Certus Digital’s partnership with IBM has had a monumental impact on New Zealand’s industrial landscape. The company’s extensive, tailored solutions have empowered organizations to better understand their asset lifecycle and improve the reliability, performance, and safety of their assets and people.
One of Certus Digital’s clients, a utility provider in New Zealand, needed a central view of its facilities, assets, and hazards as part of its Zero Harm model and to serve as a centralized source of information for Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) risks.
Understanding its client’s requirements, Certus Digital curated an HSE solution that leveraged Maximo’s standard pre-configuration to deliver the desired organizational results. With Certus Digital’s assistance, the HSE team operates a single application that reports all incidents, including work, personnel, safety, health, and environmental areas.
On a mission to continue revolutionizing the industry with its decades of industry and consulting experience and strengthening its partnership with IBM, Certus Digital’s future plans entail developing a foundation that enables clients to utilize IBM Maximo for daily operations quickly and efficiently by deploying a fully operational asset management platform, accelerating expandable essential business processes, maintaining a low-entry cost point, and ensuring complete scalability with access to the full Maximo Application Suite and Touchstone Platform.
