Abstract
The following quote was obtained by the news editors from the background information supplied by the inventors: “In traditional facility maintenance workflows, organizations attempt to eliminate the need to manage their not-to-exceed (NTE) limits for work orders by setting arbitrary limits on all vendor invoices or cos t estimates. This workflow presents organizations with a set of challenges becau se the process of setting NTE limits is manual and tedious, NTE limits are often not updated for long periods of time, and NTE limits are not set based on any e mpirical data and are therefore either too high or too low.
