IBM named a Leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Asset Management 2018

As the only Gold Partner of IBM in Vietnam authorized to deploy Maximo EAM, Avenue is thrilled to share the results of this year’s Gartner Magic Quadrant (MQ) for Enterprise Asset Management (EAM)!  IBM positioned highest for ‘Ability to execute and furthest for ‘Completeness of Vision’.  Although IBM EAM has been continuously in the top leading in Gartner for many years, the highest result of this year means a lot to Avenue JSC and made us extremely proud of what we have delivered to our clients in Vietnam for the past 15 years.

Why is IBM a leader in this space? They are investing in key strategic areas to drive the future of Maximo and extend value to our clients. These include:

  • Adding AI and advanced analytics to optimize maintenance and repair with asset performance management (APM)
  • Enabling new delivery models with a new Maximo SaaS offering launched last week
  • Incorporating blockchain to increase visibility and transparency across Maximo ecosystems
  • Integrations with AI-powered production solutions
  • Adapting to new workforce models with improved mobility capabilities
  • Industry solutions powered by AI
  • Delivering improved user experience

AI, analytics, mobility, blockchain, SaaS. These are just a few of the innovations that helped propel Maximo and there are many more to come!

Supercharging Maximo with AI and analytics

As mentioned above, they are investing heavily in their APM capabilities and the impact is beginning to show. While Maximo is great on its own, the power to improve how you manage your assets, operations and plants can be vastly increased with the introduction of APM. Using proprietary algorithms based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and analytics, our clients are enabled to take charge of their data, put it to work, and make more impactful and strategic decisions.

Maximo’s leading capabilities around SaaS

Simple, manageable, reliable, and secure are the cornerstones of a SaaS-based solution and IBM Maximo does that and more. Clients like Sodexo and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have realized benefits like increased visibility, reduction in operational complexity, faster upgrades, and improved scalability.

Blockchain, mobility and improved user experience give Maximo an edge

IBM Maximo Network on Blockchain: Traditionally, asset-related transactions are shared across a business network using interfaces between different systems of each party involved. Third parties carrying out work on a customer’s assets will often use systems that are isolated from Maximo. Without connected systems, the burden of communication across multiple parties can be challenging. This offering helps alleviate those challenges via smart contracts, increased collaboration, and improved visibility. Learn more about IBM Maximo Network on Blockchain.

Maximo Anywhere: It is estimated that 10 billion devices will be in use by 2020. Mobility in the workforce is critical and we have made significant investments in our mobile capabilities supporting Maximo.

Release of IBM Maximo 7.6.1: Since its release in July, nearly 70% of our customer base has already shifted to 7.6.1. This highlights the commitment to Maximo and the interest in continuously evolving it to meet the needs of shifting business priorities.

Maximo is the leader across every asset-intensive industry

IBM has been a leader in this space for decades. To give a sense of the breadth of industries that Maximo touches, here is a glimpse.

Maximo powers:

  •        14 of the 20 largest power generation utilities
  •        16 of the 24 largest automotive companies
  •        10 of the 13 largest pharmaceutical companies

Avenue JSC: We’re catching up speed !

The momentum around Maximo is only going to pick up speed. Thinking beyond assets, we are working on enhanement solutions to seamlessly integrate with Maximo. This will give our customers the opportunity to build upon Maximo  to improve throughput, quality, cost and on-time delivery in their operations.
