Always running. Always ready.
Asset management that plans, operates and optimizes without stopping.
Maxinst diagnoses your operation before recommending any technology. When the answer is IBM Maximo Application Suite, IBM's suite of applications for asset lifecycle management, we orchestrate: software licensing support, supply, deployment, integration, sustainment and continuous evolution of the solution with the client.

Today's scenario
Maintenance decisions made with fragmented data, scattered across systems that don't talk to each other. That's the scenario for most asset-intensive operations today.
The cost isn't just inefficiency: it's unplanned downtime, expensive outages and safety risk piling up while the team puts out fires instead of preventing the next one. A lot of that fire starts with a manual inspection that didn't catch the defect in time. Switching platforms without a diagnosis doesn't fix anything. It just renames the problem.
Prevent. Perform. Predict.
IBM Maximo Application Suite organizes the asset lifecycle into three layers (Plan, Operate, Optimize). Maxinst translates that into continuity practice:
AIP
Prevent.
Reduce risk before the incident. Investment planning by asset criticality (AIP): budget and attention where it actually matters.
EAM
Perform.
Maximum performance, every day. Maintenance, inventory and field work in a single operational record (EAM). Reliable data for whoever executes and whoever decides.
APM
Predict.
Anticipate the failure. AI and analytics monitor condition in real time and flag the next point of attention before the stoppage (APM).
The eyes of the operation
The operation sees before it fails.
Manual inspection has a physical limit: visual inspection error ranges between 20% and 30%, even with an experienced inspector. Maximo Visual Inspection trains AI models to recognize defects, cracks, misalignments and other visual anomalies. No data scientist required. A ready model in hours, not weeks.
Two scenarios covered by the same platform:
Industry 4.0
The camera stays fixed, watching what passes by it: a part, material or product on a production line or conveyor. Quality control, assembly verification, contaminant detection, with automatic stoppage when a deviation appears.
Asset inspection
The camera goes to the asset: infrastructure, equipment, transmission line, solar panel. Ideal for energy, oil and gas, civil infrastructure, sanitation and other industries.
The result doesn't stay isolated: it feeds the same EAM operational record and can automatically open a work order. See, decide, act — without anyone copying data from one screen to another.
Having EAM, APM and computer vision interconnected on a single platform is a genuine differentiator of IBM Maximo Application Suite. This isn't a comparison with a competitor; it's a feature of the IBM product itself. Maxinst makes sure that capability is actually used, not just licensed.
What the suite delivers
A single platform, with built-in AI
A single platform, with AI built in from day one. No separate tool, no custom development needed to start extracting insights.
Pre-configured solutions
Pre-configured solutions by industry (energy, oil and gas, manufacturing, transportation, civil infrastructure, public sector, among others) and by asset class (real estate and facilities, IT, renewable energy, etc.).
Native computer vision
MVI Edge for scale, with any IP, thermal or drone camera; Maximo Mobile for field inspection; point-and-click to create a model with no code.
Closed loop
A closed loop between planning, execution and performance. Operational data becomes an investment decision, not a lost line in a spreadsheet.

Why Maxinst
A live system isn't the finish line, it's the starting point. Maxinst follows the application's entire lifecycle: deployment, integration, sustainment and evolution, with continuous SLA and a technical team close by as the operation grows.
The expertise goes beyond the application. Maxinst masters the entire infrastructure that sustains Maximo (operating system, middleware, containers, database), with its own practice in Red Hat Enterprise Linux, OpenShift and Ansible, the environment where Maximo Application Suite runs natively. Most EAM consultancies stop at the application layer and treat infrastructure as someone else's problem. Maxinst sustains it end to end.
And it goes where few reach: computer vision. Besides orchestrating IBM Maximo Visual Inspection within the suite, Maxinst resells Axis Communications cameras and develops proprietary technology on top of that platform, via ACAP, embedding intelligence directly in the hardware. When the operation requires edge inference, without depending on a central server, Maxinst has already solved that problem. The two technologies can be combined, depending on the use case.
The Journey
Diagnosis and Consulting
We understand the operation, the asset portfolio and the business objective before talking about technology.
Deployment and Integration
We bring IBM Maximo Application Suite live, connected to what your operation already uses (ERP, supervisory systems, field sensors), with the infrastructure sustained by people who understand every layer.
Sustainment and Support
Continuous SLA, a technical team close by, evolving alongside the operation's growth.
FAQ
What is IBM Maximo Application Suite?
A single asset lifecycle management suite. It brings together investment planning (AIP), maintenance execution (EAM), performance and failure prediction (APM) and computer vision (Visual Inspection), all integrated on one platform, with native AI from day one.
Why hire Maxinst to deploy Maximo Application Suite?
Because bringing the system live is just the beginning. Maxinst follows the solution's entire lifecycle (deployment, integration, sustainment and evolution), and also masters the infrastructure that sustains Maximo (Red Hat Enterprise Linux, OpenShift, Ansible) and the computer vision layer that complements the suite.
How long does deployment take?
It varies with the scope and maturity of the operation. The initial diagnosis defines the deployment plan and the real timeline, with no generic promise of a deadline before understanding the client's environment.
Does Maximo Application Suite integrate with the systems I already use?
Yes. The suite connects to ERP, supervisory systems and field sensors. Maxinst handles that integration as part of the deployment.
Do I need to replace my infrastructure to use Maximo?
Not necessarily. Maximo Application Suite runs natively on Red Hat OpenShift, and Maxinst evaluates together with the client which infrastructure path makes the most sense for the case.
What is Maximo Visual Inspection? Do I need to purchase it separately?
It's the suite's own computer vision module, used both for fixed-asset inspection and quality control on the production line. There are countless possibilities for your operation. Activation depends on the module contracted, and Maxinst guides that decision during the diagnosis.
How does support work after deployment?
With a continuous SLA and Maxinst's own technical team monitoring the operation, including evolving the solution as the company grows.
Does Maxinst serve any specific industry?
Several. The suite offers solutions for various industry segments, such as energy, oil and gas, manufacturing, transportation, civil infrastructure, the public sector, among others. Maxinst adapts the deployment to the reality of each operation.
Continuity isn't luck. It's orchestration.
