Energy and utilities asset management
Improve your asset management strategy and optimize asset performance with a suite of applications for operations and HSE tools for the utilities and energy industry
Reduce operational costs and maximize output
Energy and utilities (E&U) provide affordable, reliable and sustainable energy, but are obstructed by infrastructure, a retiring workforce and unpredictable output from new distributed energy resources.
The IBM® Maximo® Application Suite, an AI-based asset management solution, addresses these challenges in power generation, transmission, distribution and water organizations. Maximo offers industry-specific solutions, such as Maximo for Nuclear Power Plants, and best practices for asset performance management (APM), preventive and predictive maintenance, remote monitoring, computer vision, safety and mobility tools. With a unified view, integrated workflows and regulatory compliance support, Maximo helps asset owners increase asset availability and reduce operational risk, unplanned downtime and unnecessary routine maintenance.
Watch this demo to see a reliability engineer optimize energy grid reliability by using IBM Maximo® Health and IBM Maximo® Predict applications with a prebuilt dashboard.
Enable operations, maintenance and finance personnel to improve decision-making processes for maintenance scheduling, asset replacement and new infrastructure investments to increase profitability.
Collect and analyze historical and real-time KPIs to determine asset health, predict impending failure and plan condition-based maintenance and schedules with our next-generation software available today.
Drive efficiency across asset management to improve the robustness of utility infrastructures while improving energy and environment management, water efficiency, emissions and waste.
Jump-start operations with embedded data models, workflows and processes for electrical transmission and distribution, power generation, gas, water treatment and wastewater.
