InterPro’s software solutions bring the full functionality of IBM Maximo to a mobile app. Built exclusively for Maximo, they help O&M teams to do their jobs efficiently and effectively without the cost, complexity and service impacts of available alternatives.

EZMaxPlanner is the industry’s first mobile planning and scheduling solution. It enables Maximo scheduling teams to manage activities of any complexity and duration, including projects with sequencing dependencies, multi-party orchestration and defined milestones. In version 5.1, EZMaxPlanner incorporates new forecasting and ESRI map-based scheduling features that make it easier for managers to plan and sequence preventive maintenance (PM) activities, load balance PM assignments across available staff hours, assign jobs based on technician proximity, and generate an optimized route to minimize travel time between jobs.

EZMaxRequest is a mobile app that streamlines request management by enabling authorized community members to initiate a Maximo work request, upload pictures and communicate with service providers. In the 4.1 release, EZMaxRequest is now fully cloud-enabled, and offers socket-based real-time notifications to staff and requestors updating them on the status of work requests – improving communication both within maintenance teams and between maintenance and the communities it serves. Other improvements include tools to easily author custom Service Request forms, and mapping improvements.

InterPro Solutions Chief Executive Officer Bill Fahey said, “Over the past 18 months we invested heavily in the next generation of mobile products for Maximo, re-defining Maximo mobility by offering a suite of Maximo mobile products with unparalleled performance, interoperability and mobile functionality. The new EZMaxPlanner and EZMaxRequest releases again raise the bar for the next generation of mobile apps for Maximo,” said Bill Fahey, CEO of InterPro Solutions.
