2 Maximo 7 Preview Topics Enhanced User Interface and Security Capabilities Migration Manager Linear Assets Enhanced Process and Work Management Reporting

3 Maximo 7 Preview Security and UI

4 Conditional, Dynamic Security Data Restrictions - Control Access Characteristics to Objects and Attributes based on Data and/or User Group - Characteristics include Read Only and Hidden - Examples: Tradesmen User Group cannot view WOs in Waiting Approval Status Hide pay rate field on the Labor record based on user group; e.g. Tradesman Hide WO cost fields for Tradesmen, but visible for Supervisors WOs in Complete Status are read-only for Tradesmen User Group, but not for Planners Asset records are read-only if the status is Salvage Application Access - Conditional Access to Applications Read, Insert, Modify and Delete - Conditional Access to Actions E.g., Change Status, Add to New Parent, View Total Costs, etc.

5 Conditional Expression Manager Persistent Definition and Re-use of Common Conditions

6 Conditional Access

7 Data Restrictions Object and Attribute Level Restrictions Can be made Read Only, Required or Hidden Can be Conditionally Applied

8 Conditional UI Control the UI based on Data and/or User Group - Controls characteristics of UI Controls E.g., Fields, Table Windows, Tabs, Buttons, Actions, etc. - Characteristics include Required, Read Only, Hidden Examples: - Hide Asset Application Safety tab for IT Users - Different labels, colors, etc on the same field for different groups of users; e.g. Labor for US users and Labour for Canadian or UK users

9 Conditional UI

10 Maximo 7 Preview Migration Manager

11 Migration Manager: Maximo Configuration Capabilities Maximo releases provide increasing configuration capabilities - Fewer customizations (coding) Current migration process is cumbersome - Manually executed database scripts, export/import - Prone to sequencing errors - Seeding often incomplete ( I missed that configuration! ) Security Workflow Screen Designer Database Configuration Reports Application Designer Domains Sets CronTasks Communication Templates Escalations Enhanced Security Enhanced Workflow Database Configuration Enhanced Reports OMP Integration Web Services Library Launch In Context Configuration Import/Export Logging Properties Application Designer Domains Sets Cron Tasks Communication Templates Escalations Enhanced Security Enhanced Workflow Database Configuration Reports Maximo 5.2 Maximo Maximo 7.1 Configuration applications in Maximo

12 Configuration Migration Process Migration of Configurations between Maximo environments Supports standard rollout environments: - DEV->TEST->PRODUCTION Purpose: - Seed a new Maximo environment with all configurations and customizations Production Server 1 PROD DB Production Server 2 PROD DB Production Server 3 PROD DB Development Server DEV DB Test Server TEST DB

13 Migration Manager Manages Packages - containers for Maximo configuration information Package has a life-cycle: Define Create Distribute Deploy Package can be Snapshot or Delta Configuration Import/Export also provides: Snapshot configuration/customization for support purposes (IBM support) General purpose package-based export/import tool between Maximo environments Packaged content delivery through OPAL Maximo solutions and add-ons, including Industry Solutions Tivoli Process Managers

14 Migration Groups Migration Groups define logical sets of Objects (and their relationships) Also defined is the Order, which ensure that data being Migrated is appropriately sequenced New Groups can be defined in addition to those delivered out of the box

15 Package Definition

16 Package Creation

17 Maximo 7 Preview - Linear Assets

18 Linear Assets Non linear Assets Linear Assets Mobile (fleet, vehicles) Fixed Physical Assets (facilities) Component-based Assets (aircraft, ship) Roads Pipelines (sewers, oil pipelines) Railway tracks Installed, maintained, replaced as a whole Preserved and restored in place, and in segments A non Linear Asset occupies a defined space and can be tracked by its location or modeled as part of a parent child hierarchy Linear Assets have linear properties and often connect with each other by their relationship with the linear infrastructure itself

19 Linear Assets WO 127 WO Speed Limit Lanes 4 3 Surface Exits Pavement Concrete Asset A 0 50

20 Linear Assets Linear Attributes, Actions conditionally visible Multiple, Configurable Linear Referencing Methods

21 Features Entities such as Mile Posts, Signs, Guardrails, Junctions can be managed as Features, rather than having to create and manage Assets Features can be Point (e.g., Mile Post, Junction) or Linear (e.g. Guardrails, Mow-able Acreage, )

22 Specifications

23 Relationships Multiple Relationships can be identified between Assets - Precedes and Succeeds (I 95 MD Precedes I 95 PA) - Intersects, Passes Over, Passes Under - Joins, Parallels

24 Maximo 7 Preview - Process and Work Management Enhancements

25 Enhanced Process and Work Management Multiple Assets, Locations on Work Orders, Tickets Enhanced Swap capabilities Automated Flow Control of WO Tasks Status Management New WO Task Application Job Plan Enhancements - Nested Job Plans - Attached Documents at Job Plan Task level Classification-based Attributes

26 Job Plans Nested Job Plans Reusable Processes and Procedures; Generates Work Order Hierarchies Automated Flow Control Controls Execution of Work; Automates Processes Classification Based Attributes Similar to Asset, Location and Item; Provides Job Specific Attributes to Job Plans and Work Orders

27 Multiple Assets and Locations on Work Orders
