When should you Optimise your IBM Maximo Environment?

IBM Maximo Optimisation is the process of evaluating, reconfiguring, and upgrading an existing Maximo environment to improve system performance, user adoption, data accuracy, and operational alignment.

img_when-optimising-ibm-maximo-becomes-essential1-min

Optimising your IBM Maximo environment becomes essential when:

  • System processes have become inefficient or outdated compared to how your business currently operates.

  • Users are creating manual workarounds, spreadsheets, or offline records due to system complexity.

  • Operational and asset data is fragmented, incomplete, or difficult to extract for reporting.

  • Technology changes, platform upgrades (such as migrating to IBM Maximo Application Suite), or new Asset Management priorities require system enhancements.

How does Certus Deliver IBM Maximo Optimisation?

We align your IBM Maximo environment with current operational demands through a structured 5-step delivery process:

01

System & Health Assessment

Evaluate your current Maximo architecture, database health, user workflows, and operational pain points.

02

Gap Analysis & Strategy

Identify misalignments between default software configurations and your current operational requirements.

03

Upgrade & Reconfiguration

Execute targeted platform upgrades (including MAS transitions), module additions, and workflow refinements.

04

Integration & Mobility Enhancement

Improve connections between Maximo, enterprise systems (ERP/GIS/SCADA), and mobile field tools like Touchstone Mobile.

05

Ongoing Optimisation & Care

Provide ongoing health monitoring, user enablement, and application support to sustain long-term performance.

Frequently Asked Questions About IBM Maximo Optimisation

What is IBM Maximo optimisation?

IBM Maximo optimisation is the process of improving an existing Maximo environment so it better supports current asset, maintenance, and operational requirements. This can include upgrades, configuration changes, enhancements, integrations, and process improvements.

How do I know if our Maximo environment needs optimisation?

Common indicators include inefficient processes, manual workarounds, fragmented information, poor integrations, or an environment that hasn’t kept pace with operational or technology changes.

Can Certus help us upgrade IBM Maximo?

Yes. Maximo upgrades (including moving to IBM Maximo Application Suite) are central to Certus’s optimisation capability. We assess your existing environment and determine the right upgrade approach for your requirements.

Can Maximo be improved without replacing the whole environment?

Yes. Depending on your existing setup, you can often make significant improvements through configuration changes, enhancements, process refinements, or integration fixes without replacing the entire EAM environment.

What happens after an optimisation project?

Your Maximo environment should continue to evolve as requirements change. Certus provides ongoing application maintenance, specialist support, and continuous optimisation through our Managed Services & Support offering.
