Salt Lake City International Airport

Salt Lake City Department of Airport’s (“SLCDA” or “the Airport”) embarked on a multi-year effort to plan, design, procure, and implement an Enterprise Asset Management system (“EAMS”) with the ability to meet the future requirements of its airports. The primary objective was to implement the optimum software and related implementation services necessary to automate the Airports’ core processes on a single, integrated EAM platform in the most timely, effective, and cost-efficient manner practical.  IBM Maximo was selected as the platform to accomplish the following goals:

1. Enhance productivity of SLCDA staff resources
2. Maximize asset lifecycles
3. Minimize total cost of ownership of SLCDA assets

The JW Group (JWG) was responsible for defining the optimized business processes and supporting system requirements across a phased implementation approach:

• Phase 1: work order management (corrective, preventative, Part 139, project), mobile pilot, warehousing/inventory control, GIS integration, warranty tracking, custodial, lifecycle costing, and performance reporting.
• Phase 2: on-Line service requests (for SLCDA employees only), predictive work orders (including analytics), fleet assets, IT assets, warehousing/receiving/inventory control (both central and satellite warehouses/stocking locations), safety management, employee certification and training, and integration with other legacy systems (e.g., Building Automation, Kronos, BIMS, SCADA, OneSolution, etc.).

The JWG provided implementation support in areas including but not limited to program management, quality assurance, change control management, issue resolution, risk management, best practice identification, and user acceptance testing.

The project included full rollout to all Maintenance, Operations, GIS, and Inventory Control staff across the Salt Lake City International Airport and the department’s two General Aviation airports.
