IBM’s Tivoli Software Group is developing 11 asset management applications under the Maximo brand that are aimed at consolidating how manufacturing, IT, and fleet-based assets are maintained, with distinct versions for various industry sectors.
Due at the end of the year, the offerings — based on IBM Maximo Asset Management 7.1, which was released in May — will include versions for the government, oil & gas, nuclear power, transportation, life sciences, and utilities sectors. The remainder of the new portfolio will include functional versions, such as Maximo for Service Providers, Maximo for Mobile, a configuration manager, a calibration manager, and a GIS-based spatial version, all of which IBM said will offer greater control over management while increasing asset reliability.
Managing Automation has also learned that IBM is in the early stages of mapping the integration between technologies from recent acquisition Cognos and Maximo to help customers improve their asset reliability.
