MaxIron Upgrade Factory
If you have to upgrade five, ten, fifty Maximo estates to MAS, doing it as a bespoke project each time is not a strategy. MaxIron Upgrade Factory turns MAS upgrades into a calendared, industrial process — repeatable, planned in waves, executed with predictable cost and time per estate. Built for customers running Maximo at fleet scale.
What it does for you
- MAS upgrades planned and executed as waves on a calendar
- Predictable cost and time per estate, not bespoke pricing every time
- Standard tooling carries the routine work; senior people focus on the decisions
- Fleet-aware: customers with many Maximo estates get a coherent programme rather than a portfolio of projects
- Naturally pairs with customisation modernisation so the upgraded estates stay upgrade-friendly
- Ends the "we still have nine left" problem
Where it fits in your Maximo programme
Upgrade Factory is the industrial-scale form of Maximo to MAS upgrade. It is normally combined with customisation modernisation, database conversion where required, Blueprint on each upgraded estate, and Pipelines + DevForge for the engineering plumbing.

MaxIron Upgrade Factory — frequently asked questions
- Who is Upgrade Factory for?
- Customers running multiple Maximo estates that all need to move to MAS — typically five, ten or more. Doing each as a bespoke project does not scale; Upgrade Factory turns the upgrade into a repeatable, calendared process.
- How is this different from a regular Maximo to MAS upgrade?
- A regular upgrade is a project. Upgrade Factory is an industrial process: standard tooling, repeatable wave planning, predictable cost and time per estate. The first upgrade looks similar; the tenth looks completely different from doing it bespoke.
- What is the smallest scale where this makes sense?
- Five estates is the typical lower bound, although customers with fewer estates that face frequent change still benefit. Below that, our standard MAS upgrade engagement is usually the right shape.
- Will it work with heavy customisations?
- Yes. Upgrade Factory is designed for the real world. Customisation modernisation work usually runs alongside it so the upgraded estates are also upgrade-friendly going forward.
- Do we still get senior MaxIron involvement, or is it factory-only?
- Senior involvement on every wave. Industrialisation removes the wasted effort, not the expertise. Standard tooling carries the routine; senior people focus on the decisions that matter.
