SAP EAM / Asset Reliability · Maintenance Modernization

Reliable production starts with
reliable maintenance execution.

Most organizations have maintenance tools. Few have a consistent maintenance operating model.

IndX helps asset-intensive manufacturers standardize maintenance execution, improve reliability, reduce unplanned downtime, and build a scalable SAP-based asset management foundation across sites.

The Myth to Bust

Asset management is not just a maintenance system project. It is an operational performance initiative that directly affects uptime, cost, inventory, production stability, and the ability to scale across sites.

Where the Gaps Are Costing You

Two structural problems that
cap your reliability ceiling.

Most asset-intensive organizations are not failing because their teams lack effort. They are failing because their maintenance operating model is not structured for consistency, visibility, or scale.

Inconsistent Maintenance Execution

Maintenance execution varies across sites with limited visibility into cost, effort, downtime, and performance. Weak planning and scheduling discipline drives unplanned downtime. Mobile, scheduling, and SAP PM processes are fragmented or underused. What works at one plant rarely transfers to another.

IndX Value

Start with a structured global asset reliability and maintenance maturity assessment. Define current-state challenges, requirements, quick wins, and a scalable roadmap that connects planning, scheduling, mobility, and SAP PM in one operating model.

Global Standardization Gap

Global organizations struggle to harmonize maintenance standards without disrupting operations. Asset management is often neglected or deprioritized during larger SAP or S/4 transformation programs. Corporate requirements and site-level operational realities pull in different directions with no framework to reconcile them.

IndX Value

Standardize maintenance execution using SAP PM, resource scheduling, and mobile maintenance. Align global standards with site-level operational reality and create the foundation for future predictive maintenance, APM, BTP, and clean-core modernization.

Start Here: Global Asset Reliability Assessment

Before you modernize, you need to
know where you actually stand.

The IndX Global Asset Reliability Assessment gives you a structured view of your maintenance maturity across sites. It identifies the gaps between where you are and where a scalable, reliable maintenance operating model requires you to be.

01

Maintenance Planning and Scheduling Maturity

Evaluate how work is planned, prioritized, and scheduled across sites. Identify where reactive work dominates and where preventive disciplines are not embedded in daily execution.

02

SAP PM and EAM Configuration Review

Assess how SAP Plant Maintenance is configured and used across your environment. Identify underused capabilities, data quality gaps, and misalignment between system setup and actual maintenance workflows.

03

Mobile and Scheduling Adoption

Review the current state of SAP Service and Asset Manager deployment, resource scheduling integration, and shop floor mobility. Identify barriers to adoption and execution consistency.

04

Reliability Strategy and KPI Visibility

Evaluate whether reliability strategies exist for critical assets, whether KPIs are tracked consistently, and whether maintenance performance data drives decisions at the plant and corporate level.

What you get from the assessment

A structured maturity scorecard across your sites. A clear view of the gaps between current state and a scalable maintenance operating model. Prioritized quick wins and a phased roadmap for SAP PM, scheduling, mobility, and reliability program development.

Who This Is Built For

The right conversation for
the right leader.

VP Operations and Plant Director

Accountable for production performance and site reliability. You need a maintenance model that reduces unplanned downtime and gives you consistent visibility across plants, not just the best-performing site.

Maintenance and Reliability Director

Responsible for maintenance strategy and execution quality. You know the operating model gaps better than anyone. You need an implementation partner who understands both the SAP system and the maintenance discipline required to make it work.

SAP EAM and PM Lead

Managing a SAP PM environment that is technically configured but operationally underused. You need structured process design, configuration alignment, and adoption support to close the gap between system capability and actual execution.

Global Maintenance and Excellence Leader

Driving harmonization across a multi-site portfolio. You need a methodology that can identify site-level gaps, define a global standard, and deploy a repeatable rollout model that does not require starting from scratch at every plant.

Operations Excellence Leader

Running continuous improvement programs that stall because maintenance execution data is unreliable. Better SAP PM adoption, consistent work order completion, and structured KPI reporting give your CI programs the data foundation they need to drive results.

IT Director and Digital Transformation Lead

Managing a SAP landscape that includes ECC or S/4HANA and looking to move asset management into a clean-core, BTP-enabled architecture. IndX bridges the gap between IT modernization requirements and the operational maintenance program that depends on it.

Why IndX
