Smart Matcher

Operator can use this information during their maintenance processes.

Manufacturer provides the information on the model level. The operator in turn synchronizes installed base information from SAP Plant Maintenance (SAP PM) to SAP Asset Intelligence Network (SAP AIN). With this, operator owns a significant amount of equipment from SAP PM in SAP Asset Intelligence Network (SAP AIN). If the data quality of the equipment is sufficient enough, the smart matcher can help you link a lean equipment (equipment with no model assignment to it) to the respective model it belongs to.

The above is based on an algorithm that involves fuzzy search. In case of poor or incomplete data on equipment level, the smart matcher application provides a card view in which you can match recommended models to equipment. The recommendation is again based on the same algorithm. The output of the algorithm is a match factor between 0.75 (75%) and 1 (100%).
