Reduce unplanned downtime, lower maintenance costs, improve grid resilience and reliability with unified asset lifecycle management
Reduce operational risks and maximize output
Energy providers face mounting pressure to deliver reliable, affordable, and sustainable power amid aging infrastructure, extreme weather, and the accelerating energy transition. Outdated assets, rising maintenance costs, and climate-driven disruptions strain grid reliability, while the integration of renewables adds complexity and new cost pressures. Disconnected systems and siloed data further limit visibility and slow decision-making, making it harder for utilities to respond quickly and effectively.
IBM Maximo Application Suite helps energy and utility companies shift from reactive to proactive operations with condition-based monitoring and data-driven insights. By analyzing real-time asset data, Maximo detects anomalies, predicts failures, prevents outages before they occur, and adapt when needed. This proactive approach reduces downtime, lowers maintenance costs, and strengthens reliability enabling utilities to deliver safer, more resilient, and sustainable energy to their customers.
Empower your operations, maintenance, and finance teams to make smarter, data-driven decisions on asset maintenance, replacement, and new infrastructure planning reducing costs, extending asset life, and improving profitability.
Leverage historical and real-time KPIs to assess asset health, anticipate failures, and schedule condition-based maintenance reducing downtime, extending equipment life, and optimizing operational efficiency with AI enabled features.
Enhance efficiency and resilience across utility operations to strengthen infrastructure, reduce environmental impact, and advance energy sustainability goals.
Anticipate risks before they escalate, protect every worker in every environment, and maintain regulatory confidence across complex operations.
What you can do
Maximo Manage and Field Service Management
Deliver reliable energy with greater efficiency and control. Maximo Manage streamlines work management, provides real-time visibility into assets and resource allocation helping utilities minimize costs and maximize operational performance. Paired with Maximo Field Service Management, you can enhance field operations through intelligent dispatching, advanced scheduling, and mobile access to critical asset information. Together, these solutions enable maintenance and dispatch teams to work seamlessly, resolve issues faster, and improve customer satisfaction across the entire service lifecycle.
Maximo Health, Safety and Environment (HSE)
Proactively manage operational risks, ensure regulatory compliance, and foster a safer work environment by strengthening both process and workplace safety. Maximo HSE is seamlessly integrated with work management, supporting real-time decision-making and a unified approach to health, safety, and environmental performance.
Maximo Health and Monitor
Enhance asset reliability and optimize lifecycle performance through AI-enabled condition-based maintenance. Leverage near real-time asset health insights to prevent failures, reduce unplanned downtime, and prioritize the right maintenance at the right moment.
Maximo Renewables
Boost performance, reduce unplanned downtime and maximize energy generation of renewables asset. Built for wind, solar and battery storage assets, Maximo Renewables closes the gap between expected and actual output, delivering greater reliability and profitability across the portfolio.
Maximo Vegetation Management
Prevent outages and wildfire risks by combining satellite imagery, LiDAR, and AI-driven insights to detect high-risk areas and prioritize trimming. By shifting from manual inspections to predictive maintenance, it reduces costs, improves safety, and enhances grid reliability. With real-time dashboards, KPIs, and integrated work order management, Maximo turns vegetation insights into action helping utilities optimize performance and build safer, more resilient, and cost-efficient operations.
IBM Outage Prediction
Anticipate and mitigate weather-driven disruptions—one of the greatest threats to grid reliability, safety, and customer satisfaction. With nearly 90% of global disasters caused by severe weather, the solution uses advanced forecasting and AI models to predict outages up to seven days in advance. Utilities can mobilize crews faster, reduce downtime, and restore power sooner—enhancing reliability, protecting communities, and building more resilient, data-driven operations.
