Chapter 3.
Project Planning
This chapter describes various parameters that should be considered in planning 
an implementation right from technical options in terms of database, application 
server and operating system to required skills. A Maximo Asset Management 
Essentials implementation is assumed to be simpler and less time consuming 
than an enterprise wide implementation. The underlying assumption in this 
chapter is a basic implementation with out of box components for middleware, 
database and so on. After reading this chapter, the implementation team should 
be able to create a high level project plan with ballpark effort and time estimates 
for a typical implementation.
We have not created an implementation plan which fits for each implementation 
since all of them are different. Each customer is unique and the requirement set 
of each customer differs. However, for the purpose of this chapter and to 
maintain simplicity as Essentials is not supposed to be as complex as a Maximo 
enterprise implementation, the following parameters have been taken into 
consideration:
��
Infrastructure Selected
– Operating System - Windows®
– Database - DB2®
– Application Server - WebSphere
��
No integration with other third party systems
��
Existing data sets for data migration
