What does Plant Maintenance Data mean in SAP PM?

Plant Maintenance Data (SAP PM) refers to the information used to manage equipment, spare parts, and maintenance activities within the SAP Plant Maintenance (PM) module.

This data includes equipment master records, maintenance task lists, bills of material (BOM), work orders, and spare parts data. Accurate and structured plant maintenance data enables organisations to keep assets reliable, minimise unplanned downtime, and optimise maintenance costs.

Why Plant Maintenance Data is important

  1. Asset reliability – ensures accurate Critical Spare Parts Data is available for maintenance tasks.
  2. Cost control – reduces over-purchasing and supports MRO Procurement.
  3. Compliance – provides auditable records of equipment inspections and repairs.
  4. Integration – connects with Material Master and Bill of Materials (BOM) Data.
  5. Efficiency – supports accurate scheduling and work execution through ERP Data Quality.
