MaxIron Cloud · Premium managed Maximo platform

MAS environments as a service.

MaxIron Cloud delivers IBM Maximo Application Suite as a managed service: tenant-isolated MAS environments, pre-configured to IBM’s product guidance, integrated with your identity, network and enterprise systems, governed end-to-end. Behind every estate runs MaxIron’s productised operations platform — the same product family you can see on our products page, and the engine that makes this enterprise-grade. Premium tier-1 enterprise infrastructure. Provisioned in hours. Consumed like SaaS. Configured like enterprise.

Premium tier-1 platform

Engineered for the regulated enterprise, priced for SaaS.

MaxIron Cloud is not a thin Maximo SaaS layered on commodity hosting. It is a premium managed platform on tier-1 enterprise infrastructure, delivered with the discipline of a regulated SI and the consumption model of a product.

Infrastructure

Premium tier-1 enterprise

Resilient, multi-region enterprise data centres with documented certifications. Top-quartile performance and uptime, not commodity hosting.

Security

Tenant-isolated, internal-only operators

Single-tenant logical isolation, encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access, continuous evidence pack. Operated only by MaxIron staff — never subcontracted, never offshored.

Discipline

Change-controlled DevOps

Proper change control, version control and CI/CD across every environment. Audit-ready by design, regulator-friendly by default.

IBM alignment

IBM Maximo product guidance

Configured to IBM’s Maximo Application Suite product guidance. IBM Gold Partner, MAS reseller, full-lifecycle services.

How it works

Two layers. One service.

You consume MAS environments. We operate the productised platform behind them. The fact that parts of that platform are already public MaxIron products is the proof it’s real.

What you consume

MAS environments, delivered as a service.

  • • Tenant-isolated production, non-production and dev environments — in the jurisdiction you choose
  • • Pre-configured to IBM’s Maximo Application Suite product guidance on day one
  • • Integrated with your identity (SSO), network, ERP, finance, GIS and field systems
  • • Provisioned in hours, upgraded on a calendared release path
  • • SLA-backed availability, observable to you, evidence-pack ready for your auditor

Sign in. Use Maximo. The platform underneath is our problem.

What we operate

MaxIron’s productised operations platform.

  • • Senior Maximo engineers running every estate — never subcontracted, never offshored
  • • Automated provisioning, patching, backup, restore and incident response
  • • Change control, version control and CI/CD across every environment
  • • Live health, capacity and cost telemetry across every tenant
  • • Continuous tenant-isolated audit evidence on a single pane of glass

The customer-touchable surfaces of this platform — Cloud Manager, Sentinel, Diagnose, Autoheal, Change Control, Pipelines, Upgrade Factory — are already MaxIron products. The platform is real. It’s productised. It’s how we deliver MaxIron Cloud.

Most managed-Maximo offers are either thin SaaS with no real platform, or artisanal SI delivery where every estate is a snowflake. MaxIron Cloud is the only one where the customer consumes environments and the operator runs a productised platform — both built to enterprise grade.

Data residency

Where your data lives, you choose.

Pick the jurisdiction your operation and regulator require. MaxIron Cloud handles everything else — on premium tier-1, multi-region enterprise infrastructure that already carries the full enterprise certification stack (see below).

United Kingdom

UK data residency, UK-based engineering

European Union

EU data residency, GDPR-aligned operations

United States

US data residency, US working hours coverage

Compliance depth

Built on the most-certified infrastructure in the industry.

MaxIron Cloud inherits the full enterprise control catalogue from the premium tier-1 infrastructure underneath — the same catalogue used by the world’s most regulated operators. There is effectively no enterprise control framework your auditor asks about that this platform doesn’t already carry.

Inherited certifications

What the platform underneath already carries

ISO/IEC 27001ISO/IEC 27017ISO/IEC 27018SOC 1 Type IISOC 2 Type IISOC 3PCI DSSHIPAA-eligibleFedRAMP (US)NIST 800-53FIPS 140-2 / 140-3CSA STARIRAP (AU)C5 (DE)ENS (ES)TISAXNHS DSP Toolkit (UK)CIS Benchmarks

Specific certifications that apply depend on the residency jurisdiction you choose. Your auditor receives the full inheritance map; under NDA MaxIron also shares the substrate sub-processor list.

Most managed-Maximo providers run on commodity hosting and stop at a handful of certifications. MaxIron Cloud sits on an infrastructure substrate audited against more control frameworks than most regulated enterprises will ever need.

What you get

A managed Maximo platform that operations teams can trust.

Three outcomes that decide whether a managed MAS service is actually fit for an asset-intensive enterprise.

Speed

Provisioned in hours.

Non-production environments stand up in hours; production follows an agreed runbook with security and connectivity sign-off. Tenant-isolated, in the jurisdiction you choose. No platform team to build first.

People

Run by Maximo engineers, not a generic NOC.

24/7 monitoring, patching, backup, restore testing and incident response by people who know MAS behaviour under load. Direct access to engineers who understand your estate, not a ticket queue.

Governance

Audit-ready and governance-friendly.

Tenant boundaries, role-based access, change history and an evidence pack a regulator can read. Documented certifications. Built for utilities, transport, oil & gas, public sector and other regulated operators.

Maturity

Productised infrastructure is just the start.

On most Maximo programmes only the infrastructure is industrial. The Maximo configuration, the build, the release process and the upgrade path are still artisanal. We productised all of it.

Platform

The platform is productised.

MaxIron Cloud delivers MAS as a fully managed service on premium tier-1, multi-region enterprise infrastructure. One managed service, documented SLAs, documented certifications, top-quartile performance and uptime.

Configuration

Your Maximo configuration is productised.

Built on a pre-configured, version-controlled IBM-aligned baseline. Standard applications, workflows, security roles, domains, automation, start centres and reports arrive ready on day one. Project effort goes into what is genuinely specific to your operation.

Build

The build is productised.

Every Maximo and MAS estate is delivered with proper change control, version control and CI/CD. Environments are provisioned to standard. Promotion paths between non-production and production are governed and reproducible. No artisanal hand-edits, no post-it-note runbooks.

Run

The run is productised.

Tenant-aware operations, observable estates, automated routine work and SLA-backed incident response. One platform across every environment we operate.

Upgrade

The upgrade path is productised.

MAS upgrades are wave-planned and calendared, not run as bespoke projects every time. Move from Maximo 7.6 to MAS, or between MAS releases, on a known cadence with predictable cost.

All built to IBM’s Maximo Application Suite product guidance — supported, upgrade-friendly and audit-ready by design. None of the bespoke debt that compounds at every upgrade cycle.

The hybrid

Consumed like SaaS. Configured like enterprise.

The buyer choice that usually forces a compromise — speed and predictability, or depth and fit — is not a compromise on MaxIron Cloud.

Like SaaS

Speed and predictability, with no platform to build.

  • • Fully managed: you consume Maximo, we handle everything below it
  • • Fast environment provisioning, predictable monthly cost
  • • No platform team to build, no infrastructure to think about
  • • MAS reseller licensing handled in one place
  • • Upgrades on a calendared release path, not an artisanal project

Like enterprise

Depth where SaaS providers can’t go.

  • • Depth in Maximo configuration, sector knowledge and operating-model fit
  • • Integrations with SAP, Oracle EBS, ServiceNow, GIS, SCADA, finance and HR
  • • Data governance, change control and audit-ready evidence
  • • Regulator-friendly operating model for utilities, transport, oil & gas, public sector
  • • Senior-led implementation services on top, on the same productised platform

Productised Maximo providers usually run a thin platform with shallow configuration that breaks at enterprise scale. Traditional Maximo SIs have the depth but still deliver each estate as a snowflake. MaxIron Cloud is the only model that is industrial at every layer and built to IBM’s product guidance.

Who it’s for

Asset-intensive enterprises with audit obligations.

Heads of Asset Management, IT directors and EAM programme owners at utilities and energy networks, transport and airports, oil and gas, ports and maritime, manufacturing and the public sector.

Operations where downtime is visible, audit obligations are real, and the EAM platform has to be governable, integrated and upgrade-friendly for a decade or more. Not for organisations looking for a generic SaaS form-fill.

Engineered, not improvised

The same platform we run for our largest regulated clients.

MaxIron Cloud is the same platform we run for our largest regulated clients. Productised so any organisation can consume it; engineered so it stands up to the scrutiny we hold ourselves to. When the operating model needs more than a managed environment — integrations, data migration, MAS upgrade, custom workflow — our senior delivery team is on the same platform, on the same call. See how this looks for a real Maximo to MAS upgrade.

Frequently asked questions

What is MaxIron Cloud?
MaxIron Cloud is our fully managed IBM Maximo Application Suite platform. You consume Maximo as a service; MaxIron handles everything below the application — infrastructure, platform operations, patching, backup, monitoring, change control and the productised configuration baseline. It is consumed like SaaS, configured like enterprise.
How is MaxIron Cloud different from a traditional Maximo hosting contract?
A traditional hosting contract gives you compute and a managed operating system. MaxIron Cloud is end-to-end: a managed MAS platform on a pre-configured, IBM-aligned baseline, delivered with proper change control, version control and CI/CD, and run on observable operations. The infrastructure layer is one part of the service, not the whole of it.
How quickly can a MAS environment be provisioned?
Non-production environments are typically available in hours once commercial and access prerequisites are met. Production paths follow an agreed runbook including security sign-off and connectivity to your corporate network or identity provider.
Where is my data hosted on MaxIron Cloud?
You choose the jurisdiction your data resides in — United Kingdom, European Union or United States — across premium tier-1, multi-region enterprise infrastructure. That substrate already carries the full enterprise certification catalogue (ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, SOC 1/2/3, PCI DSS, FedRAMP where US-resident, HIPAA-eligible, NIST 800-53, FIPS 140-2/140-3, CSA STAR, IRAP, C5, ENS and more), which MaxIron Cloud inherits as a defence-in-depth foundation. The specific substrate vendor and architecture are operational and are treated as confidential under our security model; under NDA we share the sub-processor list and inheritance map.
How does MaxIron Cloud compare to a productised Maximo SaaS provider?
Productised Maximo SaaS providers usually run a thin platform with shallow configuration that breaks at enterprise scale. MaxIron Cloud productises every layer — the platform, the Maximo configuration baseline, the build and release process, the run, and the upgrade path — to IBM’s Maximo Application Suite product guidance. You get SaaS-style consumption with enterprise-grade depth in configuration, integrations, governance and audit-readiness.
Can senior-led services be added on top of MaxIron Cloud?
Yes. When the operating model needs more than a managed environment — integrations, data migration, MAS upgrade, custom workflow, mobile rollouts, sector-specific solutioning — our senior delivery team works on the same productised platform with the same change control and CI/CD. The depth is on top of the productisation, not instead of it.
