Comparing rotating assets and repairable spares management approaches in Maximo

Maximo handles Repairable Spares through a “Rotating Assets” process and methodology, but operating using the tools and methodology is so complex and challenging, that many organizations have been using simpler workarounds and methods.  In this session we examine, compare and contrast the differences and examine the success that people have had with each.
