Every maintenance organization strives for reliable assets, minimal downtime, safety, and cost visibility. But in reality, you often run into systems that are out of sync with the shop floor. SAP may contain work orders, but technicians don’t see them until the job is already done. Safety is still handled on paper, checklists go missing, and materials aren’t available when needed.
Asset Excellence means getting the most value out of your assets, while minimizing risks, costs, and disruptions. The key? Closing the gap between strategy and execution, without adding complexity.
With Ready4 Asset Management (R4AM), you simplify maintenance by making processes user-friendly, mobile, and connected to SAP. The mobile application allows technicians to create notifications and process work orders directly from the field, with photo capture and asset identification via barcode or QR code. Even when offline. As soon as the device reconnects, all data is automatically synchronized with SAP, eliminating duplicate entries, errors, and wasted time.
What does this look like in practice? Technicians can log incidents with root causes, post material usage, confirm work orders, and complete safety checklists — all within a single app. At the end of their shift, all information is instantly available in SAP. No paperwork. No extra screens.
R4AM doesn’t just simplify the day-to-day, it also embeds safety into every step. Digital checklists, LMRA (Last Minute Risk Assessments), and Lock Out, Tag Out, Try Out (LOTOTO) procedures can be completed in-app, including on-site digital signatures. All data is logged directly in SAP, making it traceable, auditable, and compliant. No paper forms, just secure and efficient workflows.
What makes R4AM particularly powerful is its flexibility. It runs seamlessly on both ECC and S/4HANA which makes it a future-proof solution. The transition to S/4HANA requires no reimplementation or additional effort for R4AM. Configuration, workflows, and user experience all remain intact. This means no double work, giving IT and the business the clarity and space they need to move forward with confidence.
With R4AM, Asset Excellence is no longer a long-term ambition, it becomes a tangible result. Real-time insights, simplified processes, mobile workflows, and better safety are available now. And because it’s SAP-native, you don’t need to wait for S/4HANA to get started.
Asset Excellence starts today — with the right tools, built for the real world of maintenance.
