The Clash ( or How to Manage the Digitization of Records and Documents)

Body

No this is not blog about one of your old favorite punk rock bands.

It's about the growth pains and some success we have had in trying to store, execute and manage processes in Maximo when the data is only a reflection of  information normally created , viewed, and revised in an external system.

Maximo Nuclear has already moved comprehensively into the Operational Configuration Management of Locations and Assets with its Clearance (Advanced Lock-out  Tag-Out) and Lineups Applications. Where the clearance application can create and manage its own process data, Lineups like most nuclear processes, are one of  a vast number of highly detailed procedures to direct every aspect of  plant operations. Those procedures are created  in word processing applications and  controlled in an enterprise content management system like FileNet.
