Main­tain­ing equip­ment inspec­tion and cor­rec­tive action is labor and time inten­sive. Most util­i­ties have sev­er­al dis­parate plat­forms where data resides in dis­con­nect­ed silos relat­ed to engi­neer­ing, work man­age­ment, GIS, and mobile field appli­ca­tions. It’s not unusu­al to find mul­ti­ple asset man­age­ment plat­forms at the same utility. 

With no con­sol­i­dat­ed process or plat­form to address these prob­lems, util­i­ties are forced to be reac­tive instead of proac­tive. SAP CII removes the com­plex­i­ty by seam­less­ly inte­grat­ing with SAP EAM (SAP S/4HANA) and Esri ArcGIS enter­prise (a GIS map­ping and spa­tial ana­lyt­ics plat­form). Cus­tomers can final­ly expe­ri­ence a tru­ly action­able, seam­less solu­tion, stream­lin­ing effi­cien­cies sur­round­ing EAM for all asset types sup­port­ing inven­to­ry, risk assess­ment, start-to-fin­ish inspec­tion, cor­rec­tive action, and new facil­i­ty instal­la­tion. With SAP CII, util­i­ties can improve infra­struc­ture resilien­cy and oper­a­tional effectiveness.

Key Take­aways

- Work man­age­ment sim­pli­fi­ca­tion of process for peo­ple, sched­ules, and assets

- Pre­dic­tive main­te­nance and pre­ven­ta­tive main­te­nance can be har­mo­nized on a sin­gle plat­form with a com­mon inter­face and tools

- Dash­boards can be action­able across all aspects of EAM, includ­ing plan­ning, sched­ul­ing, and execution
