Built for Fanjul Corp (Florida Crystals)

Replace SAP for Maintenance Operations Replace SAP for Maintenance

Florida Crystals operates two sugar mills, a refinery, rice mill, and biomass power plant across 190,000 acres. Your SAP system manages financials and supply chain, but maintenance scheduling, asset tracking, and predictive maintenance live in spreadsheets and manual workflows—creating downtime, compliance gaps, and inefficiency across your critical equipment.

Fanjul Corp (Florida Crystals)'s Challenges

The SAP Maintenance Gap in Sugar Processing

Florida Crystals manages two sugar mills, a refinery, rice mill, and biomass power plant—each with hundreds of critical assets requiring coordinated maintenance. Your SAP system handles procurement and financials, but maintenance teams lack a dedicated platform to track equipment health, schedule preventive work, or respond to breakdowns in real time.

Mill Equipment Downtime

Your sugar mills run 24/7 during harvest season, but unplanned breakdowns of crushers, diffusers, and evaporators halt production and cost thousands per hour. SAP tracks work orders in finance modules, not real-time equipment status, leaving maintenance teams reactive instead of predictive.

  • ✓Real-time asset health monitoring across both mills and refinery
  • ✓Predictive maintenance alerts before critical equipment fails
  • ✓Mobile work order dispatch to technicians on the floor

Biomass Power Plant Reliability

Your biomass facility powers sugar operations and supplies green electricity to the grid—any outage impacts revenue and grid commitments. SAP maintenance modules lack the granular asset tracking and condition-based scheduling needed for continuous power generation equipment.

  • ✓Condition-based maintenance scheduling for boilers and turbines
  • ✓Automated compliance documentation for renewable energy certifications
  • ✓Predictive analytics to prevent unplanned power generation losses

Refinery & Rice Mill Asset Tracking

Your refinery and rice mill operate with hundreds of interdependent assets—pumps, motors, conveyors, packaging lines. SAP's asset module doesn't provide the visual, mobile-first interface your technicians need to locate parts, check maintenance history, or log repairs in real time.

  • ✓Centralized asset registry with QR code scanning and location tracking
  • ✓Complete maintenance history and spare parts inventory linked to each asset
  • ✓Mobile app for technicians to access asset data and update work status instantly

Compliance & Audit Readiness

Food safety, environmental, and equipment certifications require documented maintenance records. SAP spreads this data across modules and attachments, making audit prep manual, time-consuming, and error-prone—especially across your distributed operations.

  • ✓Automated compliance report generation for food safety and environmental audits
  • ✓Centralized documentation repository with audit trails and timestamps
  • ✓Pre-audit checklists that flag missing maintenance records before inspectors arrive

Preventive Maintenance Scheduling

Your mills and refinery require coordinated preventive maintenance on hundreds of assets—but SAP's PM module requires manual scheduling and lacks AI-driven optimization. Technicians juggle spreadsheets, email, and tribal knowledge instead of data-driven maintenance plans.

  • ✓AI-powered maintenance scheduling that optimizes for equipment criticality and downtime windows
  • ✓Automated reminders and work order generation based on run hours or calendar intervals
  • ✓Predictive insights that shift maintenance from calendar-based to condition-based

Cross-Plant Maintenance Coordination

With operations across Pahokee and multiple facilities, your maintenance teams lack visibility into equipment performance, spare parts availability, and technician workload across plants. SAP doesn't provide the unified operations dashboard sugar processors need.

  • ✓Unified dashboard showing asset health and maintenance status across all plants
  • ✓Spare parts inventory visibility and automated reorder triggers across facilities
  • ✓Technician workload balancing and cross-plant resource allocation
AI-Powered Maintenance

From Reactive SAP Maintenance to Predictive Operations

UpKeep replaces SAP's fragmented maintenance modules with an AI-powered CMMS purpose-built for asset-heavy operations like yours. Your mills, refinery, rice mill, and biomass plant get real-time equipment visibility, predictive failure alerts, and mobile-first workflows that keep technicians productive on the floor—not in spreadsheets. Integrate UpKeep with SAP for seamless financial handoffs while gaining the maintenance intelligence SAP was never designed to deliver.

1

Mobilize Your Maintenance Team

Deploy UpKeep's mobile app to your technicians across both mills, refinery, and rice mill. They instantly access asset data, work orders, and maintenance history—no more radio calls or paper forms. SAP data syncs automatically, so your finance team still sees labor costs and parts usage.

2

Automate Preventive Maintenance

Replace manual PM scheduling with UpKeep's AI engine. It learns your equipment patterns, suggests optimal maintenance windows, and auto-generates work orders—cutting admin time by 6+ hours per week while reducing unplanned downtime by 37%.

3

Predict Equipment Failures

UpKeep's predictive analytics monitor equipment health across your mills and power plant, alerting technicians before critical failures occur. Your biomass facility, crushers, and refinery equipment stay online longer, protecting revenue and grid commitments.

4

Achieve Autonomous Operations

With real-time asset visibility, predictive insights, and mobile workflows, your maintenance team shifts from firefighting to strategic planning. Compliance audits prep in 75% less time, spare parts inventory optimizes automatically, and your 2,000-person operation runs with maximum uptime and minimum waste.
