Create a System

In RAMP, a system represents a group of assets that perform a specific function within a garage (for example, a PARCS lane, CCTV network, or HVAC system).

Before adding assets, you must first create the system and configure its details.


How to Create a System

Follow these steps to create a new system:

Step 1: Select the Location
Choose the location where the system is installed.
This ensures the system is linked to the correct area within the garage.

Step 2: Choose the System Type
Select the appropriate system type (for example: HVAC, PARCS, CCTV).

The system type helps categorise the system for:

  • Reporting

  • Maintenance tracking

  • Ticket filtering

Always select the most accurate type available.

Step 3: Enter a System Name
Provide a clear and descriptive system name or lane identifier.

Examples:

  • “Entry Lane 1”

  • “Level 2 CCTV Network”

  • “Basement HVAC Unit A”

Use consistent naming conventions to make reporting and ticket logging easier.

Step 4: Add a Description (Optional)
You may include a brief description explaining:

  • What the system covers

  • Any specific operational notes

  • Unique identifiers or details

While optional, descriptions are helpful for larger sites or complex setups.

Step 5: Assign Contact Lists
Select the relevant contact lists for:

  • Ticket notifications

  • Maintenance notifications

These contact groups will be notified when activity occurs, depending on notification settings.

Make sure the correct stakeholders are assigned to avoid missed updates.

Step 6: Save the System
Click Save to finalise the system.

Once saved, the system can be used across:

  • Ticket logging

  • Maintenance scheduling

  • Reporting

After creating a system, the next step is to add assets to that system.

Assets represent the individual components that make up the system and allow for more detailed tracking and maintenance.


When creating a system:

  • Use clear and consistent naming

  • Select the correct system type

  • Confirm the correct location

  • Assign appropriate contact lists

Accurate system setup ensures reliable reporting, smoother ticket management, and clearer operational visibility.
