SOLEX

What SOLEX does

Solex (legal name Soluciones Expertas S.A.) is a privately held Latin American technology consulting firm founded in 1994 and headquartered in Santiago, Chile, with additional operating entities in Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, and Mexico. The company specializes in enterprise asset management and digital workflow implementations, anchored by long-standing reseller and implementation partnerships with IBM (for Maximo and the Maximo Application Suite) and ServiceNow (for digital workflow and ITSM). Its core delivery model is multi-disciplinary enterprise consulting: configuration, custom development, integration with ERP, GIS, and SCADA systems, data migration, post-implementation support, and organizational change management aligned to ISO 55000 standards. Solex reports serving more than 200 enterprise clients across five Latin American countries with over 500 completed implementation projects since inception.

Solex monetizes through three primary streams: (1) professional services and consulting engagements (project-based, multi-year contracts); (2) software licensing support as a value-added reseller of IBM Maximo and ServiceNow licenses including migration from Maximo 7.6 to MAS 8; and (3) SaaS/PaaS deployments for hosted enterprise platforms. Pricing is quote-based with no public tiers. The portfolio includes proprietary or productized solutions such as the MAS Solex Migration Process (a migration methodology), TURNex (AI-powered shift/rostering management for facilities), and Expert Access Control, alongside data analytics offerings built on Tableau, Power BI, and Dataiku. Solex also organizes the ELUM (Encuentro Latinoamericano de Usuarios Maximo) conference, now in its 30th edition, which functions as the de facto IBM Maximo user community event for the region. As of April 28, 2026, Solex was acquired by Naviam, the world's largest IBM Maximo solution provider, marking Naviam's first Latin American presence while Solex continues to operate as a regional delivery subsidiary.

Direct peers

• Softtek: Softtek is a Mexico-based IT services firm with strong LatAm enterprise presence. It is one of the closest regional peers to Solex in terms of geographic footprint, enterprise customer base, and systems integration-led delivery model.
• Naviam: Naviam is the world's largest IBM Maximo solution provider and acquired Solex in April 2026 to establish its first LatAm presence. It is the most direct comparable: same IBM Maximo specialization, similar implementation-led services model, now parent of Solex and the benchmark against which Solex's LatAm performance will be measured.
• Globant: Globant is a LatAm-headquartered digital transformation and IT services firm with comparable size, regional brand strength, and enterprise customer base. While broader in scope, it competes with Solex for digital transformation and enterprise platform implementation mandates in the region.
• Intertec International: Intertec is a global IBM Maximo implementation partner with regional delivery in the Americas. It competes directly with Solex for enterprise EAM implementation and MAS migration work, particularly with utilities and asset-intensive customers.

It represents the large global SI path that competes with Solex on Maximo-led transformation deals across LatAm.

Broad incumbents

• Accenture: Accenture is the largest global systems integrator and a ServiceNow and IBM ecosystem partner. Its Industry X and enterprise transformation practices compete for the same multi-workstream digital transformation RFPs Solex targets across LatAm.
• IBM Consulting (IBM Global Services): IBM Consulting is the OEM's own services arm and Maximo's primary global delivery vehicle. It is a broad incumbent with overlapping capabilities on IBM Maximo, ServiceNow partnerships, and asset management consulting across enterprise customers.
• TCS (Tata Consultancy Services): TCS is a global SI with significant LatAm delivery presence and a long-standing IBM and ServiceNow partnership. It competes with Solex on enterprise IT and digital transformation mandates from large regional customers.
• Deloitte (Consulting): Deloitte's enterprise technology and transformation practice competes for asset management and ServiceNow implementation work, and is a major LatAm enterprise consulting player with overlapping service offerings.
• Hexagon EAM (formerly Infor EAM / EAM Solutions): Hexagon's Asset Lifecycle Intelligence division (formerly Infor EAM) is a direct competitor to IBM Maximo in the enterprise asset management market. Hexagon's regional partners compete with Solex for EAM RFPs in LatAm utilities, manufacturing, and infrastructure.
