Ankeny, IA – March 17, 2010 – Maintenance Book is a customizable maintenance tracking web application from KerberTech that gives fleet and equipment managers a comprehensive and economical way to record and retrieve service and repair information. A recent study shows that most organizations prefer Maintenance Book to their existing maintenance management systems.

Maintenance Book was created to provide businesses and agencies of all types and sizes an efficient way to keep their valuable inventory in peak condition and, as applicable, to realize a higher resale value when those capital items are retired. It provides the ability to log preventive maintenance and repair activities for an organization’s vehicles and other equipment. It indicates when a service is due (or past due) and can generate a comprehensive report detailing the entire maintenance history of a given piece of equipment.

The first public announcement of Maintenance Book came at the EntreFest! entrepreneurship conference in West Des Moines, IA on February 25th, 2010 where KerberTech’s owner and president, Jake Kerber, spoke about the new maintenance tracking application and the benefits of market research.

In his presentation, Kerber detailed a recent market study which shows that most companies prefer the new application produced by KerberTech for maintenance management. Kerber concluded his presentation with, "the application’s called 'Maintenance Book' and it just launched yesterday at www.KerberTech.com."

Strategic Marketing Services, an independent research firm, conducted the study referenced by Kerber. They determined that 57% of maintenance managers found KerberTech’s Maintenance Book to be superior to their existing maintenance management system. Reasons sited by the survey respondents include: user friendliness, flexibility, simple navigation, amount of information accessible, ease of information access, easy setup, easily learned, and cost.

Maintenance managers from 134 organizations of all sizes were surveyed for the study – including organizations maintaining fewer than 10 pieces of equipment to others with over 250. They represented the following industries: trucking/transportation, manufacturing, construction, utility, rental, and government.
