Solve Enterprise Asset Management challenges for manufacturing
Costly assembly line disruptions impacting production?
Solution
Predictive maintenance helps you anticipate asset failure, so you can reduce downtime, maintain flow, and protect quality on high-volume production lines.
Struggling to maintain hygiene and continuous operations?
Solution
Automated sanitation checks, predictive maintenance, and Manufacturing Execution System (MES) integration ensure compliance, reduce contamination risk, and maintain consistent quality in continuous production environments.
Issues managing Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements?
Solution
Automate compliance workflows, calibration, and maintenance scheduling with documentation to improve traceability, reduce risk, and streamline regulated production processes.
Facing high maintenance costs, or low productivity of heavy equipment?
Solution
Asset performance analytics identify inefficiencies, restore optimal performance, extend equipment life, and reduce energy consumption and operating costs.
Struggling to balance precision, speed, and downtime?
Solution
IoT and MES integration with EAM enable real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance, ensuring high precision, faster production cycles, and uninterrupted operations in dynamic manufacturing environments.
Fragmented data preventing scalable performance improvement?
Solution
Standardized asset structures, failure codes, and maintenance data create a single source of truth—enabling consistent reliability, benchmarking, and performance improvements across plants and operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Cohesive customize Maximo for specific asset management and maintenance processes?
We tailor workflows, integrations, and dashboards to your environment, whether automotive, food and beverage, chemicals, or electronics, ensuring alignment with operational goals and compliance requirements. Our approach builds easy-to-maintain configurations in Maximo, not brittle customizations.
How long does Maximo implementation take in a manufacturing plant?
Maximo implementation timelines vary based on scope and complexity, typically ranging from a few weeks for core functionality to several months for full integration with ERP, Manufacturing Execution System (MES), and IoT systems. Cohesive uses phased rollouts to minimize disruption.
Will Maximo integrate with our existing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), MES, and SCADA systems?
Absolutely. Maximo is built for integration. Cohesive connects Maximo to ERPs for financials, MES for production scheduling, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) for real-time machine data, and IoT sensors, creating a unified digital ecosystem.
Do we need IoT sensors to start predictive maintenance in manufacturing?
IoT sensors unlock the full potential of predictive maintenance, but you can start with condition-based strategies using existing data. Cohesive helps you build a roadmap that evolves from preventive to predictive as your maturity grows.
How does advanced asset management like Maximo reduce unplanned downtime in manufacturing production lines?
Maximo does this by leveraging real-time data and predictive analytics to detect early signs of failure. Maintenance is scheduled proactively, preventing costly line stoppages and maintaining consistency throughput.
How does Maximo differ from other maintenance management systems some manufacturing companies use?
IBM Maximo goes beyond traditional Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) by offering predictive maintenance, IoT integration, AI-driven analytics, and built-in compliance workflows, designed for complex, asset-intensive manufacturing environments.
Can EAM lower Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) costs without risking stockouts?
Yes. Inventory optimization tools analyze usage patterns and set dynamic reorder points, reducing excess inventory while ensuring critical parts are always available.
How does Maximo support ISO, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and (Food and Drug Administration) FDA compliance?
Maximo automates compliance workflows, such as safety inspections, calibration schedules, and audit trails, helping you meet regulatory standards without manual tracking or compliance risk.
Is Cohesive’s approach suitable for multi-site or global manufacturing operations?
Yes. The solutions we build with Maximo scale across manufacturing plants and regions, enabling centralized governance with local flexibility, ensuring consistency while adapting to site-specific needs.
How do we train our teams to use Maximo effectively?
Cohesive delivers role-based training, hands-on workshops, and digital adoption programs so operators, planners, and maintenance teams can fully leverage Maximo’s capabilities.
