Avert builds and runs preventative maintenance systems for businesses with real equipment. We handle the setup, the scheduling, the reminders, and the follow-up — your team just scans a QR code when the work is done.
Flat monthly price, with your whole team included.
“It has completely changed how we approach our maintenance, allowing us to forecast costs and downtime in a much more efficient manner.”
Every year, unplanned equipment downtime costs U.S. industrial manufacturers an estimated $50 billion. Reactive maintenance is what keeps that meter running.
Most rollouts stall on bad data, thin training, and a crew that never adopts them. Buying the software is not the same as running the system.
Reminders end up in one person's head and a file the crew forgot about. Miss a few and you're back to fixing equipment after it breaks, which is the exact thing preventative maintenance (PM) is meant to stop.
A fully managed preventative maintenance system, customized to your facility and run by our team, not another app your crew has to learn.
We walk your facility, photograph and catalog every piece of equipment, and build your custom maintenance system from scratch. You don't touch a thing.
Every machine gets a QR code label. Employees scan it with their phone, fill out a 60-second form, and the record is logged automatically. There's no app to download, no account to set up, and nothing for anyone to learn.
Set it once and stop chasing people. Reminders go out at whatever frequency each machine needs, overdue tasks escalate straight to ownership, and on higher plans we trigger vendor work orders the moment a repair comes up.
Your dashboard shows upcoming tasks, compliance rates, and the full service history of every machine. You can see which equipment breaks most and where the money is actually going.
From first walkthrough to fully operational, following a fixed process with no surprises.
We visit your facility, assess your current maintenance setup, and document every asset. The audit is free, with no commitment to continue.
We configure your workspace, PM schedules, automation workflows, and owner dashboard, all loaded with your actual equipment.
We generate and deliver QR code labels for every asset. For local clients, we place them ourselves.
We walk your team through the system in under an hour, then monitor daily through the first week. After that, you're fully operational.
Monthly compliance reports, proactive monitoring, and regular check-ins. We handle changes same day.
The free preventative maintenance (PM) audit is the first step, and it comes before any payment. From there, one flat monthly price covers your whole team: floor workers, technicians, managers, and ownership.
We're waiving onboarding for our first Charlotte-area clients, in exchange for honest feedback and a testimonial. If you run real equipment with no system in place, it's the lowest price Avert will ever be.
Full setup, QR codes, automation, dashboard, and ongoing management.
Honest feedback during onboarding, and a testimonial if we deliver.
Same free audit either way. Book below, or email hello@avertautomation.com about founding pricing.

The audit takes about an hour. We walk your facility, catalog what we find, and hand you a written rundown of what a managed PM program would look like — and cost. The report is yours to keep whether or not you hire us.
