Overview of Assets

The Assets page in GE Digital APM contains the Asset Hierarchy and Asset Group that provide a dynamic way to interact with and view your assets.

Simply, the Asset Hierarchy displays records in the database and how they relate to one another. It provides a dynamic view of functional locations, equipment, and their associated analyses by navigating through the system based on the assets themselves.

Asset Groups are collections of assets, grouped together for analysis. An Asset Group can be created ad hoc in the Asset Group section or during the associated workflow. An Asset Group can be saved and reused for different types of analyses. For example, if you wanted to perform an ACA and an RBI on the same 20 pieces of equipment, you can create an Asset Group with those 20 equipment, and use the same group for each analysis.
