SAP Asset Analytics

Predictive Asset Analytics is the use of statistical modeling, data mining techniques, machine learning, and digital twin technologies to make predictions about future outcomes. A cloud deployment or cloud native solution is required to gain insights from sensor data and engineering simulations. With advances in data storage and loT sensor technology organizations can learn about each asset’s individual performance to predict asset productivity.

Improving reliability, performance, and safety are top priorities for organizations today. But organizations are also focusing on controlling costs and maximizing value from existing investments by supporting predictive maintenance and service. Predictive asset analytics is a solution for end-to-end asset management to provide early warning signals and give a diagnosis of equipment long before failure.

Key Capabilities of SAP Predictive Asset Insights include:

  • A 360 view of assets: A holistic view of the asset model with a single predictive tool increasing visibility into master, transactional, performance, and loT data sensor data.
  • Intuitive and scalable machine learning: Ability to detect abnormalities and predict failure without data scientist intervention, extending the intelligence of predictive maintenance by machine learning capabilities.
  • Advanced analytics: Gain insights into failure modes and leading indicators by benefiting from purpose-made analytical capabilities augmented with predictive asset intelligence.
  • Digital twin simulations: Apply ANSYS digital twin technology to analyze assets in action and over time in a live environment where engineering simulations support virtual sensors.

Key Considerations for SAPinsiders are:

  • Advanced Analytics and Performance Intelligence. In the recent state of the market for process automation, SAPinsiders indicated that intelligent automation and process intelligence are key capabilities they are planning to build in the next two years. This analyst insight explores some critical aspects to be aware of on your path to develop these capabilities.
  • Achieve Business Clarity with Process Intelligence. Process intelligence provides an understanding of where process deficiencies exist and where leverage opportunities reside. SAPinsider sat down with Shoeb Javed, Chief Strategy and Product Officer for software testing firm Worksoft Inc., to discuss the latest Achieve Business Clarity with Process Intelligence process intelligence trends.
  • Digital twins are on the Rise to Mitigate Risk. Companies are searching for greater efficiencies to improve operational efficiencies and be more resilient. In this analyst insight learn what digital twins are, how they work, how they have evolved, and benefits that they can bring to your organization. Optimization is where digital twins excel to test contingency plans and build resilience.

Digital Twins
Integrating Process and Physical Digital TwinsTerms like Asset management and asset analytics have primarily been associated with monitoring the condition of equipment used on shop floors and other critical infrastructures like energy and utility. While that is one critical role asset analytics can help play, it is the ability to leverage the data generated by assets across the shop floor, including people who probably are your most important asset. This capability of leveraging the data captured from the floor to replicate asset conditions and processes drives manufacturing digital twin offerings like SAP IoT, Azure Digital Twins, and AWS IoT TwinMaker. While we generally assign the term digital twins to these platforms, a comprehensive digital twin platform can be further broken down into a combination of a physical, digital twin, and process digital twin. And this is the reason why this topic helps tie our upcoming research reports, Process Automation in Supply Chain and Inventory Management and Optimization. In this article, we will explore what these two terms mean and why there is a need to integrate these across the supply chain.
Asset Management
Achieving Effective and Efficient Asset ManagementIn heavy asset intensive industries from manufacturing and processing facilities through to Rail, Aerospace, Utilities, Oil & Gas and Mining operations, the largest operational expense beyond the CAPEX of building the plant resides in maintaining the equipment required to do the job.
