Frequently Asked Questions

What is MAMAT?

MAMAT (Management & Maintenance Application Tool) is a local-first, multi-user, annual-subscription asset & compliance management application designed specifically for small and mid-sized organizations that must document, track, and prove compliance.

It functions as a structured, evidence-ready operating backbone for:

  • Devices & equipment
  • Maintenance
  • Calibration
  • Compliance
  • Documentation
  • Cyber & safety tasks
  • Risk controls
  • Audit readiness

MAMAT replaces spreadsheets with a disciplined, intuitive system that improves reliability and reduces regulatory risk.

Why is MAMAT local, not cloud-based?

Many regulated industries cannot risk cloud storage or outages. MAMAT is intentionally local-first because it guarantees:

  • Full data control
  • No internet dependency
  • No exposure to cloud breaches
  • No PAY-PER-USER cloud traps
  • Predictable annual subscription cost
  • Audit-ready evidence stored on your own system

For medical, offshore, industrial, manufacturing, laboratory, and OT/ICS environments, local-first is the safest architecture available.

Is MAMAT a subscription product?

Yes — MAMAT is an annual subscription application.

The subscription ensures:

  • Continuous updates
  • New modules & improvements
  • Regulatory alignment (e.g., QMSR 2026 updates, NIST updates)
  • Ongoing compatibility with Windows/Office environments
  • Priority support & maintenance
  • Security patches and version enhancements

Importantly:

No per-user fees
No per-device fees
No cloud hosting fees
No forced long-term contracts

Just one predictable annual cost per installation (per company, per vessel, or per site depending on your industry).

Can I customize MAMAT to match my equipment and environment?

Yes — MAMAT includes 24 user-definable device attributes, making it one of the most adaptable asset systems available.

Common custom attributes include:

  • Calibration intervals
  • Hazard category
  • Firmware / software version
  • Cleaning or sterilization needs
  • IT/OT identifiers (IP/MAC/etc.)
  • Device classification (Class I/II/III)
  • Supplier, contract, warranty
  • Environmental conditions
  • Location hierarchy
  • Regulatory tags

These fields make MAMAT uniquely powerful for specialized industries.

Which industries use MAMAT?

Ideal for any environment that needs reliable, auditable equipment control:

  • Medical device companies
  • Manufacturing & automation
  • Offshore oil & gas (one subscription per MODU/vessel)
  • Cruise ships
  • Laboratories & research facilities
  • Technical education labs
  • Healthcare clinics
  • OT/ICS environments
  • Cyber-compliance-driven small businesses
  • Defense subcontractors
  • Facilities with maintenance burdens

Where there is equipment + compliance, MAMAT thrives.

Does MAMAT help with ISO 13485, FDA QMSR 2026, NIST, HIPAA, or IEC 62443 compliance?

Yes.
MAMAT includes:

  • Requirement mapping
  • Audit-ready record control
  • Traceable task history
  • Calibration & maintenance logs
  • Document references
  • Compliance-taggable tasks

  • Calibration logs
  • Compliance evidence
  • Custom reports you design

Auditors love the clarity.

Does MAMAT include mass-update tools?

Yes.

You can bulk update:

  • Attributes
  • Locations
  • Compliance mappings
  • Assigned tasks
  • Classifications

This saves hours of manual editing.

Does MAMAT maintain a lifetime history of every device?

Yes — every task becomes part of the device’s chronological, immutable log.

Exactly what auditors and regulators expect.

What is included in the annual subscription?

Your subscription provides:

  • All major updates
  • Regulatory-sync updates (e.g., QMSR 2026 rule changes)
  • Security patches
  • Feature enhancements
  • Priority support
  • Bug fixes
  • Compatibility maintenance with new Windows/Office versions
  • Access to new modules (as released)

The subscription keeps MAMAT current, secure, and audit-ready.

Why does MAMAT use a subscription model?

Because regulatory environments change.

  • QMSR replaces 21 CFR 820 in 2026
  • NIST 800-171 revisions
  • IEC 62443 updates
  • Cybersecurity maturity requirements
  • HIPAA updates
  • EU MDR/IVDR document expectations

A one-time-purchase software model becomes outdated — fast.
MAMAT’s subscription ensures you never fall behind.

Is MAMAT affordable for small companies?

Yes — affordability is a core design goal.

You pay:

  • One annual subscription
  • One installation/site/vessel
  • Unlimited users
  • No per-device fees
  • No cloud hosting
  • No lock-in

This gives small companies enterprise-level discipline at a scale they can afford.
