3. So why is trust, compliance and visibility so
hard to achieve?
IBM Watson IoT / © 2018 IBM Corporation
Drift
–
Cause and effect of failures
is often separated by long
periods of time, and
situations change
imperceptibly. Without good
data its hard to notice
change.
Diversity
–
Processes are only as good
as adherence. People, skills
and approaches change
results from day-to-day
depending on business
model.
Decentralization
–
Accountability degrades the
further down the value chain.
Often, responsible parties
lack the time and resources
to satisfy SLA’s.
4. What is blockchain?
Blockchain is an immutable ledger for recording
transactions maintained between a distributed
network of mutually untrusting peers
Hyperledger Fabric
is a modular system for deploying and operating
permissioned blockchains

5. Blockchain explained
IBM Watson IoT / © 2018 IBM Corporation
Yesterday’s network…inefficient, expensive,
vulnerable, lack of transparency
Today and tomorrow’s network…consensus,
provenance, immutability, trust in a single source
of truth
6. Why Maximo and Blockchain?
Maximo is already where compliance is critical

7. Multiple parties are
often involved in the
maintenance and
repair process
Secure and share
evidence associated
with condition
Improve support warranty and insurance process
Ensure disposal in compliance with insurer,
manufacturer, and regulatory requirements
Applicable to both asset and infrastructure supply
chains
Use Case: Secure
maintenance, repair and
disposal
IBM Watson IoT / © 2018 IBM Corporation
8. Establishing the provenance of key asset
components can be challenging
Tracking location, interactions and current
possession across a lifetime is complex
Use Maximo with blockchain to validate asset
history and certification of components and services
Ensure that third party contractors have the required
qualifications to work on assets
Opportunities to improve the commissioning
process for new assets
IBM Watson IoT / © 2018 IBM Corporation
Use case: Asset and
contractor provenance
9. Outsourced maintenance work provides many
communication and coordination challenges
Issues of trust between stakeholders and liability
associated with incorrect or incomplete services
Using Maximo and blockchain in combination can
enhance data visibility, support more efficient work
processes and improve safety
IBM Watson IoT / © 2018 IBM Corporation
Use Case: Shared
maintenance of common
infrastructure
Service Providers share common infrastructure
components supporting transportation, aerospace,
communications
10. Many opportunities for new business processes in
remote monitoring of assets
Communications Service Providers are key part of
the network for device connectivity
Reduce asset maintenance costs and risk while
managing asset health - using IoT Connection
Services and Asset Health Insights
Corrective actions can be addressed using the
Maximo Network for Blockchain and Secure
maintenance, repair and disposal

24. What scenarios would a Maximo
customer benefit from blockchain?
IBM Watson IoT / © 2018 IBM Corporation
Your Maximo system
Applicability of
blockchain
All your asset transactions managed in Maximo Unlikely
All your asset transactions managed in Maximo but concerns around trust with some transactions Possible
Some asset transactions managed in Maximo others managed by third parties and interfaced to Maximo Possible
Some asset transactions managed in Maximo others managed by third parties and contractors who use
their own systems with no interface
Opportunity
Assets that move location and ownership throughout their lifecycle outside of a single Maximo system Opportunity
Assets where regulatory oversight is required from third parties Opportunity
Asset transactions across a business network of partners where there is a history of mistrust or a blame
culture
Opportunity
25. IoT blockchain enabled Supply Chain
Objective: Provide an IoT framework that enables IoT providers
to easily integrate business data with IoT events for complete
business transactions.

Status summary

Customer Description Status Pain point
US Dept of Veteran Affairs Asset assignment process POC approved and implementation
discussion underway
The business processes related to asset
assignment and repair involve a lot of paperwork,
and include many participants who don't interact
regularly with Maximo. There is a lack of trust in the
satisfactory completion of processes, which
contributes to delays and errors.
AT&T Infrastructure monitoring Joint Demo underway AT&T does not have a mechanism to extend their
IOT infrastructure services to multiple parties when
corrective action is required based on asset health.
Powergen Trinidad
+ Melbourne Water
+ Transpower
Outsourced repair work Requirements input, possible POC
(Powergen)
There is a lack of visibility and control over the
asset repair process for high value assets such as
turbine components. This causes delays and
increased cost.
Seadrill Marine certification Requirements input There is a lack of trust in the satisfactory
completion of processes and certification, which
contributes to delays and errors.
31. Maximo—Blockchain
patterns
Maximo will leverage common functional patterns that
exist across many applications and use those
patterns to support transactions on the Blockchain.
– Beta: the State Change pattern
– GA: other patterns being considered
– GL Transactions
– IoT Asset/Device Data
– Inventory Transactions
– Asset Moves
– Supply Chain

32. Blockchain
IBM and Maersk have
built a new global trade
digitization solution using
blockchain. The solution is
designed to help reduce
fraud and errors, reduce
the time products spend in
the transit and shipping
process, improve inventory
management and
ultimately reduce waste
and cost.
IBM and Maersk worked with
a number of trading partners,
logistics companies and
government authorities to
manage and track the paper
trail of tens of millions of
shipping containers across
the world by digitizing the
supply chain process. When
adopted at scale, the solution
has the potential to save the
industry billions of dollars.
