IBM Maximo Application Suite 9 Asset and Work Management Course

Overview

IBM Maximo Application Suite 9 Asset and Work Management Course is a five-day intermediate course for maintenance, reliability, asset-management, planning, inventory, and system-support professionals, who leave with a Maximo Asset and Work Management Operating Guide. Participants work through assets, locations, job plans, work orders, preventive maintenance, materials, actuals, reporting, roles, and data quality. The course connects records into an operational workflow. Agile Leaders Training Center provides training in IBM Maximo 9 asset and work management.

Who Should Attend

• Teams responsible for asset records, hierarchies, locations, and lifecycle history
• Teams responsible for work requests, planning, scheduling, and execution
• Teams responsible for preventive maintenance and condition-based work
• Teams responsible for storerooms, materials, labor, and work actuals
• Teams responsible for user roles, reporting, support, and data quality

The course assumes participants support maintenance or asset processes and have access to a suitable practice environment; it leaves out installation, OpenShift deployment, customization code, certification preparation, and production changes.

Departments and Industries

The course supports Maximo Manage workflows across maintenance, facilities, utilities, transport, manufacturing, energy, public infrastructure, and service operations.

• Maintenance, reliability, and asset management
• Facilities, utilities, and infrastructure operations
• Work planning, scheduling, and supervision
• Materials, inventory, purchasing liaison, and stores
• System support, master data, reporting, and process improvement

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Analyze asset, location, classification, meter, and hierarchy records
• Build job plans and work orders with priorities and resources
• Apply preventive maintenance frequencies, routes, and generation options
• Use labor, materials, failures, and actuals to close work accurately
• Evaluate inventory, reporting, roles, and data-quality controls
• Build a Maximo Asset and Work Management Operating Guide

Practical Exercises

The course uses suggested activities to connect Maximo records into controlled maintenance workflows.

• Suggested activity: map assets, locations, classifications, meters, owners, and hierarchy relationships for a fictional site
• Suggested activity: create a job plan and work order with priorities, resources, safety links, assignment, and status controls
• Suggested activity: configure a preventive maintenance scenario using frequency, hierarchy, route, and generation choices
• Suggested activity: complete a work scenario with inventory, labor, failure, actuals, reporting, roles, and data-quality checks

FAQs

Who suits IBM Maximo 9 asset and work management training, and what does it assume?

The course suits maintenance, reliability, planning, supervision, inventory, asset-data, and system-support teams. It assumes familiarity with maintenance processes and access to a suitable Maximo practice environment, but not development or deployment expertise.

How does Maximo asset and work management training differ from Maximo administration training?

Asset and work management training focuses on operational records and workflows. Administration training focuses on environment management, security configuration, integrations, deployment, upgrades, and platform support.

How do preventive maintenance records create Maximo work orders?

Preventive maintenance records use status, frequency, dates or meters, job plans, hierarchies, routes, lead time, and generation options to determine which work orders are created and what information they inherit.

What data improves Maximo work-management reporting?

Reliable reporting depends on consistent assets, locations, classifications, statuses, priorities, planned resources, actual labor and materials, failure codes, downtime, completion details, meters, ownership, and timely record updates.

Conclusion

Participants take back a Maximo Asset and Work Management Operating Guide linking assets, locations, job plans, work orders, preventive maintenance, routes, materials, labor, failures, reports, roles, and data controls. It supports consistent handoffs across maintenance and support teams. It improves the completeness and usability of operational records.
