MxWork by A3J Group, LLC is a mobile application designed to capture information about work performed for IBM Maximo Asset Management. Most production equipment is static; maintenance crews travel to the equipment to perform necessary maintenance activities. Therefore, our maintenance crews have always been mobile technicians. However, until now they haven't had a simple, easy mobile work management solution that pairs with IBM Maximo Asset Management. That’s where MxWork comes in. Technicians can easily download the app onto their favorite device (phone or tablet) and log in to perform and record their work. Safety plans, work instructions, and other pertinent information about the work to be performed is all available at their fingertips. Technicians can record information such as labor time, work logs, and more all while standing in front of the equipment. Information also can be displayed and captured while the device is offline from connectivity. MxWork makes work management easy. All on the go, and all using the authorized IBM Maximo API's.

About

Read full description

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.
