The system was not fully synchronized with the new SAP platform, leading to the following challenges:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Outdated Spare Parts Information: <\/b>The client\u2019s CMMS system did not reflect up-to-date spare parts data in SAP, making it difficult for maintenance teams to access the correct parts for repairs and replacements.<\/li>\n<li><b>Missing Preventive Maintenance (PM) Tasks: <\/b>The critical PM tasks were not properly set up in SAP, leading to delays in maintenance scheduling, risk of equipment failure, and increased downtime.<\/li>\n<li><b>Lack of Experience and Resource Constraints: <\/b>The client\u2019s maintenance division was resource-constrained and lacked the necessary expertise to address these issues within the new SAP environment. They needed immediate support to assess and improve their current maintenance processes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>SOLUTION<\/b><\/p>\n<p>We deployed 10 Oxford resources to 10 different sites to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the client\u2019s existing PM processes and CMMS system, identifying gaps in data flow between SAP and CMMS, and issues with spare parts availability and maintenance scheduling. We focused on improving the client\u2019s PM scheduling within SAP by aligning PM tasks with operational requirements. This included customizing SAP\u2019s preventive maintenance plans to match the client\u2019s equipment and asset management needs.<\/p>\n<p><b>RESULT<\/b><\/p>\n<p>By addressing the challenges within the CMMS system and improving maintenance management through SAP, the client realized long-term cost savings through reduced downtime, increased asset longevity, and more efficient operations.<\/p>\n<p>If you are experiencing software integration challenges or looking to optimize system upgrades or operations to enhance PM tasks and lead to impactful cost savings, Oxford can help.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p><a style=\"display: inline-block; padding: 10px 20px; background-color: #ffd300; color: #000; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; border-radius: 4px; box-shadow: 0px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); transition: background-color 0.3s ease;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oxfordcorp.com\/contact\/?utm_source=Insights&amp;utm_medium=CTA_Click&amp;utm_campaign=CTA#i'm-looking-for-talent\">CONNECT WITH OXFORD \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Learn how effective SAP and CMMS integration provided a global food company with cost savings and enhanced maintenance operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":36704,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[],"category-tag":[],"class_list":["post-36609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-case-study"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
