Membership
Who can be a member of the CMS?
Every able-bodied citizen can become a member of HDO under equal conditions in the manner provided by this Statute. Member status is acquired by a person who voluntarily becomes a member by submitting an application form and paying a membership fee. For a minor under the age of 14, the legal representative or guardian gives written consent.
In addition to the largest manufacturing and service companies in the wider environment, our members are mostly people with executive and managerial functions in the field of maintenance.
What we want to motivate and achieve is greater involvement of people in the field of engineering, production, quality management, environmental protection, controlling and business development because we believe that only a comprehensive and unique approach to the effects of physical asset management can achieve optimal results for owners and all other stakeholders (clients, employees, owners, local community, etc.)
Why to be a member of CMS?
Areas of maintenance and functional use of physical assets in organizations are often neglected and approached in a lump sum and unsystematic (only after the occurrence of certain delays and failures that are reflected in difficulties in the functioning of other systems). Maintainers often feel misunderstood and disrespected by their role and importance from colleagues within the organization. Therefore, it is even more important to establish connections and contacts with the HDO community, as a society facing the same challenges and striving to share best practices with its members and offer them skills and knowledge for effective and successful communication and building comprehensive asset management systems within and between organizations.
Therefore, we especially want to encourage and encourage the involvement in our work of all those experts who approach the maintenance and management of physical assets in a comprehensive way using knowledge of activities in the following functions: procurement, engineering, controlling, finance, quality, environment and general management!
