For asset-intensive enterprises, the core competitiveness lies in enterprise asset management, and EAM (Enterprise Asset Management) systems are one of the key tools. They serve as the technical platform for advanced equipment maintenance management concepts such as RCM (Reliability Centered Maintenance) and TPM (Total Productive Maintenance). By applying EAM systems, enterprises can significantly reduce downtime and increase production output without increasing maintenance costs.
This book introduces the complete SAPEAM system architecture, including theory, business processes, and system functions. Through case studies of international enterprises, it provides strong guidance for practical application. Readers can gain insights into the full process of building an enterprise equipment maintenance system: from organizational structure design and basic data (technical objects) management, to preventive planning, fault repair, and maintenance execution, to spare part management, work clearance management, cost management, and report analysis.
The book equips readers with fundamental system application knowledge and industry practical experience. It serves as both a theoretical and practical reference for enterprise EAM system implementation teams and as a training textbook for equipment management personnel in asset-intensive industries such as machinery, chemical, power, petroleum, and transportation.
