Email from Qing Zhen dated 16 October 2025, regarding the opportunity in China
"MAS OnPrem customers count:
We have 8 MAS OnPrem customers (3 Mas V9.1, others are V8.x)
And more than 100 Maximo EAM customers still use Version 7.6"
Updating the comments here based on our discussion over teams.
Two key requirements to extend the AI service into China are:
Enable integration with third-party LLMs within the AI service, rather than being restricted to Watsonx.
Provide multi-language support in the Assistant.
As both of these are in the future plan - updating the status to "Planned for future release"
Hi Qing,
Could you please help me understand whether MAS SaaS is available in China? Also, is there any customer pipeline or interest from China for this AI service? Understanding this would help us better assess deployment feasibility and potential demand in that region.
