CanMUG – Mission & Constitution

Canadian Maximo User Group

Mission

The mission of the CanMUG is to provide a forum in Canada to explore, share expertise, discuss theory and develop knowledge amongst peers. CanMUG is a national community of like-minded Maximo users and professionals engaged in helping each other find new and better ways to solve problems and achieve business goals. The user group was started in 2002 (operating as WCMUG) with three simple objectives:

• To help users create a network of Maximo users, peers and subject matter experts.
• To provide a forum to share ideas and discuss best practices.
• To bring education and training on Maximo and implementation strategies to Canada.
