Benefits of SAP PM Implementation

The following benefits you can get from SAP PM Module.

1. Integration with Quality Control dept. by equipment’s calibration plan
2. Integration with Finance dept. by allotment and allocation of each PM activity cost (spent time, material, service) accurately to exact related receiving centers (production lines or official departments)
3. Integration with Finance dept. by allocation of budget to maintenance activities
4. Integration with Procurement dept. for purchasing plan of materials which are to be consumed in upcoming maintenance activities, instead of using safety stock which are assumed to be consumed for emergency activities
5. Integration with Procurement and Finance dept. by correlating external service procurement and maintenance activities (both data and accounting documents)
6. Integration with Production and Planning dept. for capacity planning of work centers based on maintenance activities downtime
7. Integration with Project Management dept. by assigning PM activities to WBS levels
8. Integration with Human Resource dept. for employee assignment to work centers and reporting based on each person’s actual work
9. Floating possibility of preventive maintenance cycles, especially when maintenance activities are postponed because of inability of stopping production lines for PM activities
10. Possibility of defining separate BOM from production BOM, in order to determine equipment related spare parts, while taking advantage of both BOMs
11. Online reporting of planned services based on different criteria (work centers, equipment categories, etc.)
12. Segregating outstanding PM activities from accomplished ones, based on equipment, defect reason, responsible person, activity type, etc.
13. Adjustability of predefined activity lists, based on equipment’s specific parameter (e.g. capacity, engine type)
14. Automatic update of maintenance plans based on modifications in related task lists
15. One-time definition of equipment’s activities regardless of different cycles, and have cycle-specific activities when it’s time to service
16. controlling correct work Start/Finish using systematic permits (LOTO technique) for high safety required processes
17. Possibility of performing on mobile devices (Equipment information review, repair requests processing, defect recording, order processing, measurement recording, time confirmation, material consumption recording), in addition to authorization restriction for field technicians
18. Time saving by shortening the process of complaints against warranty related materials/costs by means of condition definition for automatic processing of such complaints, in addition to connection with vendor/customer accounting documents
19. Breakdown Analysis using important PM indexes (Mean Time To Repair, Mean Time Between Repair)
20. Material consumption analysis for maintenance activities
