SAP cus­tomers work­ing in the enter­prise asset man­age­ment func­tion are charged with keep­ing their asset-heavy busi­ness­es oper­at­ing at peak effi­cien­cy. Still, they acknowl­edge that today’s tools and process­es have kept them in a reac­tive posi­tion, despite their aspi­ra­tions to move toward proac­tive or — bet­ter yet — pre­dic­tive efforts. We asked pro­fes­sion­als who work in the enter­prise asset man­age­ment func­tion across indus­tries to tell us what they see as the most sig­nif­i­cant trends and pres­sures they’re fac­ing in their field this year. We’ll dis­cuss what we heard about where they need the most sup­port, what prod­ucts they’re most inter­est­ed in, and what dri­ves their satisfaction.
 
You’ll discover:

• Why mobile tech­nolo­gies haven’t deliv­ered what they’ve promised yet
• What is a key trend and also a pres­sure hold­ing these pro­fes­sion­als back
• Who is respon­si­ble for pur­chas­ing and imple­ment­ing enter­prise asset man­age­ment technology
