SAP Asset Analytics


Predictive Asset Analytics is the use of statistical modeling, data mining techniques, machine learning, and digital twin technologies to make predictions about future outcomes. A cloud deployment or cloud native solution is required to gain insights from sensor data and engineering simulations. With advances in data storage and loT sensor technology organizations can learn about each asset’s individual performance to predict asset productivity.

Improving reliability, performance, and safety are top priorities for organizations today. But organizations are also focusing on controlling costs and maximizing value from existing investments by supporting predictive maintenance and service. Predictive asset analytics is a solution for end-to-end asset management to provide early warning signals and give a diagnosis of equipment long before failure.

Key Capabilities of SAP Predictive Asset Insights include:

  • A 360 view of assets: A holistic view of the asset model with a single predictive tool increasing visibility into master, transactional, performance, and loT data sensor data.
  • Intuitive and scalable machine learning: Ability to detect abnormalities and predict failure without data scientist intervention, extending the intelligence of predictive maintenance by machine learning capabilities.
  • Advanced analytics: Gain insights into failure modes and leading indicators by benefiting from purpose-made analytical capabilities augmented with predictive asset intelligence.
  • Digital twin simulations: Apply ANSYS digital twin technology to analyze assets in action and over time in a live environment where engineering simulations support virtual sensors.
