SRO viewpoint

SRO Solutions is launching the complete digitisation package created to date for maritime firms using IBM’s Maximo (EAM) enterprise asset management software.

With the introduction of the IBM Maximo Application Suite and the EOS announcement for the legacy Maximo versions, many clients are looking for the lowest risk mechanism to take them from their current Maximo environment to the Maximo Application Suite; This is where the SRO Data Utility excels. 

Why do you need Maximo Mobile? The benefits of a mobile solution are clear - increase the quality and quantity of data uploaded to your system and decrease human error risk due to notes legibility. So why isn’t it more common?

Bill Wallace, Technical Director at SRO Solutions, has been named a 2021 IBM Champion to recognise his efforts to support IBM Maximo clients undergoing system upgrades and cloud migrations.

There are few things that keep the IT crowd awake at night – the prospect of a system upgrade is one of them. As Maximo 7.6.0.x end of support is approaching quickly it is worth considering your options.

In late 2020, IBM announced the end of support for all Maximo V7.6.0.x and compatible versions of products, industry solutions and add-ons that will take effect on September 30, 2021

Maintaining business continuity and keeping an entire organisation connected and in sync is a necessity for all firms. It is especially critical when staff are located around the world in remote offices. Achieving a suitable connectivity level can be difficult when overseas sites are in far-flung cities with poor infrastructure. Still, managing assets situated in an ice-covered wilderness subject to the driest, windiest and coldest conditions on earth takes the challenge to a whole new level.

Following a series of small and medium project wins in August, the project "Un-furlough" has started. SRO Solutions began transitioning most of our furloughed staff back to work.

Digital transformation is the ‘holy grail’ for today’s business but implementing a major IT project is not always straightforward. According to figures from the Project Management Institute (PMI), 14 per cent of IT projects fail, and a further 31 per cent do not meet their goals.
