SAP Visual Information for Plants by NRX (SAP VIP), offered in North America, enables organizations in asset-intensive industries such as oil and gas, chemical, mill products, and utilities to optimize maintenance and materials-management business processes, improve plant uptime, and maximize return on assets. The SAP VIP application is powered by the SAP NetWeaver platform.

With SAP VIP, you can maximize the functionality of SAP software for enterprise asset management (EAM). SAP VIP's portal-based interface to the SAP plant maintenance module in the SAP Service and Asset Management solution provides role-based delivery of relevant information and functionality to engineering, operations, maintenance, and supply chain personnel. By simplifying EAM usability and making the right information available to the right person at the right time, SAP VIP enables higher user adoption of EAM – and improved return on investment.

By implementing SAP VIP, you can:

• Improve the usability of plant maintenance and materials management features in SAP solutions
• Simplify and streamline maintenance processes, such as creating notifications, work orders, and work packages
• Increase management visibility into maintenance effectiveness through robust maintenance reporting capabilities

SAP VIP also offers out-of-the-box integration with Asset Data Management Engine (ACM), NRX's robust asset content management solution. ACM enables asset owners to quickly and cost effectively establish and maintain a solid foundation of accurate, complete, and up-to-date equipment and material information in visual, electronic form.
