    Asset management systems - supply and optimization by Znapz

     

    BPD Zenith is excited to announce a strategic partnership with ZNAPZ, a Netherlands-based specialist in asset management solutions. This collaboration unites two IBM Business Partners to better serve the growing needs of Maximo users facing the upcoming end of support for Maximo 7.6.1.X. With only 12 months remaining, many organisations are required to transition to IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS), a significant evolution in both technology and approach.

    By combining ZNAPZ’s local expertise and deep Maximo knowledge with BPD Zenith’s proven experience in delivering large-scale MAS implementations, including over 25 global MAS projects, this partnership offers businesses a robust and seamless migration path. Together, we are uniquely positioned to address the complexities of the MAS upgrade, delivering industry-leading solutions for clients, including the UK’s largest airport and world’s largest logistics company.
