Polling to see if anyone is buying and using Maximo for Service Providers out there?
If so I want to learn why you purchase.
We're being told we have to purchase because we do not own the Facilities that are being managed in Maximo.
Just curious if other Orgs have the same verbal license requirement.

Yes, that is the rule If you manage assets that you dont own.

Mohamed, Can you reference and point to that statement in a IBM Maximo licensing document?
Because I do not see anything with even a presumption of statement.
Here is what the Licensing documentation does say:
1. Licensee is a "Service Provider" if Licensee uses the Programs to provide services in support of or to benefit one or more of Licensee's Client(s). We do not have "clients".
2. "Client" means a third party that engages Licensee to provide services using the Program; a Client cannot, by more than 50%, own, be owned by, or be under common ownership with, Licensee. A Client can not acquire Authorized User or Limited Use User entitlements to the Program. " Is closest thing we have to a client is a "Subsidiary" which is within Common Ownership.
we use service provider. you need this if you are providing services to other party and billing them for those work done on your end. you should have detailed agreement and pricing for all the work that you will be doing from Maximo.
Thanks,
Basant
