Introduction to MAS and its Benefits to SCM
2026 Agenda
Stan Smith, Product Manager, IBM
MAS introduces many new benefits to Supply Chain Management. This session will cover some of the most significant, including:
1. Mobile Maximo enhancements, with much improved functionality, and now included at no extra charge.
2. Maximo Inventory Optimization integrated to Maximo and included in the MAS suite.
3. Artificial Intelligence integration and processes optimization.
4. Maximo Health and Maximo Predict are now part of the same suite, allowing customers to trigger a Purchase Requisition for a long-lead-time item based on a Predictive Model rather than waiting for an emergency breakdown.
Simplified Licensing - Flexible Consumption: With the new AppPoint model, SCM team members can move between applications (Inventory, Procurement, even Health) without needing separate "Authorized" or "Limited" licenses for every single module.
