Case Study: Austin Energy minimizes risk and streamlines Maximo implementation with PowerPlan

Austin Energy minimizes Maximo risk and manages 1,500 employees with PowerPlan

Austin Energy, a large public power utility, faced the challenge of meeting detailed operational cost and asset reporting requirements for the Texas Nodal Market while implementing new Maximo asset management software. They needed to bridge the gap between work management and financials without costly customizations or adding staff. To solve this, they implemented the PowerPlan solution suite alongside Maximo.

PowerPlan acted as an automated interpretive bridge between Maximo and the city's general ledger. This integration eliminated the need for Maximo customizations, reduced implementation time and cost, and automated asset accounting and operational cost allocation. The results included compliance with Texas Nodal Market requirements, avoiding millions in potential costs, managing granular cost data without increasing headcount, and generating new revenue through streamlined processes like damage claim billing.
