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

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

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

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.

An Objective Driven Approach to Manage Process Compliance with Maximo Data

Maximo Focused Forum - 43:22
by Chris Wheeler, Cohesive Solutions and Bill Steudler, Penn State University

Alignment is paramount to performance management. Strategic objectives must be well defined and agreed upon. KPIs critical to evaluation of such objectives must be consistently measured. Business process must be uniform to produce trustworthy data. Lacking any one of these ingredients eliminates the ability to draw a clear line of sight from strategy to execution where methodical performance improvement occurs.
In consideration to the performance management paradigm discussed above, how does an organization efficiently monitor business process compliance? Furthermore, how does one correlate process improvement initiatives to KPIs and measurements vital to the achievement of strategic objectives? Penn State did just that, leveraging a strategic objective based approach to enhance work management process compliance and establish change management initiatives bolstering enterprise performance.

Deploying Electronic Checksheet Rounds Efficiently with Maximo

Maximo Focused Forum - 26:55
by Bill Murphy and Anthony Tezak, Grifols Therapeutics

Grifols had used an old home-grown application to collect critical equipment meter readings on aging, obsolete handheld scanners. How to get them to switch to using Maximo? Operators perform multiple daily inspection routes and the overhead of daily work orders to execute them would be cumbersome. Plus, they need a simple mobile solution that allows them to scan a barcode to call up the correct location. We will present how we employed Maximo’s simple configuration and workflow capabilities to call up the route and guide the user through calling up the inspections by asset within the route. Then we'll show how we redesigned the routes and meter reading screen for use on a new rugged tablet device running over plant-wide Wi-Fi.
