DataSplice, LLC is a mobile software company headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado and offers mobile applications which extend enterprise systems, including packaged software for Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS), and Enterprise Asset Management (EAM). The software provides an interface from these systems to handhelds, smartphones, tablet_computers and mobile computers for field technicians, inventory specialists and inspectors. It may also be used on a desktop system as a unified/simplified interface for multiple systems.

DataSplice Architecture

The software offered is a mobile middleware, with an emphasis on IBM's Maximo EAM system. Its primary client base is focused on utilities, gas/oil, defense, aerospace and other markets which utilizes field service management systems which require tracking, asset management and regulatory accountability.

DataSplice does not use a proprietary software platform, but rather utilizes the Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) of Microsoft.NET framework’s ADO.NET, which allows for connectivity to different database systems such as MySQL and Oracle. The extensible system consists of three components, including a remote client (for handheld and/or desktop use), a server which communicates with the primary EAM, and an administration client for configuring the system. The product runs on the Microsoft Windows operating system
