AlphaOak will participate as a sponsor at the SAP for Asset and Service Management Conference 2026, one of the leading industry gatherings focused on enterprise asset management and field service operations.
Each year, the conference brings together utilities, SAP customers, and industry leaders. They gather to discuss how asset-intensive organizations can modernize operations while improving reliability and efficiency.
Today, utilities face increasing pressure. Aging infrastructure, extreme weather events, regulatory requirements, and rising energy demand are changing the industry. As a result, organizations must rethink how they manage assets, work execution, and enterprise systems.
Therefore, events like this play an important role. They allow leaders to share lessons learned, discuss real transformation programs, and explore practical strategies for the future.
Customer Session with PG&E
During the conference, Martin Stenzig, CEO of AlphaOak, will join the Pacific Gas and Electric Company for a customer session on March 25 at 12:00 PM.
They will discuss practical insights from one of the largest utility environments in North America.
The session will focus on several key topics:
• Aligning enterprise asset management with operational execution
• Managing complex transformation programs in large utilities
• Connecting planning, asset health, and field work management
• Lessons learned from major modernization initiatives
• Governance models that protect long-term program value
Importantly, the conversation will go beyond system implementation. Instead, it will focus on the organizational and architectural decisions that determine whether transformation programs succeed.
The Changing Role of Enterprise Asset Management
Enterprise asset management now plays a strategic role in modern utilities.
In the past, EAM systems mainly served as systems of record. Today, however, they act as operational backbones that connect planning, asset data, field execution, and financial accountability.
Meanwhile, many utilities continue modernizing their technology landscape with platforms such as SAP S/4HANA. As a result, organizations are focusing on several key capabilities:
• End-to-end visibility into work management
• Improved asset health and risk monitoring
• Integration between GIS and enterprise systems
• Strong data governance and data quality practices
• Scalable architectures that support long-term growth
Because of these shifts, enterprise asset management now sits at the center of operational transformation.
