Based in South Bend, Indiana, the facility has 19 grow lines, a cold storage pack house, and a technical area for nutrient mixing, sowing, and other maintenance activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-challenge\">Challenge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The maintenance team at Pure Green Farms relied on whiteboards, sticky notes, and group chats to manage maintenance tasks and document key asset details. While this system worked at first, it quickly became chaotic and stressful as critical information was scattered across various locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In one instance, a bale shredder breakdown required replacement of its lifting chains. As the farm went idle, the maintenance team scrambled to gather asset details, track down manufacturer contacts, and assemble the information needed for the repair. When they finally located the files, many were outdated and required further research. These delays prolonged the downtime \u2014 disrupting operations and costing valuable productivity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"the_challenge\" class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\"><!-- <blockquote id=\"testimonial-block_abdafd14e7b80780a17ae9be0d829620\" class=\"testimonial \">\n    <p>If one thing breaks, the whole packhouse team is idle, the technical team is idle, and the maintenance team is scrambling to get the farm back up and running.<\/p>\n    <cite>\n        <span>AJ Popovic<\/span>\n        <span>Maintenance Technician<\/span>\n    <\/cite>\n<\/blockquote>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n    #testimonial-block_abdafd14e7b80780a17ae9be0d829620 {\n        background: #E7F0FA;\n        color: #000000;\n    }\n<\/style> -->\n\n<div id=\"testimonial-block_abdafd14e7b80780a17ae9be0d829620\" class=\"key-tcards single-tcard-elem  testimonial kd-cardchild-block_abdafd14e7b80780a17ae9be0d829620\" style=\"background-color: #E7F0FA;\" >\n    <div class=\"tcards-image\"><\/div>\n    <div class=\"tcards_wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"tcards_message\"><h6 style=\"color: #000000;\">\u201cIf one thing breaks, the whole packhouse team is idle, the technical team is idle, and the maintenance team is scrambling to get the farm back up and running.\u201d<\/h6><\/div>\n        <div class=\"tcards_header\">\n            <span class=\"tcards-name\" style=\"color: #000000;\">AJ Popovic<span class=\"tcards-job\" style=\"color: #000000;\">Maintenance Technician<\/span><\/span>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>The manual system left little time for preventive maintenance, forcing the team into constant firefighting mode with a growing to-do list. Downtime became a persistent issue and the team struggled to efficiently resolve breakdowns without easy access to equipment information or a centralized parts inventory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This reactive approach took a toll on the entire team.

Before they knew it, Pure Green Farms had replaced their whiteboard and sticky notes with QR codes posted throughout their facilities. The rest of the company embraced the new system, submitting work requests electronically and receiving real-time updates as tasks were completed. \u201cEveryone picked it up quickly and suddenly all our maintenance requests that had been up on the wall were now on our phones and laptops. It simplified the operation for absolutely everyone here,\u201d says Popovic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Building their preventive maintenance program was equally straightforward. The team created PM templates with detailed instructions, parts, and asset information, then scheduled them to recur automatically. Centralizing all maintenance operations has saved time on admin tasks and allowed the team to focus on proactive tasks to reduce downtime.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<lottie-player src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/PFG_EditPM_04.json\" background=\"transparent\"  speed=\"1\"  style=\"\" loop autoplay><\/lottie-player>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"the_result\" class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-result\">Result<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Limble has transformed maintenance at Pure Green Farms. What was once a reactive operation spending 70% of their time fixing broken equipment is now a proactive, efficient maintenance team preventing failures before they occur. Time previously wasted searching for asset information or chasing down parts is now used for actual maintenance work. Daily meetings to discuss to-do lists have been replaced by effortless task assignments and prioritization in Limble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pure Green Farms has not only streamlined their general operations and enhanced their preventive maintenance program but also achieved a remarkable 7.5x faster recovery speed. This means that even during rare disruptions, like a brief power loss, they can restore operations faster \u2014 reducing costly downtime and keeping production on track.e.<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- <blockquote id=\"testimonial-block_95cfd2f96c5ce3a48e82449762293401\" class=\"testimonial \">\n    <p>We briefly lost power recently and were able to recover our packing department in 20 minutes.

And beyond the monetary savings is the huge morale improvement for everyone. Even our CEO has commented on it,\u201d says Popovic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The maintenance team now has complete control over their operations, allowing them to work with confidence and focus. They proactively care for their equipment, keep production running smoothly, and minimize after-hours calls. \u201cI am on call three nights a week and I haven\u2019t gotten a call in three months. Before Limble I would get a call every night. Limble has made it possible to simply go home and not think about work for a bit.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Limble has been a game-changer. It simplifies onboarding, helping new staff get up to speed quickly and empowering them to work independently. From saving time to boosting morale and cutting downtime, Limble has improved every aspect of Pure Green Farms\u2019 operations \u2014 including helping the maintenance team get a good night\u2019s
