What is Software Asset Management (SAM)?
Software Asset Management
SW Cost Trends
HW Cost Trends Labor Cost Trends
“Enterprises that begin an asset management program experience up to a
30% reduction in costs the first year.. and continue savings of 5-10% for the
next 5 years” – Gartner
IT Service Management
IT Asset Management
Why Is Software Asset Management So Hard?
• Lack of centralized cross-platform data repository
• software inventory
• product use activity
• contractual and financial information
• Rapid business change causes unexpected software
spending and inefficient software deployment
• Complexities of license metrics, terms & conditions,
and software deployment
• Software Asset Lifecycle management within
functional areas and departmental silos
• No clear knowledge of what software is installed,
how much it is being used and who is using it.
• Most software asset management practices lack the
maturity to drive maximum business value
IBM’s Unique Approach to Software Asset Management
All four questions must be
answered to align software
spending with business goals
What software do I have?
What software assets are in use?
What does each software asset
cost now and in the future?
Over Licensed?
(Potential Savings)Under Licensed?

Maximo 7 Preview Topics
Enhanced User Interface and Security Capabilities
Migration Manager
Linear Assets
Enhanced Process and Work Management
Maximo 7 Preview – Security and UI
Conditional, Dynamic Security
Data Restrictions
- Control Access Characteristics to Objects and Attributes based on Data and/or User
Group
- Characteristics include “Read Only” and “Hidden”
- Examples:
Tradesmen User Group cannot view WOs in “Waiting Approval” Status
Hide pay rate field on the Labor record based on user group; e.g.
Tradesman
Hide WO cost fields for Tradesmen, but visible for Supervisors
WOs in “Complete” Status are read-only for Tradesmen User Group, but not
for Planners
Asset records are read-only if the status is “Salvage”
Application Access
- Conditional Access to Applications
Read, Insert, Modify and Delete
- Conditional Access to Actions
E.g., Change Status, Add to New Parent, View Total Costs, etc.
Conditional Expression Manager
Persistent Definition and Re-use of Common Conditions
Conditional Access
Data Restrictions
Object and Attribute Level Restrictions
Can be made Read Only, Required or Hidden
Can be Conditionally Applied
Conditional UI
Control the UI based on Data and/or User Group
- Controls characteristics of UI Controls
E.g., Fields, Table Windows, Tabs, Buttons, Actions, etc.
- Characteristics include “Required”, “Read Only”, “Hidden”
Examples:
- Hide Asset Application Safety tab for IT Users
- Different labels, colors, etc on the same field for different groups of users; e.g.
“Labor” for US users and “Labour” for Canadian or UK users
Conditional UI

Maximo 7 Preview – Migration Manager
Migration Manager: Maximo Configuration Capabilities
Maximo releases provide increasing configuration capabilities
- Fewer customizations (coding)
Current migration process is cumbersome
- Manually executed database scripts, export/import - Prone to sequencing errors
- Seeding often incomplete (“I missed that configuration!”)

Migration Groups
Migration Groups define logical sets of Objects (and their relationships)
Also defined is the Order, which ensure that data being Migrated is appropriately sequenced
New Groups can be defined in addition to those delivered out of the box

Maximo 7 Preview - Linear Assets
Non linear Assets Linear Assets
Mobile (fleet, vehicles)
Fixed Physical Assets (facilities)
Component-based Assets (aircraft, ship)
Roads
Pipelines (sewers, oil pipelines) Railway tracks
A non Linear Asset occupies a
defined space and can be
tracked by its location or
modeled as part of a parent
child hierarchy
Linear Assets have linear
properties and often connect with
each other by their relationship
with the linear infrastructure itself
Installed, maintained, replaced as a
whole Preserved and restored in place, and in
segments

Features
Entities such as Mile Posts, Signs, Guardrails, Junctions can be managed as Features,
rather than having to create and manage Assets
Features can be Point (e.g., Mile Post, Junction) or Linear (e.g. Guardrails, Mow-able
Acreage, )

Relationships
Multiple Relationships can be identified between Assets
- Precedes and Succeeds (I 95 MD Precedes I 95 PA)
- Intersects, Passes Over, Passes Under
- Joins, Parallels
