What is Software Asset Management (SAM)? IT Service Management IT Asset Management Contracts Hardware Software Software Asset Management SW Cost Trends Labor Cost Trends HW 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
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 Only IBM delivers the four essential sets of integrated information required for effective Software Asset Management across all significant environments IBM Tivoli Asset Management for IT Contracts & Financials What does each software asset cost now and in the future? License Compliance Over Licensed? (Potential Savings)Under Licensed? (Compliance Risk) IBM Tivoli License Compliance Manager for z/OS IBM Tivoli License Compliance Manager License Use Software Use What software assets are in use? Inventory What software do I have? All four questions must be answered to align software spending with business goals PCs Servers System z
Value Realized By Effective SAM Compliance Risk Reduction • Software vendor license compliance audits • World Wide impact of Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 Software Cost Management • Identification and reduction of no and low use software • Efficient server consolidations • Optimize software and hardware capacity upgrades • Strong vendor contract negotiation leverage • Reduced software fees through competitive replacement • Improve operational performance and reduce maintenance costs • Invoice validation • Effective charge-back • Disaster recovery and business continuation Opportunity Creation • Software dollars can be redeployed to fund new software acquisitions and projects that return business value

Maximo 7 Preview Topics • Enhanced User Interface and Security Capabilities • Migration Manager • Linear Assets • Enhanced Process and Work Management
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
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
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 Manager: Maximo Configuration Capabilities • OMP Integration • Web Services Library • LIC • Configuration Import/Export • Logging • Properties • Application Designer • Domains • Sets • Cron Tasks • Communication Templates • Escalations • Enhanced Security • Enhanced Workflow • Database Configuration • Reports • Application Designer • Domains • Sets • Cron Tasks • Communication Templates • Escalations • Enhanced Security • Enhanced Workflow • Database Configuration • Enhanced Reports • Security • Workflow • Screen Designer • Database Configuration • Reports Maximo 5.2 Maximo 6.2.1 Maximo 7.1 Configuration applications in Maximo
Production Server 2 Production Server 3 Production Server 1 PROD DB PROD DB PROD DB Test Server Development Server DEV DB TEST DB Configuration Migration Process • Migration of Configurations between Maximo environments • Supports standard rollout environments: • DEV->TEST->PRODUCTION • Purpose: • Seed a new Maximo environment with all configurations and customizations
Manages Packages - containers for Maximo configuration information Package has a life-cycle: Define Create Distribute Deploy Migration Manager • Package can be “Snapshot” or “Delta” • Configuration Import/Export also provides: • Snapshot configuration/customization for support purposes (IBM support) • General purpose package-based export/import tool between Maximo environments • Packaged content delivery through OPAL • Maximo solutions and add-ons, including Industry Solutions • Tivoli Process Managers
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
Linear Assets Non linear Assets Linear Assets Mobile (fleet, vehicles) Roads Fixed Physical Assets (facilities) Pipelines (sewers, oil pipelines) Component-based Assets (aircraft, ship) Railway tracks Installed, maintained, replaced as a whole Preserved and restored in place, and in segments 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
WO 127 0 40 WO 128 25 50 Speed Limit 65 55 Lanes 4 3 Surface Pavement Concrete Exits Linear Assets Asset A 0 50
Linear Assets • Linear Attributes, Actions conditionally visible • Multiple, Configurable Linear Referencing Methods
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
Enhanced Process and Work Management • Multiple Assets, Locations on Work Orders, Tickets • Enhanced Swap capabilities • Automated Flow Control of WO Tasks – Status Management • New WO Task Application • Job Plan Enhancements • Nested Job Plans • Attached Documents at Job Plan Task level • Classification-based Attributes
Job Plans • Nested Job Plans – Reusable Processes and Procedures; Generates Work Order Hierarchies • Automated Flow Control – Controls Execution of Work; Automates Processes • Classification Based Attributes – Similar to Asset, Location and Item; Provides Job Specific Attributes to Job Plans and Work Orders
