Features

Safety Measure List

The safety measure list allows you to classify standard objects in your enterprise asset management (EAM) system such as documents, permits, task lists, and production resources/tools as safety measures. In this way, you can create a list of safety-relevant objects from the total of all available objects. By assigning these safety-relevant objects in maintenance orders and task lists, you can make safety information transparently and consistently available during the planning and execution of safety-critical maintenance activities.

Safety Plan

The safety plan ensures that safety is transparently, consistently, and comprehensively considered during maintenance planning and execution. Those responsible for planning maintenance can use the safety plan to ensure that all the safety measures required to mitigate identified risks are assigned in maintenance orders and maintenance task lists. All the information contained in the safety plan is output as part of the job card so that the maintenance workers responsible for maintenance execution are aware of all safety issues and can ensure that they have taken all the required safety measures.

Risk Management System Integration

By integrating a risk management system such as SAP BusinessObjects Risk Management, you can connect the data in your EAM system (for example, technical objects, task lists, documents, and materials) with expertly-assessed risks and responses. In this way, maintenance planners have targeted information about potential risks and the appropriate responses available to them during planning.

Note Note

SAP BusinessObjects Risk Management is the default risk management system for integration and the framework for this integration is delivered as standard. However, it is possible to integrate other systems such as SAP Environment, Health and Safety Management or another third-party system.
