Alliander | Utilities | 5991 | $2.3B | Netherlands | SAP | SAP Enterprise Asset Management | Enterprise Asset Management | 2018 | n/a | In 2018, Alliander deployed SAP Enterprise Asset Management to underpin a condition based maintenance program for its power grid assets. The deployment was anchored in the Enterprise Asset Management category and targeted above ground electricity and gas assets across value streams including energy and heat distribution, grid construction and maintenance, and outage and maintenance management. The program aimed to improve asset reliability and reduce unplanned downtime while maintaining regulatory and customer uptime obligations. The implementation incorporated SAP Master Data Governance, enterprise asset management extension by Utopia software to establish a single source of accurate master data and enforce validation rules and standardized data models. SAP Enterprise Asset Management was used for maintenance work order management, while ClickSoftware ClickSchedule handled field service scheduling and dispatch. Technicians were mobilized with tablets and mobility software built on HANA/XSA/UI5 so work orders could be processed in the field and close the information loop back into the EAM system. Integrations were explicit and central to the architecture, with the Extension applied to above ground gas and electricity assets and inspections and integration among NRG GIS Smallworld, SAP EAM, and SAP MDG systems. The project inventory of primary applications included ERP, EAM, GIS, historian, and control systems, enabling asset location, inspection data, and operational histories to flow into the enterprise asset record. The integration of SAP EAM with NRG provided critical GIS asset location data for maintenance planning and execution. Data governance and process restructuring were core elements of the rollout, including freezing data models with periodic synchronized updates to keep GIS and SAP models aligned. The program pivoted from a waterfall IT centric approach to a more user driven agile development model to increase business and maintenance user participation and improve the user interface. Alliander also decoupled GIS asset registration from SAP work order management to reduce interdependencies and accelerate delivery. Outcomes documented by the program included pilot acceptance of the Extension and achievement of high quality asset data, automated registration using templates that replaced error prone manual entry, and traceability of data changes by who and when, including unstructured comments. The Extension reduced asset registration time in SAP from hours to a few minutes and provided the governance foundation for broader CBM and PdM processes. With SAP Enterprise Asset Management and the MDG extension in place, Alliander established a software foundation to proceed toward lower unplanned downtime and improved uptime with lower maintenance costs. | |
