Overview
The Daily Briefing was my second project at IBM, built alongside Task Agents. My manager asked us to define the positioning, experience model and concept design for an AI-driven start to the day in Maximo. The brief warned against simply making a better dashboard.
The problem
Health scores, failure modes and anomaly alerts lived in separate applications. Users pieced their day together by hand, and we did not have usage data to measure how long this took.
How might we tell each person what matters today, and why, before they open a single app?
Business impact
We estimated that the briefing and task agents could save each user 55+ minutes a day, depending on the role. That adds up to 230+ working hours per user each year, or about $12.6K in value per user. The briefing replaces the morning spent orienting across apps, and gives organizations one view of what matters.
“Most interns come in to learn something after a summer and not really do much, but you guys actually created projects that will be implemented in the next update of Maximo.” — VP of Asset Lifecycle Management, IBM
