Overall Satisfaction with IBM Maximo Application Suite

IBM Maximo Application Suite is one of the main tools we use to keep our equipment and facilities in good shape. With it, we handle work orders, track inventory, manage parts and supplies, and plan maintenance before things break down. It also connects well with other systems we use, like finance or ERP, so all the data flows together. That helps us work more efficiently and see what’s really going on with our assets.

Pros

  • Work management - we streamline creation, assignment and tracking of work orders for our maintenance team
  • We have much better visibility into health of our assets, which gives us valuable insights to make better decisions
  • With right proactive maintenance strategy we are able reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance costs
  • Adoption from our maintenance team was fast, as they have now all the information needed to perform their jobs right at the first time.

Cons

  • Steep learning curve from start and difficult for beginners
  • Pricing with App points is something you need get used to
  • Sub-records should have dedicated applications for easier viewing and management
  • Its hard to use the location features. Its a lot of steps you have to walk through.
  • We have been able to cut maintenance cost by 15%.
  • Our technicians improved their first-time fix rates aprox. by 42%
  • We are able to get insights form our data and based on that make more informed decisions.

In my experience, IBM Maximo Application Suite works really well in environments where you need to stay on top of a lot of equipment or assets. For example, in a manufacturing plant where I work, we use Maximo to track all maintenance work orders for machines on the production line. It help us schedule maintenance work, log repairs, and keep an eye on parts inventory so we didn’t run into delays

Evaluating IBM Maximo Application Suite and Competitors

  • Scalability
  • Integration with Other Systems
IBM Maximo Application Suite integrates well with other enterprise systems like ERP, financial, and supply chain platforms. For example, it can connect with SAP to sync purchase orders and inventory. That helped us in making decision.
We would not change a lot, perhaps put more emphasis on learning process for our users.
