SAP Intelligent Asset Management
Production systems should work smoothly like a clock with all processes running perfectly. However, if any component is damaged or stops working, the whole process will stop. To monitor and identify problems early, companies use SAP Intelligent Asset Management (SAP IAM) as a digital twin.
Structure of SAP Intelligent Asset Management
SAP Intelligent Asset Management is built on Asset Central Foundation. This includes documents, images, sizes and machine configurations. Such master data is known as a “digital twin” that perfectly replicates the product as delivered. SAP IAM’s three modules work together to complement each other.
SAP Asset Intelligence Network
SAP AIN provides a unique solution that focuses on the power of digital twin connectivity, fostering collaboration at the master data level through efficient stakeholder communication and seamless inter-process integration.
SAP Asset Strategy & Performance Management
This module is dedicated to the creation and meticulous modification of comprehensive maintenance plans. These plans are crafted using advanced risk evaluation tools and a thorough failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) process.
SAP Predictive Asset Insights
Formerly called SAP Predictive Maintenance and Service, this feature utilizes sensor data to enhance current master data. It enables conditional monitoring based on rules with automatic messaging.
Discovering SAP Intelligent Asset Management and Digital Twin with an Example Application.
A metal curing expert sought assistance from Zircoo in developing a digitalization plan to enhance transparency in production. The goal was to share SAP IAM data with clients to create an innovative sales model. To meet these needs, Zircoo IIoT Portal crafted tailor-made applications that enable employees to update data effortlessly and grant clients access to user-friendly interfaces where they can view machine status and other relevant details.
Benefits of SAP Intelligent Asset Management and a digital twin
Integration with existing SAP systems
Connect your vital production and operational processes seamlessly to existing ERP and SAP systems through our innovative technology. With this network in place, you can rest assured that automatic ordering of spare parts will be triggered when data indicates a breach in tolerance. Maintenance instructions will swiftly be sent to the service engineer on site for prompt resolution.
Consistent data
SAP Intelligent Asset Management is the ultimate solution for pooling all the relevant asset data sources together in one easily accessible place. This allows for seamless sharing of the digital twin between manufacturers while freeing up operators from the otherwise arduous task of data collection across numerous, often drastically varying formats.
Transparency
Using IIoT-based asset management systems, track the last time a part was maintained and who completed the maintenance. Thanks to the digital twin, identifying patterns can help improve product quality and discover new revenue models.

FAQ: What is SAP Intelligent Asset Management?
SAP Intelligent Asset Management (SAP IAM) helps maintain industrial production facilities through a digital twin created with master data stored in the Asset Central Foundation. It allows companies to track asset history and monitor machine states in real-time. Maintenance staff receive messages when tolerances are exceeded to prevent machine faults. SAP IAM enables collaboration between stakeholders at the master data level.
