I wanted to take a moment to share an important update from IBM regarding the Maximo Application Suite (MAS) product lifecycle and upcoming support changes.
If you have any questions and are an Interloc client, you can open a Support case through the Interloc Support Portal. If you receive product support directly from IBM and have questions or concerns, I recommend opening a case with IBM Support.

Content
Effective April 30, 2026, IBM will transition IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) Releases 8.10 and 8.11 to IBM Extended Support. Clients are encouraged to upgrade to the latest available release of the program or obtain Extended Support to ensure continued service coverage.
Effective April 30, 2026, the support lifecycle will reach completion for IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) Releases 8.7, 8.8, and 8.9. Extended Support will not be offered for these releases.
For additional details, please refer to the official IBM Maximo Application Suite announcement regarding this transition, as well as the IBM Maximo Application Suite product lifecycle page for comprehensive support information.
Clients are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version or release of the program to ensure ongoing support. See our user documentation for information about Upgrading IBM Maximo Application Suite versions.
Reminder: When opening a case, select the IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS) version and not the Application version. For example, if you are using Maximo Manage 8.7, open the case for Maximo Application Suite 8.11.
Whether you're evaluating your next move or ready to upgrade, making the right decision now can prevent downtime and risk later.
