How ETM.next Accelerates Your Company’s Progress
Recent research commissioned by the digital association Bitkom reveals that many German companies remain critical of their own digital transformation efforts. For the first time, a majority (53%) reported difficulties managing digitalisation—up from 48% in 2024. Notably, 64% of respondents consider their organisation a digitalisation laggard.
While the adoption of digital technologies is increasing, progress across the German economy remains slow. The study highlights key barriers to transformation:
To overcome these challenges, companies need robust, scalable solutions. BearingPoint’s ETM.next offers a comprehensive, end-to-end platform for fleet and equipment management, built on the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).
With ETM.next, you as a company - for example in the construction, energy and utilities or healthcare sectors - can bring together relevant data about your assets from various sources and thus gain a better overview. A digital planning board for resource management allows you to centrally control the use of your vehicles, machines or equipment and react flexibly to new developments.
This gain in overview and control also helps you with maintenance management, cost control and compliance with guidelines. Inspections, maintenance and repairs are taken into account on the digital planning board. You can plan ahead and deal with problems systematically. In addition, Asset Life Cycle Management provides full transparency of revenue and costs - perfect for making decisions to optimize expenditure. To ensure your compliance, reporting and audits, ETM.next provides you with the relevant data, documentation and evidence in a bundled format. You can also easily manage and document compliance with regulations and standards via a dedicated dashboard for safety and compliance.
ETM.next is available to you as a scalable SaaS solution (Software as a Service) in the cloud. It is therefore quick and easy to implement in your existing IT infrastructure. You and other employees can use the asset management software anytime and anywhere via a web portal and a mobile app. ETM.next also ensures consistent data protection. Whether fleet and equipment management, device management or tool management: all data is processed and stored according to requirements.
