The challenge

Planning complexity
outgrows traditional tools.

As operations scale, the bottleneck is no longer data availability — it's coordination, visibility and alignment at execution.

Spreadsheet dependency

Scheduling still relies on Excel files, manual transfers and fragmented views of work orders, crews and priorities.

No feedback loops

Without real-time synchronisation, schedules drift from field reality and trigger costly reactive rescheduling.

Invisible resource conflicts

Absences, skill conflicts and overloads remain hidden until they disrupt field execution.

Eroded trust in the schedule

Decision-makers lack visibility into the gap between what is planned and what is actually executed — making any improvement hard to measure.

What it costs Slower decisions, reduced confidence in schedules, and avoidable coordination overhead before work reaches the field.
The solution

MX-OptiPlan: a planning cockpit
built for IBM Maximo.

Synchronise, visualise and optimise your scheduling in the environment your teams already use — no parallel data layer, no disconnected tool.

01 · Synchronise

Native Maximo data, no duplication

Instantly consolidate work orders, labour and constraints into a unified planning view, loaded automatically from Maximo. No manual input, no parallel layer to maintain.

02 · Visualise

Clear views: Daily, Weekly, Monthly

Turn Maximo data into actionable planning views across all time horizons: day, week, month. Less time navigating data, more time deciding.

03 · Optimise

Conflicts anticipated, capacity rebalanced

Resolve conflicts, rebalance capacity and improve execution performance through real-time planned vs. actual feedback.

What sets us apart

A planning model
built to last.

Not just speed — an architecture aligned with Maximo data, execution and governance.

01 — Data

Native Maximo data

Operate directly on trusted Maximo data — no duplicated planning layer to govern, no synchronisation to maintain.

Less spreadsheet dependency, more confidence in decisions.
02 — Real-time

Automatic synchronisation

The planning cockpit is always current thanks to automatic loading on login and targeted on-demand refresh.

A workspace always ready, always aligned with field reality.
03 — Horizons

Multi-horizon control

Plan continuously across the day, week and month in one environment — no model break, no loss of continuity.

A consistent view from short to medium term, without switching tools.
04 — Execution

Execution visibility

Compare planned vs. actual to strengthen feedback loops and improve execution discipline over time.

Plans that improve cycle after cycle, backed by measurable data.
Who it's for

Three stakeholders,
one planning model.

A consistent answer for operations, planning and field teams — without multiplying tools, interfaces or duplicating data.

Clarity & execution

Execute daily and weekly plans in a clear visual environment designed for the way maintenance teams actually think.

Validation metrics

Six KPIs to back
the decision.

A structured pilot, measured on concrete criteria — to move from demonstration to deployment decision.

01

Planning cycle time

Time between login and producing an optimised first schedule ready to share with teams.

02

Conflict reduction

Number of conflicts, overloads and inconsistencies identified and resolved before field execution.

03

Time saved

Manual coordination effort avoided compared to the previous spreadsheet mode, measured over the pilot period.

04

Schedule adherence rate

Gap between planned work and actual field execution during the pilot period — measured against Maximo data.

05

User adoption

Ease of use for planners in recurring scenarios — measured on concrete cases, not in theory.

06

Decision speed

Time required to reschedule after a field change, an unexpected event or a priority reallocation.

Implementation

Install · Configure · Execute.
From deployment to real data, fast.

A clear path from installation to real operational planning scenarios, guided by our IBM Maximo consultants.

01
Step 1 Installation

Deployment in your Maximo environment

Setting up the MX-OptiPlan component in the Maximo environment, aligning functional scope, sites and access rules with your IT team.

02
Step 2 Configuration

Activating the planning model

Configuring the cockpit for work orders, labour, crews, assignments and constraints — in collaboration with your planners.

03
Step 3 Execution

First real planning scenario

Running a first daily or weekly scenario, measured against concrete criteria, with operational feedback and a continuous improvement loop.

Business case

Building a defensible ROI
on your scope.

No generic assumptions. The business case is built on a measured pilot, with real data from your Maximo environment.
