The Problems We Fix

What MDaaS is

COSOL’s MDaaS creates, audits, fixes, and governs your master data - assets, materials, locations, vendors, and maintenance objects across SAP, Maximo, Ellipse, and related systems. You get a global team of asset specialists supported by the COSOL AI Assistant. They accelerate analysis and improve accuracy, giving you one clear view of data quality by site and system with actions you can approve.

Who is it for

For organisations running ERP or EAM systems where reliability can’t slip. It supports teams in Asset Management, Maintenance, Supply, IT, and Finance who depend on accurate data every day.

Especially valuable for:

Multi-site operations with different system maturity
Organisations without internal master data expertise
Teams short on time that need governance handled with minimal effort

Identifying the potential value of inventory optimisation

With MRO inventory values often reaching from fifty to hundreds of million dollars and growing year on year, organisations face many challenges managing their MRO inventory, including understanding the true value of their inventory and identifying the potential cost savings that can be achieved through efficient inventory management. In this article, we look at how organisations can identify the potential of inventory optimisation.

How it Works

Assess

See where reliability breaks down

AI-assisted health check across key objects (FLOCs, plans, items, task lists, measuring points). Benchmarked against COSOL standards and issue specs. You get a baseline report and heatmap ranked by risk and effort

Fix

We address the biggest risks first

We agree priorities in a short working session. COSOL experts prepare load sheets with proposed corrections. You approve, upload, and we verify results to close the loop

Govern

Keep quality reliable over time

Continuous monitoring against your rules and thresholds. Alerts flag new issues before they spread. Monthly reports track trend, root cause, and value delivered. Quarterly reviews refine standards and focus areas.

You get data you can trust - year in, year out - not a one-off cleanup.
