SAP provides solutions for the entire asset lifecycle. Based on SAP S/4HANA as the core element, many solutions have evolved to provide portfolio management capabilities, enable predictive maintenance or integrate with GIS systems.

Therefore, SAP works together closely with partners and customers to meet additional utilities-specific requirements. During the EAM track, we will look at some of the latest solutions and customer success stories to illustrate this collaboration of SAP with partners and customers, such as Energy Queensland, Netze Duisburg, and Wien Energie
