Introduction to Plant Maintenance

What?

Planning, processing and documenting of repair tasks for corporate operation and production resources.

Why?

To maintain the various resources of plants in order to ensure the smooth and efficient working.


Activities under Plant Maintenance :

• Inspection– All measures which establish the actual condition of a technical system

• Preventive maintenance – All measures which maintain the ideal condition of a technical system

• Repair / Breakdown Maintenance– All measures which restore the ideal condition of a technical system

• Maintenance Projects– All Measures required to make modifications or add to existing

technical system


Planning Organization Structuring

• Centralized Maintenance Planning – The company has several maintenance plants, however, only one plant

in which maintenance planning is performed.

• Decentralized Maintenance Planning – The company comprises several maintenance plants. Each plant

performs its own maintenance planning.

• Partially Centralized Maintenance Planning – The company comprises several maintenance plants. Some of the

maintenance plants perform their own maintenance planning, others do centrally.


Structuring

• Maintenance Plant– The maintenance plant for a technical object is the plant at which it is

installed

– E.g. Clarification plant C1 is located in plant 0001. Plant 0001 is therefore the maintenance plant for the clarification plant C1.

• Maintenance Planning Plant– The maintenance planning plant for a technical object is the plant in

which the maintenance tasks for the object are planned and prepared .

– E.g. The maintenance plant for the clarification plant C1 is plant 0001. Plant 0001 does not perform its own maintenance planning. It is assigned to plant 0002 . The maintenance planning plant for the clarification plant C1 is therefore plant 0002.

Functional location

Is a multi-level hierarchical breakdown structure of machinery. Individual equipments can be installed within this hierarchy.

Provides a context for executing and recording maintenance tasks.

Provides a framework to monitor and track costs.

Provides a framework to monitor and track location of equipments.



Equipment

• Equipment is a uniquely identifiable physical machine, upon which work can be carried out and about which costs and history can be recorded.

• More than one piece of equipment can be installed at a functional location.

Equipment should be created if:• Individual data is to be managed for the object (for example, year of

construction, warranty period, usage sites).• A record of the maintenance tasks performed for the object must be kept (e.g.

for insurance or legal inspection purposes).• Technical data on the object is to be collected and evaluated over a long

period of time.• The costs of maintenance tasks are to be monitored for the object.• Records of usage times at functional locations are required for the object.• Documents and BOM follow an equipment irrespective of installation location.

Technical object Functional location Equipment

This is relatively stable, may not be changed in years

This is laid into a certain position and it can be changed more often

Example Turbine Motor

Oil pump

Shaft



Equipment design

If the object at a functional location will never move physically, such as a storage tank, it is not necessary to set up an equipment record. Any work can be raised against the related functional location.

Determine movable and non-movable machines to see whether an equipment needs to be created or not.

Equipment can be installed on or dismantled from either a superior equipment or a functional location.

Equipment needs to be installed on the correct functional location during conversion.



Bill of material

A maintenance Bill Of Material (BOM) is a structured list of the components (i.e. functional location or equipment) or an assembly (material).

The BOM contains object numbers of individual components together with their quantity and unit of measure. The components can be Stock or Non-Stock Spares or Assemblies, which in turn can be described using maintenance BOM’s.

Specifies only maintenance relevant components.

Maintenance BOM’s are primarily used for the following purposes:

Structure descriptionA maintenance BOM describes the structure of a technical object or material.

Using maintenance BOM you can specify exactly where maintenance tasks are to be performed on a Technical Object.

Assignment of spare partsA maintenance BOM is used in PM to assign spares for a technical object for

documenting and choosing materials.

Bill of material design

Use of generic BOMs (i.e. Material BOMs) rather then specific functional location or equipment BOMs.

Material BOM - A generic BOM is applicable to one or many equipments or functional locations. By using generic material BOMs, maintenance is simpler since there are less BOMs.

Spare Parts will be in SAP as part of the BOM.

Material need to be defined before the BOM can be built.



Document and links

Offers document references and an easy access to related documents for

functional locations,

equipments and

machine models (materials).

Access within master data, notifications and work orders.

Requires organized servers and folder structures



Material master

Maintenance relevant materials are for example:

spare parts

assemblies

common machines

All data of a material is integrated in one master record.

Integration also enables the master data to be used jointly by purchasing and other areas like inventory management and invoice verification.

In maintenance processing materials are used e.g. in ordering and reserving spare parts.

Description Example Method



Catalogues

Maintenance catalogues are groups of standardized codes used to report technical history for work that has been performed.

There are various types of catalogues that can be defined in SAP. Typical ones are:

Object part catalogue allow the user to specify the specific part of a piece of equipment or functional location that work is being requested or performed for.

Fault code catalogue allow the user to specify the type of damage that has been observed.

Cause code catalogue allow the user to specify the root cause.

Activity code catalogue allow the user to specify what activities were carried out to fulfill a work request or to document work that was carried out.



Catalogues

Technical history associated with the repair and maintenance of specified equipment provides a basis for monitoring plant and equipment integrity, such as:

Frequency of failure

Failure grouping and analysis

Impacts of maintenance strategies (planned Maintenance, corrective maintenance, run to failure)

Component reliability analysis

Support to report analysis

Standardized codes enable benchmarking.

Corrective Maintenance processCorrective Maintenance

process



Corrective maintenance process



Description of the process

The corrective maintenance planning process

Starts with creation of notification,

either a fault report

or a maintenance request,

ends with the creation of a maintenance work order,

includes several decision points whether to

create maintenance work order,

postpone to later or

cancel request.



Notification life cycle

Notification creation

Notification review

Postpone/cancel/

continuePut in process

Assign to order

Notification is created to report a fault or request for maintenance

Notification in the system can be reviewed and updated

When notifications are reviewed, a decision is made whether to continue with the notification immediately, to postpone it until later or to cancel it

When decision has been made to continue with the notification, it will be put in process.

Once the notification is put in process it can be assign to a work order

Complete notification

After the completion of the notification, it is no longer possible to change / update it.


Standard Maintenance Cycle – Data objects


Maintenance Order

• What is a Maintenance Order ?

It is a detailed planning of the maintenance task which has to be performed.

• Why Maintenance Order ?– Plan tasks in detail with regard to type, scope, dates and resources.

– Monitor the execution of tasks.

– Define rules for account assignment, settlement and budgets.

– Enter, assign and settle the costs which arise from tasks.


Information from the Maint. Order

• Location or Equipment needing the repair ( inherited from the Notification data).

• List of activities to be performed and estimated completion times.

• Maintenance resource(s) to perform the activities.

• Spares required for the repair.

• Cost of the repair jobs carried – Planned & Actual.

• Where the costs of the order would be settled.

Work order planning and scheduling

Starts after the maintenance work order has been created and finishes when the work order is scheduled to execution.

The process includes planning of material

stock material from the warehouse

non-stocked material to be purchased for the order

and planning of resources

own resources

external services to be purchased.

The scheduling part co-ordinates timing of work orders.



PM work order system status

System status

Automatically created

Shows actions taken or not taken

The work order can have several system statuses

Ex:

CRTD, order created

MANC, material availability not checked

PRC, precosted

PRT, work order printed

REL, work order released

PCNF, work order partially confirmed

TECO, work order technically completed.



External services

External services will be processed in two different ways:

Frequently used contractor with a long time contract

Processed using an internal work order with an external work center.

Sporadically used contractor

Processed using purchase requisition and material master.



Stock material process flow

PM work order release

Effects of order release:

Reservation effective, can be withdrawn

Papers can be printed

Confirmation possible

Goods movement possible




Work order execution

Starts when the work order has been released for execution,

ends when the work has been completed and the costs are settled,

includes

material issue,

execution of the work,

time reporting,

updating notification,

updating technical object and

cost settlement.



Technical order confirmation

Before the work order can be completed:

Time must be confirmed

Goods movement reported

Activity reports completed

0013456998Measurement

readings recorded



Technical completion

Effects of technical completion:

Limited ability to change order

Create settlement rule

Deletion flag for purchase requisitions

Close open reservations

Close open capacities



Reverse Technical completion

Effects of reverse technical completion:

Order becomes modifiable again

Status REL is set

Locations and account assignment data are recopied from the object

Open purchase requisitions are recompiled

Open reservations are recompiled

Open capacities are recompiled



Order cost

Estimated costs are entered at order creation

Planned cost are calculated at order

planning

Actual costs are calculated at material

issue and time confirmation

All costs can be viewed on work order

What is a task list

Describes a sequence of individual operations which have to be completed

Related to a functional location and equipment

Types of task list

General task lists are maintenance tasks lists - sequence of tasks defined and managed centrally and used for scheduling work on multiple equipments/sites

Object specific task lists are specific to functional locations or equipment

Measuring point

Are used to enter measurements and counter readings (quantitative operating data) for technical objects.

Measuring point is a physical and/or conceptual location at which a condition is described.

Accumulated totals can trigger a PM Notification or PM Order.

Typical situations of use are:Counter-based maintenance (preventive maintenance every 1000

production hours).

Condition-based maintenance (preventive maintenance when brake pad minimum thickness has been reached).

Condition of the object is needed to be documented at a particular point of time (e.g. legal, health and safety reasons).



Measuring point

Measurements and counter readings are represented in SAP as measurement documents.

Measurement and counter reading data can be entered into SAP e.g.:

Manually using SAP user interface.

Manually using browser and transferring it to SAP via Internet.

Semi-automatically using barcode reader and transferring it from external system to SAP via interface.

Automatically transferring it from external system to SAP via interface.


Preventive Maintenance processPreventive Maintenance Process




Normal PM preventive maintenance process

Starts with the creation of a maintenance strategy.

Ends with automatic generation of work orders.

Includes maintenance task lists, plan creation and maintenance plan scheduling.

Refurbishment processRefurbishment Process




Refurbishment

The refurbishment process starts with creation of a refurbishment work order for a material number and

ends with completion of the work order.

Planning and scheduling of the refurbishment work order follows the normal planning and scheduling process flow.

After the refurbishment work has been executed the refurbished material may be put to stock.

For refurbished equipment the status is changed.



Additional details

Refurbishment cases can be handled in different ways:

Equipment with normal PM work order, where equipment does not have SAP serial number. These are major machines.

Smaller machines and major components with refurbishment work order. These have normal material number with split valuation and possibly a serial number.

Smaller low value components with standing work order and zero stock value.

Before the equipment is refurbished, its status will be changed to waiting to be refurbished.
