Interloc Solutions Launches Informer EdgeSync for MAS to Deliver Upgrades on Your Timeline, with Zero Downtime

marketing@interlocsolutions.com (Interloc Solutions) — Sun, 29 Mar 2026 13:05:19 GMT

Seattle, WA March 30, 2026 - Interloc Solutions, a provider of innovative consulting services and mobile solutions, today announced the launch of Informer EdgeSync for MAS. This new breakthrough synchronization solution enables organizations to upgrade to MAS with Zero Downtime. Built on the proven Interloc Informer Server platform, EdgeSync eliminates the traditional barriers to MAS migration by keeping Maximo 7.6 running while organizations upgrade and fully validate their MAS environment.

EdgeSync synchronizes data between existing Maximo 7.6 environments and MAS at the Maximo Business Object (MBO) level, ensuring updates flow seamlessly between systems without expensive database mirroring tools or manual ETL processing. Users can continue operating in 7.6 while MAS is tested and validated—relieving pressure on cutover timing and enabling migration only when the new system is fully ready. The database-agnostic, profile-driven solution provides resilient store-and-forward pipelines for enterprise grade reliability. In addition to zero-downtime upgrades, EdgeSync provides real-time hot-standby system capability as part of a disaster recovery strategy.

“Our goal is simple: keep our customers online, efficient, and moving forward. Informer EdgeSync for MAS, along with our growing technology suite, is designed to remove complexity, eliminate downtime, and give organizations the real-time control they need to operate at their best,” says Mike Watson, CEO at Interloc solutions.

This news builds on Interloc’s Informer portfolio and extends the capabilities of Informer. Informer EdgeSync for MAS is available for on-premises, cloud, and hybrid deployments. EdgeSync is included at no additional cost when migrating to MAS within the Interloc Cloud.

Interloc Solutions is an IBM Platinum Business Partner and brings over 20 years of experience helping asset-intensive organizations modernize and optimize their enterprise asset management environments. We specialize in IBM Maximo and Maximo Application Suite (MAS), supporting upgrades, implementations, and long-term platform strategy.

King County’s Facilities Management Division (FMD) Upgrades to Maximo Application Suite (MAS) 9.01 with Interloc Solutions

Scott Peluso — Wed, 13 Aug 2025 18:36:34 GMT

SEATTLE, Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- King County's Facilities Management Division (FMD) officially went into production with version 9.0 of the IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) earlier this summer. This upgrade marks a major milestone in the County's commitment to modernizing asset management processes and leveraging advanced technology to better serve its customers.

Interloc Solutions partnered closely with FMD throughout the planning, configuration, testing, and implementation phases to ensure the GO LIVE transition was seamless and disruption to daily operations was minimal. The collaborative effort included extensive data validation, staff training, and a carefully coordinated cutover strategy to safeguard service continuity. In addition to upgrading to "MAS" Interloc's cloud services division migrated King County to Microsoft Azures cloud.

"This update is a significant improvement to our asset management process," said John Shepard, FMD Asset Manager. "FMD is taking advantage of cutting-edge technology that not many have access to yet. Being able to pioneer this update is a nod not only to our team's willingness to improve the way we do things, but also to how our partners view the importance of the work we do."

With MAS 9.01, FMD gains a more complete and real-time view of its asset portfolio. The new system delivers advanced tools for asset tracking, lifecycle management, and performance monitoring—capabilities that were not previously available. It also establishes a single, authoritative source of asset-related data, enabling more accurate reporting, streamlined auditing, and improved decision-making.

The successful launch positions FMD as a technology leader among public-sector facilities management organizations, setting the stage for continued innovation in asset management and service delivery.

MAS 9.01 is now live and ready for users to experience. To learn more, visit interlocsolutions.com or contact Scott Peluso for inquiries.

Interloc Solutions: Taking the Pen and Paper out of Maximo Asset Inspections

Scott Peluso — Tue, 12 May 2020 20:40:00 GMT

Today, Interloc Solutions announced the release of Mobile Informer Inspections for IBM Maximo, a new application available for iOS and Android platforms- becoming the first company to bring the full functionality of Maximo Inspections to offline mobile devices. A turn-key solution, the mobile Inspections application is tightly integrated with the IBM Maximo Inspections Work Center, completely replacing paper-based inspections. Whether performing an audit, assessment, or survey, inspections are still a manual process for many Maximo users, executed with a clipboard, paper, and pencil. The mobile Inspections application introduces true mobility into this process and gives the mobile workforce the ability to perform inspections even when in the field where they may not have any network connectivity. In the Inspections app, Users can view and manage inspections assigned to them. They can search assigned inspections by Asset, Location, or Work Order number, providing more efficiencies and streamlining asset inspections. Users can even create unscheduled inspections and have them stored directly into the Maximo system. Inspections remain a critical component in maintaining assets across the enterprise and coupled with the full power of the Maximo Work Management suite, Mobile Informer customers can significantly increase their ROI.

Key Benefits of Mobile Inspections and the Interloc Solution

The Mobile Informer platform is integrated as a Maximo Application requiring no additional middleware or hardware.
Mobile Informer Apps are native to the device, taking advantage of all native operating system and device capabilities
Fit for purpose with none of the limitations of hybrid apps such as limited design options, bloated “all-in-one” codebase, limited access to device features, and poor performance when offline.
All Mobile Informer apps are built on an “offline first” principle, ensuring that the entire app works when offline without compromise. No user intervention is needed, and automatic data synchronization occurs seamlessly and transparently.
Mobile Informer Inspections is an off-the-shelf app ready for immediate use, no customization required, just install and go.
Inspectors can receive their daily workload from their mobile device, reducing contact and maintaining safe social distancing.
Completely removes paper from the inspection process
Completion rates for inspection work orders are significantly increased with a corresponding increase in data quality.
No need for the inspector to return to the office for updates or to turn in the completed inspections. No requirement to transcribe paper inspection forms into Maximo or another system.
