Course overview
Asset management systems fail to deliver value when master data, security, workflows, preventive maintenance rules and inventory transactions are poorly administered. Maintenance teams then face duplicate records, inaccurate work histories, unplanned stock shortages, weak approval controls and reports that cannot be trusted. Administrators need to translate maintenance policy into controlled IBM Maximo configurations while protecting data quality, system performance and auditability.
This course develops the administrative skills required to configure and support IBM Maximo Manage for maintenance and engineering operations. Participants work through the application architecture, organisations and sites, security groups, domains, classifications, assets, locations, work management, job plans, preventive maintenance, inventory, purchasing, integrations and reporting. They learn how configuration choices affect planners, supervisors, technicians, storeroom teams, procurement staff and operational managers. The course also addresses configuration governance, migration between environments, incident triage and routine system health checks.
Instruction combines concise technical briefings with guided configuration scenarios, maintenance cases, group analysis and system administration simulations. Cases reflect asset-intensive settings such as utilities, transport fleets, manufacturing plants, public infrastructure and facilities portfolios. Participants produce a practical Maximo administration pack containing security, data, workflow, reporting and change-control artefacts that can be adapted for their own system. The five-day programme runs from 08:30 to 16:30 each day, providing approximately 6.5 contact hours daily. Participants receive a certificate of completion.
The course suits professionals responsible for maintaining Maximo configuration and data, as well as maintenance leaders who need to govern how the system supports operational control.
