim denial rates and accelerating reimbursement.
Claim Tracking & SLA Monitoring
OxMaint tracks warranty claims from submission through approval. Vendor SLAs — response time, approval timelines, payment schedules — are monitored. If vendors miss contractual obligations, the system surfaces it for dispute resolution.

Never Pay for a Covered Repair Again. Every Warranty Is Tracked. Every Claim Is Captured.
Deploy warranty management CMMS that flags active coverage at time of repair, alerts you before expiration, guides you through claim procedures, and tracks vendor performance against SLAs — ensuring maximum recovery of warranty value across your entire asset portfolio.
Asset Lifecycle Management With OxMaint
Component-Level Warranty Tracking
Major equipment has sub-components with separate warranty coverage — motors, compressors, panels, controls. OxMaint tracks warranty for the complete assembly AND for individual components, ensuring no part falls through the cracks when repairs are needed.
Maintenance Proof for Warranty Defense
OEM warranties require proof of OEM-compliant maintenance. OxMaint logs every PM, inspection, and repair with timestamp, technician, and parts used. When claims are filed, you have audit-ready documentation proving maintenance was performed per OEM specs — eliminating claim denials.
Repair-vs-Replace Economics
OxMaint tracks cumulative repair costs against asset value. When annual repair spend approaches 40-50% of replacement cost, the system flags it — triggering capital planning discussions about replacement versus continued repair cycles.
Total Cost of Ownership Trending
OxMaint calculates TCO across equipment lifecycle — purchase price, warranty costs, PM expenses, emergency repairs, energy consumption. As equipment ages, TCO increases and becomes visible, supporting data-driven replacement decisions and capital budgets.
Frequently Asked Questions — Warranty Management & Claims
"Before OxMaint, we had warranty certificates scattered across three departments. We were paying for repairs on equipment that should have been covered by OEM warranty. In year one of deployment, we recovered $78,000 in warranty claims that would have been paid out-of-pocket. The system paid for itself in the first quarter."
