Case Study: a largest power outage company improves vegetation management efficiency with Prometheus Group's Mobile for Maximo

Vegetation Management with Mobile Inspections and Work Orders for Maximo

A major power company in the southwestern United States faced the challenge of managing its vegetation inspection and trimming processes with inefficient paper-based systems. These methods caused significant delays in data entry into their IBM Maximo system and made it difficult for operations managers to track issues. To gain efficiency and save time and money, the company partnered with Prometheus Group to implement a mobile electronic solution.

Prometheus Group implemented its Prometheus Mobile for Maximo solution, which integrated with the company's existing GIS and Maximo systems on ruggedized tablets. This provided field crews with an easy-to-use mobile app for inspections and work orders that functioned even when offline. The solution resulted in significantly improved field personnel efficiency, an increased number of circuit inspections per year, and better cost management for resources, providing management with immediate, up-to-date data for review.
