Cohesive, a certified IBM Platinum Business Partner and part of Bentley Systems, has been appointed by DEME, a leading contractor in the offshore energy, environmental remediation, dredging, and marine infrastructure sectors, to support a key technology project designed to enhance management of its 100-strong fleet of specialist vessels.
The team of enterprise asset management specialists at Cohesive will work with DEME to implement IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) and de-customize its existing Maximo 7.6.1.3 system.
Optimizing performance
MAS is a single, integrated, asset management platform that uses artificial intelligence (AI), internet of things (IoT), and analytics to optimize performance and reduce operational downtime across the asset lifecycle.
The appointment marks the next step in Cohesive’s partnership with DEME. Since 2016, DEME has relied on Cohesive’s Data Replication (CDR) software to synchronise data across its various Maximo instances deployed on dispersed vessels.
“This upgrade will not only improve system performance but also streamline operations and reduce costs,” affirmed Pierre De Wet, Vice President, Cohesive.
The project reflects DEME’s commitment to embracing digital solutions and expertise that help drive operational excellence and ensure sustainable and resilient assets.
