End of Year Processing Reminders for Maximo

In the Maximo Application Suite administrators can choose between using Network File Systems (NFS) to provide storage for attached documents using Kubernetes persistent volume framework or using Simple Storage Service (S3) cloud object storage for storing attachments. Both approaches have their advantages and Projetech found S3 as the best path forward for most clients.

GOMaximo was held in Houston, Texas, in early April, focusing on the shift from Maximo 7.6 to MAS as well as highlighting the importance of using Maximo to maintain HSE compliance for inspections in the gas and oil industries. Regulatory compliance is crucial, and with MAS, gas and oil industry providers can manage their assets and compliance efforts all in one place.

On April 12th, 2022, IBM announced the end of support for Maximo v7.6.1.x effective September 30th, 2025. This means no further updates or technical support will be provided. For users not ready to upgrade to the Maximo Application Suite, options include transitioning to MAS AppPoint licenses or obtaining extended support through Projetech’s MaaS solution or IBM’s Extended and Sustained Support, ensuring continued usage and support until a mandatory upgrade by 2027 or later.
