MxApprove by A3J Group, LLC is a mobile workflow inbox for IBM Maximo Asset Management. Users of IBM Maximo need to approve or reject various system records as they go through standard lifecycles. Examples include approval of Purchase Requisitions to support non-stock purchases for Work Order planning, revisions of Contracts and Purchase Orders, electronic approval of Invoices, revisions of Job Plans, etc. Many times, administrators of IBM Maximo utilize the system's electronic workflow capabilities to standardize and automate the lifecycle of these records. At times during these lifecycles, assignments are made to individuals or groups that require review and approval or rejection of the assignment. That's where MxApprove comes in. Standard functionality within IBM Maximo has users log into the web application on their desktop to access their Assignments Inbox. From there users review and act on those records. In the world of management today, who has time to constantly sit down at their desk and monitor their IBM Maximo inbox? MxApprove allows users to access their inbox, review the records that are assigned to them, and accept, reject, and reassign assignments. All on the go, and all using the authorized IBM Maximo API's.

Inspections is the latest App as part of our award-winning Mobile Informer Suite, allowing you to immediately conduct your inspections without regard for connectivity issues in the field. Mobile Informer delivers all of your Maximo Inspections functionality, and more, to the mobile device where it is clear and intuitive. Users never have to consider whether they are connected or not. All data is synchronized in the background whenever there is a connection. There is no change to the display or performance as the state changes. This means the inspector simply needs to do his or her work, without consideration for the technology. The powerful search capability, including the ability to scan barcodes, means the inspector can quickly find the right inspection for the right asset or location. Simply scan an asset to find all inspections that have been scheduled and assigned. If there is just one inspection it opens automatically, ready for the first question. Capture photographs and mark them up before uploading. Upload other file types as attachments, such as drawings or spreadsheets. Capture an on-screen signature from the inspector or from a customer and save it as part of the completed form.
