Harvard University’s Mobile Journey

Harvard University’s Mobile Journey

Maximo World 2018 Community User Group 46:30

by Jeff Smith, Harvard University

Harvard University recently transformed all of the critical work process associated with the maintenance and operations of its 25MSF physical plant, located in Cambridge and Boston Massachusetts. This successful project impacts more than 700 employees, including more than 250 EZMax Mobile users. Unique challenges of this project included the full integration of all asset and work management records with hourly payroll across three unique labor agreements, purchasing, and customer billing. (Harvard’s internal groups compete with external vendors for services, under a full cost recovery model. This “zero mandates” environment produces clear accountabilities and value measurements for the decisions of insourcing versus outsourcing.) The results of this project include a comprehensive set of integrated tools expected to dramatically increase efficiencies, improve regulatory compliance, and lower administrative costs. Annualized results include elimination of more than 50,000 time cards and 250,000 lines of payroll data entry; 70,000 paper work orders; 12,000 paper purchase orders, more than 10,000 additional forms extending to materials needs, time off requests, and overtime tracking. All of the new Maximo / EZMax Mobile functions are directly interfacing with existing Peoplesoft®, Oracle®, and Progress® databases. This presentation will include a brief review of the fully integrated and paperless tools for: employee entry of daily time cards; absence reporting and time off requests; supervisory management of active and forecasted staffing rosters; automated distribution of overtime offers and response tracking; interactive vendor portal for materials requests; real time tracking of those orders from initial request through to final delivery at the local work site; reporting and tracking use of Lock Out / Tag Out equipment; fire safety system impairment and restoral tracking; reporting logs of all building inspections and tour results; real time work status updates for customers; as well as on-line work requests and reporting.

What to Expect When Moving to the Cloud

What to Expect When Moving to the Cloud

MaximoWorld 2018 Cloud Summit - 41:28

by Steve Richmond, Projetech

This session will show the benefits of employing a cloud solution for Enterprise Asset Management. Some of the key concepts covered include the pros and cons of a cloud environment, as well as, different deployment possibilities. Cloud computing can provide flexibility, agile “concept to go-live” implementation, and lower capital outlay. There are also the not-so-obvious benefits, such as economies of scale and the professional authority of the software provider. Cloud computing does not come without risk, so discussion will also explore the factors to consider with respect to a cloud EAM solution.

by Melissa Ekmark, Starboard Consulting and Joe Lonjin, Penn State University

Penn State University, working with Starboard, an IBM Business Partner, has created a Refrigerant tracking solution within Maximo that enables cradle to grave tracking of regulated materials including inventory, work costing, fulfillment, recovery of the materials, and safety considerations for the job site. Field technicians and office staff utilize the existing out of the box applications in Maximo to record the handling and usage details which can then be reported to the appropriate supervisors, stakeholders, and agencies as required by internal SOP’s and federal regulations; no add-on products or custom configurations required!

A Maximo Implementation with Reliability

A Maximo Implementation with Reliability

MaximoWorld 2017 Learning Session - 37:03
by Aaron Schofield, Electronic Data, Inc. and Scott Smith, Greater Toronto Airport Authority

When implementing a new EAM system, most enter with a desire for greater reliability. It can be a difficult task to determine what’s the best way to achieve greater reliability and the steps to take to get there. It is easy to fall into the trap of implementing your new system to function the way you have always done business and assume that the new system will “take care of it.” The key to success is to implement with Reliability in mind. In this session, we will discuss how the Greater Toronto Airport Authority (GTAA) implemented Maximo with Reliability in mind. We will discuss their current successes, use of new IoT technologies and their plans for future ways to enhance reliability. This in-depth look will not only discuss how GTAA achieve their reliability goals but will show you how to get on the path to reliability.

Performance Management

Performance Management

MaximoWorld 2017 RAP Talk - 19:46
by Anthony Honaker

Today’s business leaders are now placing greater emphasis on performance management, so they can manage outcomes due to their realization that citizen-based business intelligence tools provide limited value when it comes to process improvements. Those organizations that embrace performance management lead the competition because they have gained ability to manage their actions and instill a culture of continuous improvement.

In 2016, the independent technology research firm Gartner stated that ‘The BI platform category is undergoing the biggest transformation it has ever seen, as spending has come to a screeching halt in traditional BI platform investments.’ This discussion will explore how performance measurement has evolved beyond reporting and business intelligence into an objective driven process that focuses on business improvements and not just numbers.

Deploying Electronic Logbooks with Maximo

Deploying Electronic Logbooks with Maximo

MaximoWorld 2017 Learning Session - 41:25
by Bill Murphy and Kevin Wertz, Grifols Therapeutics

Over the years, Grifols has found great value in Maximo’s configurability to replace legacy processes and applications. Our latest effort resulted in the replacement of an old home-grown application to record logbook entries for critical utilities operations. Operators document critical utilities operations activities and events daily to ensure compliance with business and regulatory requirements, and the system is also used to document engineering changes to utilities systems made throughout the 150-acre site. The old system met the basic needs, but was limited in its configurability and was on IT “life support” due to the old technology used to run it.

By deploying electronic logbooks within Maximo, Grifols created a seamless and efficient way to link work orders, service requests, and logbook entries. We will present how we accomplished this within Maximo using the system’s simple configuration capabilities to develop a logbook application within core Maximo. Although there are some great off-the-shelf offerings for logbooks, we found that this solution proved to be a better fit for the utilities group’s processes. We also believe this solution will become the foundation for a future effort to replace all paper log books throughout the plant.

Stop Pushing on the Front of the Ship: Discover Trim Tabs

Stop Pushing on the Front of the Ship: Discover Trim Tabs

MaximoWorld 2017 Keynote - 40:15
by Terrence O'Hanlon, CEO/Publisher, Reliabilityweb.com and Uptime Magazine

As the large ocean liner cuts through the ocean, it would be almost impossible to turn the ship by pushing on the bow or the front of the ship. Even turning the rudder requires enormous effort. Learn to discover the Trim Tabs available in most organizations to create a more natural directional effort. One of my heroes, and innovative thought leader, Buckminster Fuller said, "The truth is that you get the low pressure to do things, rather than getting on the other side and trying to push the bow of the ship around against the high pressure. You build that low pressure by getting rid of a little nonsense, getting rid of things that don’t work and aren’t true until you start to get that trim-tab motion."
Join Terrence O'Hanlon for a vibrant and energetic keynote address designed to discover the Trim Tabs in your organization.
