Purpose:
This component contains the functions for Plant Maintenance.
Plant Maintenance comprises the following activities:
•Inspection
All measures which establish the actual condition of a technical system
•Preventive maintenance
All measures which maintain the ideal condition of a technical system
•Repair
All measures which restore the ideal condition of a technical system
•Other measures taken using the maintenance organization
Integration
Through integration with other modules (for example, Materials Management, Production, Sales and Distribution, Personnel Management, and Controlling) the data is always kept current and processes that are necessary for Plant Maintenance and Customer Service are automatically triggered in other areas (for example, a purchase requisition for non-stock material in the Materials Management/Purchasing area).
Plant Maintenance operates the overall maintenance business processes and functions. The Plant Maintenance module allows a maintenance organization to:
• Identify, document, and correct failures and degradations of any assets for which they have Responsibility.
• Plan and schedule activities to prevent or predict failures and keep assets and processes operating within design specifications.
Both
Corrective and Preventative maintenance processes exist in the Plant
Maintenance module:
Corrective maintenance refers to the activities conducted by the Maintenance Organization to repair equipment of all forms within their area of responsibility. Preventive maintenance is a discipline that uses processes and activities that focus on the prevention of failures or performance degradation before it occurs.
The following diagram illustrates the common process for both Corrective and Preventative Maintenance within the Plant Maintenance module:
Subcomponents of the SAP Plant Maintenance (SAP PM) Module:
• Management of Technical Objects - includes master data objects such as functional locations and equipment master records.
• Maintenance Processing - includes processing steps such as notifications and work orders.
• Preventative Maintenance - includes maintenance planning and work scheduling tasks.
• Plan and schedule activities to prevent or predict failures and keep assets and processes operating within design specifications.
