Collaboration with asset manufacturers and service partners is often characterized by email ping-pong and outdated documents. This takes up valuable and results in errors. SAP Business Network Asset Collaboration (BNAC) breaks down these silos. It creates a centralized, connected platform where you share asset data with your entire ecosystem smartly and efficiently – for collaboration as equal partners.
The connected core for your asset ecosystem:
• Smart data foundation: Define a “single source of truth” for your assets. Share master data, digital twins, spare parts lists, and maintenance plans with your partners in standardized processes and ensure everyone is working with smart, up-to-date information.
• Efficient collaboration: Replace manual processes and unstructured communication with standardized workflows directly in the network. From the handover of new system data to joint incident analysis – collaboration is transparent, comprehensible, and sped up significantly.
• Connected onboarding and maintenance: Integrate new assets and devices seamlessly into your SAP systems by providing manufacturers with data directly from the network. Send maintenance requirements to external service providers and receive completion confirmations directly in the system.
How can you benefit from using SAP BNAC?
• Up to 75% faster handover of asset data from manufacturer to operator, which speeds up commissioning.
• Significant reduction of errors and risks in plant maintenance, because all parties involved have access to a single, connected, and correct database.
• Stronger, smart partnerships with OEMs and service providers thanks to transparent and efficient collaboration on a common platform.
