SAP for Maintenance Planners (Virtual Learning) (Sold Out)

Wednesday, November 20, 2024 8am to 4:30pm

If you are interested in registering for this course, contact Chelsea Miller (cmill184@utk.edu).

 

Many planners came up through the ranks with little training. If they were trained, they learned the basics but not how SAP relates to their job as Planners or their screen configurations. This training is designed explicitly for Planners who use SAP daily. We will review each aspect of the SAP “must-know” planning functions.

 

This training can also be very helpful for Managers who have Planners reporting to them. It will help them better understand what Planners should know regarding SAP and generate better-quality planned work packages.

 

Additionally, there are Supervisors, Leads, etc., who are unfortunately tasked with Planning as well. While this is not optimal, it is a great opportunity to assist them in becoming more efficient by ensuring their SAP skills are enhanced.

 

Pain Points: (Do these look familiar?)

 

  • Getting poor quality notifications
  • Not knowing how to plan what is included in the operations list
  • Lack of prework hides chronic failures and prevents proper Root Cause Failure analysis
  • Lack of Task Lists costs both time and effort due to repeated planning of jobs. This negates the continuous improvement process. Plans can’t be adjusted for timing, wrong materials, special tools, or support equipment being omitted
  • Lack of understanding of Operation Relationships affects the scheduling process and leads to lost wrench time and poor utilization of resources
  • Lack of quality setup of Material Masters causes problems with material procurement and proper material identification
  • Lack of proper prioritization of work
  • Not capturing order types prevents creation of KPI and reporting options
  • Lack of prework causes higher costs by not utilizing warranty work, and work done may cancel or void warranty
  • Poor Bill of Materials makes ordering materials more difficult and dramatically increases the time it takes to plan a job. It also makes the final plan less reliable. Bill of Materials is not properly reviewed and maintained as part of the continuous improvement process.
  • Functional Location Object Information Screen is not utilized properly causing extra work

 

Remote SAP Training (2 days)

  • Planners using SAP
  • Maintenance Team Leads or Supervisors that manage Planners
  • Maintenance Team Leads or Supervisors that have to plan work
