The practice of Asset Management - driving productive output from the equipment that asset intensive industries such as Utilities, Rail, Aerospace, Utilities, Mining, and Oil and Gas operate is vital for business operations, maximising ROI, reducing costs, and enhancing efficiency and safety.

SAP EAM delivers capability that can support the entire lifecycle of an organisation’s Assets from Projects and Plant Maintenance modules through to Asset Performance Analysis and Predictive Maintenance.

The Mastering SAP Connect EAM Community are at various points of their SAP and Asset Management maturity journey. Some have made leaps with SAP S/4HANA or using SAP BTP to unlock new capabilities and ways of working, while others are eager to realize improved core foundations for their SAP EAM systems, processes, and people.

The 2025 conference program will deliver practical case studies and insights that address these two scenarios: 

1. Getting core EAM foundations right, and
2. Adopting new and future technologies and mindsets - as the Mastering SAP EAM Community look and plan towards their 2025 needs and beyond.
