We've been using rotating assets here at Drax since we went live with Maximo on a small number of large, both physical and cost wise, assets that can be sent off site for repair brought back and fitted to another location.
It's been suggested that we may want to increase the amount of assets that are handled in this way by our procurement teams. Now we understand the theory and reasons why this should be a good idea, however we have experienced other scenarios which have caused problems in other areas, like meters being linked to the wrong asset causing PMs to generate incorrectly.
We're looking to chat to any fellow users that may have felt our pain and come up with solutions, or decided the pain did not outweigh the benefits and what solution you came up with.
Cheers
Rich
