How work will move

The change, in one picture.

Same work, same people. What changes is the path it travels.

Work comes from

Everywhere

Any Maximo user Admin and NRC GIS and BYDA Billing Scheduled PMs
Straight to

Field Services

Issued direct with limited prioritisation or planning. Crews work it out on site.

Afterwards

Records vary

Close-out quality is inconsistent, so asset history has gaps and reporting shows what is overdue rather than what is coming.

The problem  It works because people chase it. Compliance on critical assets is tracked manually, and planning happens in someone's head.
Step 1

Service Request

One front door for all non-emergency work, from any approved team.

Step 2

Asset Planning

Triage, priority, work pack, materials and schedule.

Step 3

Field Services

Work arrives ready, on a schedule crews can plan around.

Step 4

Close out

Labour, materials, comments and defects captured, then reviewed.

Step 5

Dashboards

Real data feeds the next round of planning.

Still flexible  Emergency work and genuine same day jobs still go straight to the field. They just get captured in Maximo afterwards.

Why it is worth it

What Clockwork delivers.

Work you can see

Every job initiated, tracked and closed in Maximo. Nothing sits in an inbox or a head.

Crews arrive ready

Materials, tools and documents sorted before the job is scheduled, so fewer wasted trips.

Asset history worth having

Records that stand up to regulatory reporting and support real renewal decisions.

Decisions from evidence

PM compliance, backlog and schedule performance visible to everyone, not just at year end.

The plan

Winding it up: four stages.

Each stage builds on the last, and teams get time to adjust before the next layer arrives.

Sep to Nov 2026

Discover

We talk to you, map how work happens today, and draft the new process. Monthly planning meetings start.

Dec 2026 to Feb 2027

Build foundations

Procedures approved, workflows tested, work packs applied to planned jobs, training delivered.

Mar to Aug 2027

Go live

Service Requests switch on for all work types. Dashboards start reporting. Issues get fixed as they surface.

Sep 2027 onwards

Business as usual

The new way is simply how we work. Program formally closes and improvement continues through normal governance.

What it means for you

Three things everyone should know.

How you ask for work changes

If you raise work today, you will raise a Service Request instead. Training comes before the switch, and you will be able to see what happened to your request.

You get more notice

Planned work is issued four to six weeks ahead with a rolling schedule, so you can plan your week rather than react to it.

Close-out matters more

What you record at the end of a job becomes the asset history everyone else relies on. Supervisors review it and Asset Planning audits it.

A short guide for each specific role is being written and will be issued before your team is affected.

Getting involved

This gets designed with you.

The process only works if it suits how the work actually happens, so we need the people who do it to tell us where the design is wrong.

01 · Stage 1

Engagement sessions

We walk through the changes with your team and ask what we have missed.

02 · Stage 1

Stakeholder survey

A short survey so people who cannot make a session still get a say.

03 · Ongoing

Feedback register

Everything raised is logged, reviewed and answered. Nothing disappears.

04 · Ongoing

Planning meetings

Monthly forum for workload, backlog, materials and schedule risks.

Questions, concerns, or something we have not thought of?

Ask early. It is much cheaper to change the design now than to work around it later. You can also raise it through your supervisor and it will reach the same place.
