8 Case Studies
A Highstep Technologies, Inc. Case Study
Con Edison, a major energy provider, faced the challenge of upgrading its legacy Maximo 7.6 system to the modern Maximo Application Suite (MAS) 8 before support ended. Key hurdles included managing over 15,000 users, adopting new OpenShift containerization technology, and ensuring security during the transition. The company partnered with Highstep Technologies to lead this complex, enterprise-wide modernization effort.
Highstep managed the entire project, including infrastructure setup, data migration, and training Con Edison's technical teams on MAS and OpenShift. The solution was delivered ahead of schedule, making Con Edison the first utility in North America to deploy an on-premises, disconnected MAS 8 implementation. Highstep's work resulted in immediate improvements in system performance, scalability, and security, and it directly influenced product enhancements to IBM's MAS platform.
