Smart Work Scheduling in Water Utilities

Join BPD Zenith to discover how South Staffs & Cambridge Water reduced resource costs and improved performance by optimising job allocation/scheduling to field service engineers, with Scheduler Plus and Maximo Anywhere...

South Staffs and Cambridge Water was using IBM Maximo version 7.1 and an in-built system to manage its maintenance and overall asset management. As part of a major upgrade project, they were looking to merge all maintenance routines into one central enterprise asset management (EAM) system, while updating systems and processes to ensure continued support and compliance, in line with company policy and industry guidelines.

Working with IBM Business Partner BPD Zenith, South Staffs Water upgraded to IBM Maximo EAM 7.6.1.1. to connect its workforce with a mobile solution that would help improve data management and could take advantage of the latest techniques to help reduce resource costs and increase performance/completed job output.

By opting for a managed approach leveraging BPD’s MaxiCloud Solution, SSC Water had extended flexibility and support, and access to BPD’s range of MaxiCloud enhancement tools, integrations, add-ons, and IoT solutions. This would ensure both time-to-value, licensing and implementation costs would be fully optimized, to accelerate and increase ROI.
