The Job:

As an AppPoints/License Consultant, you will be responsible for assessing, modeling, and optimizing IBM Maximo Application Suite licensing for approximately 7,000 Maximo users. You will analyze user records, security groups, role and module access, actual system usage, service accounts, integrations, and planned MAS 9.2 capabilities to determine appropriate App Point classifications and licensing requirements. The role will produce the App Points Licensing Assessment and provide recommendations that support software procurement, license compliance, cost optimization, and the future MAS operating model. The proposal identifies the App Points assessment as a key Study activity used to confirm licensing needs and inform implementation planning.

Job Responsibilities:

• Inventory and analyze Maximo users, security groups, roles, module access, and account types
• Map users to the appropriate IBM MAS App Point classification based on approved access and usage
• Evaluate authorized-user and concurrent-user licensing scenarios
• Analyze peak concurrent usage during normal operations, planned outages, and other high-activity periods
• Review inactive, duplicate, shared, orphaned, and over-entitled accounts for potential optimization
• Assess service accounts, integration accounts, APIs, and boundary-system connections for potential licensing impacts
• Determine licensing implications of Maximo Manage, Mobile, Scheduler, Assistant, and other approved MAS applications
• Develop current-state and future-state App Point demand models
• Compare required App Points against existing contracts, entitlements, subscriptions, and planned purchases
• Identify tier-right-sizing, role redesign, access-management, and session-management opportunities
• Document assumptions, calculations, risks, and recommendations in an auditable licensing model
• Support IBM and vendor discussions, procurement planning, implementation estimates, and licensing decisions
• Coordinate with Maximo functional, Security/IAM, architecture, infrastructure, finance, procurement, and business teams
• Provide knowledge transfer and procedures for monitoring App Point consumption after Go-Live

Here's What You Need:

• Experience with IBM Maximo or MAS licensing, App Points, user classifications, and software entitlements
• Strong understanding of Maximo users, security groups, applications, modules, and access structures
• Experience analyzing large user populations and system-usage data
• Strong Excel-based data analysis, reconciliation, scenario modeling, and reporting skills
• Ability to interpret software contracts, entitlement documentation, and licensing terms
• Experience distinguishing human-user, service-account, integration, and nonproduction licensing impacts
• Strong analytical, documentation, and stakeholder-management capabilities
• Ability to explain complex licensing findings to business, technical, procurement, and leadership audiences

Would Be Nice To Have:

• Previous MAS App Point assessment or licensing-optimization experience
• Experience supporting IBM licensing reviews, renewals, or software procurement
• Familiarity with utility operations, outage-related usage patterns, SOX controls, or regulated environments
• Experience working with Maximo Mobile, Scheduler, Assistant, and enterprise integrations
