Maintenance Management
is giving special attention to each physical asset to keep it running at peak performance. By physically keeping equipment maintenance up to date, uptime and productivity are maximized. A computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) can be used primarily to manage the maintenance of equipment and machinery. Asset management will take a holistic view of the entire lifecycle, to analyze data for the work to be performed on that asset. This includes planning, procurement, operations, and the disposal of assets. This optimizes the quality and utilization of the assets to improve uptime, reduce operational costs, and mitigate risk.

SAP Maintenance Management is an SAP S/4HANA Cloud software that performs maintenance management by three main activities:
- Asset operations and planning: Monitor time sensitive work for maintenance and spare parts inventory.
- Maintenance scheduling. Track work status and build schedules through simulations for scope and workload.
- Maintenance execution. Complete planned or unplanned maintenance tasks more efficiently.
Industries can spend billions of dollars to install, operate, and maintain all types of assets. Digital technologies can offer tremendous opportunities for organizations to modernize their asset management operations. SAP Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) software allows you to maintain and service physical assets with real-time insights, the internet of things (loT), machine learning, mobility, and predictive analysis.
Key Capabilities for SAP Enterprise Asset Management include:
- Complete maintenance management, with demand processing, planning and mobile execution
- Smart maintenance scheduling with resource allocation for people, tools, and materials
- Real-time analytics and insight into maintenance costs, breakdown rates, and damages
- Asset performance monitoring with proactive issue detection and response
- Comprehensive environment, health, and safety (EHS) management

Maintenance Automation in SAP System EnvironmentsDec 16, 2021 — Effective maintenance practices are essential to help keep SAP systems running as they should. But when maintenance processes are ineffective, critical business applications can become unavailable, leading to disruption of business operations.
As organizations move SAP workloads to the cloud, they seek to be more agile and proactive in developing more straightforward solutions and in a more cost-effective way. What’s more, as multi-vendor environments become more prevalent, integration across SAP and non-SAP systems is an increasingly important objective.
Maintenance automation in SAP system environments can help fend off potential issues. For business leaders, reducing downtime, speeding up deployment, and enhancing security are the primary goals. However, when it comes to setting up and deploying end-to-end maintenance automation in SAP system environments, most decisions come from SAP architects and SAP Basis administrators.
In this Technology Insight, SAPinsider’s Vice President and Research Director Robert Holland sat down with Ricardo Garcia Cavero, Principal Portfolio Architect at Red Hat, to discuss end-to-end maintenance automation and strategies for maximizing maintenance operations in SAP system environments.
Read it to learn about:
- SAP architects and SAP Basis administrators can leverage strategies around Day 1 operations and Day 2 operations to help meet business and operational performance expectations while ensuring a healthy and functioning SAP system landscape over the long term.
- Gaining more control with infrastructure as code tied to a centralized platform for maintenance automation. Explore how it helps eliminate the time and money needed to configure physical hardware.
- Template modules, built on information gathered from organizations running SAP systems, that allow SAP customers to automate the maintenance of multiple systems straightforwardly.
