link on theManage
,Health
orPredict
tile. To setup permissions in the next exercise you will go to Manage. - This displays the assets grid page with a table of assets and their health scores for the user's currently assigned site.
**Note if the user isn't assigned to a site they will not see any assets. **
Setup Health Asset Permissions in Manage
In order to allow users to edit source record
on Action
button on the Health asset details page you must first configure the Health application security groups in Manage using the steps below.
- Go to Manage Application.
- Choose the
Security group
application. - Search on the

Setup Default Health Asset Condition Scores
Maximo Health v9 includes the ability to automatically active Asset Condition scoring for all assets that don't belong to a score group. After you activate the default asset condition scores, any new asset you create will also use the out of the box default score group to calculate asset condition for Health Risk and Criticality. Asset that are already part of score group will be skipped.
Watch the video on Default Asset Condition Scores
Activate the Default Score
In this exercise you enable the Default Score
.
- After you Log into IBM Maximo for the first time you will be reminded to enable the
Default Score
. - Press the
Activate
Button to enable the Default Scores. - Make sure you have create assets and they have the required dependencies set. An Asset Priority, Work orders or Service Requests set against the asset. Asset installation date and asset expected life based on Manufacture.
- Optionally you can choose to
activate the scores later
. Go toSetting Group
andGroups
tab to find theDefault_Score
group to enable it. - Check the group to see if the default scores have been activated. You will see Health, Risk and Criticality calculated for all your assets.
Asset scores will begin to be calculated using the Default_Score
group. You can also verify if the scoring is working by
viewing assets using the Asset Table List
page. If the Health, Risk ad Criticality score don't apper it likely because
there data missing for it to be calculated. You can bulk update missing data for Installation Date in the Asset Table
List
page simply by clicking on the column and row asset value and entering the information in the pop up dialog.
You can also view the Asset Condition Scores for Health
, Risk
and Criticality
on the Asset Details
page.
Create an Asset
In this exercise you create an asset in IBM Maximo Manage. You will use this asset later to measure it's Meantime Between Failure and see how it's value performs versus other assets using a Chart.
In order for the Meantime Between Failure Score to be calculated you also are required also create an unscheduled emergency work order. Let's start by first creating the asset and then a work order.

page.
- Scroll through the pages to see what groups have already been created.
There are 2 ways to create asset condition scores in Maximo Health. The first way is using the Maximo Formula Engine.
The second way is use Watson Studio to customize the Jupyter notebook templates provided in Maximo Health or accelerators .
Each asset class has it's own notebook template. See the documentation
for the list of asset classes IBM provides. You can configure the Score Settings
using a text file with a .cfg
extension to specify how to calculate Asset Health, Risk and Criticality.
Alternatively, scoring methodologies can be created from scratch directly in the UI.

Meantime Between Failure
To calculate the count of how many assets are achieving or not achieving the meantime to failure requires that you specify threshold goal to achieve. For example what is the number of hours an asset needs to go to achieve the meantime of failure goal. Assets who have a meantime between failure less than the number of hours means they are failing earlier than required and therefore aren't meeting the meantime between failure. Meantime between failures is calculated using the amount of time an asset goes before it has an unscheduled work order. Where the work order is either a corrective maintenance or emergency maintenance. The meantime between failure is calculated by summing the total amount of time between installation and the first and subsequent unscheduled work order divided by the total number of unscheduled worker order occurrences.
Create Threshold on Charts Page
To create a meantime between failure threshold consider the group of assets that you are measuring performance for. Consider creating separate thresholds for a groups of similar expected performance assets within an asset class like pumps and other thresholds for assets that are part of a system and require similar performance considerations like an HVAC system.
For this exercise you will create a MTBF performance threshold for an asset class. You can use pumps that have a similar
asset class, type, manufacture and model. There are two ways to create Thresholds
. One is on the Asset Charts
page,
If you haven't previously created any Thresholds
. The other way to create them by going to the Score Settings
page.
- Navigate to the
Asset Charts
page. - Click
Create threshold
button. - Fill in the form values and click the
Save
button. - Select the
box
at the top of the page to select all of the assets on the table. - Select

.
Create Threshold on Score Settings Page
Create a Threshold
anytime by navigating to the Score Settings
After you create the threshold it will be made
available as an option on MTBF
chart on the Charts
page.
- Navigate to the

Add Required Data on Asset Details
To calculate an asset's meantime between failure (MTBF), the asset's installation date must be known. Assets that are unable to
display their MTBF value will show an i
icon in the MTBF column and asset row in Asset Table
Page or on the value card of
the Asset Details
Page. By clicking on the i
icon, a dialog will open where you can set the installation date. Suggested
values for the installation date are also provided.
- Navigate to an
Asset Details
Page - Click the an
i
icon on the MTBF value card. - Choose the installation date using the
Calendar
control inf the dialog. If you don't know the installation date consider using the suggested value of when the asset was first added to Maximo. - Click
save
to save the installation date. - The MTBF value card will be updated when the MTBF calculation is recalculated in the
crontask
.
Add Required Data on Asset Table
- Navigate to an
Asset Table
Page - Click the an
i
icon on the MTBF value card. - Choose the installation date using the

button to save the installation date. - The MTBF value card will be updated when the MTBF calculation is recalculated in the
crontask
. You will see a status message letting you know the value will be calculated.
Troubleshoot MTBF
If an asset's MTBF value doesn't appear in the Asset Details
page or Asset Table
page after you have entered and the asset's installation date
and the crontask
has run then check to see if there are any filters applied to the crontask
that remove your asset from
the list of assets to be calculated for MTBF.
- Navigate to the
crontask
in Manage. - Search on
MTBF
and click on theMTBF crontask
. - Review the
crontask parameters
to see if the value would descope your asset from being calculated. - Remove or correct any filters that my descope your asset from being included in the MTBF score calculation task.
and click the
