About the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders

The Asset Strategy Management (ASM) and Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Templates Data Loaders serve the following purposes:

  • Provides functional equivalence with Meridium APM V3.x to enable existing or new Asset Strategies and Templates to be imported into the ASM module for further development, analysis, or implementation.

  • Provides customers with a more effective GE Digital APM experience because the loaded content will be searchable and usable within the various GE Digital APM modules.
  • Enables the user to upload Asset Strategies for storage and to create templates in ASM that can be applied to one or more assets as a repeatable process, or to upload existing Asset Templates that can be applied to assets.

Following the data load, you can access the imported data, which will contain details such as when it was uploaded, and by whom it was created. You can open the imported strategies and templates in ASM and start using them in your workflows.

About the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders Requirements

To use the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loader and the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Templates Data Loader, your organization must have completed fully the deployment of the Asset Strategy module. The Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders should only be used after the Asset Strategy module has been implemented and you have defined the appropriate Site References, Process Units (Functional Location records), and assets (Equipment records) for your organization.

Risk Mapping

The Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders rely on Risk Mapping families to ensure that fields on the ASM Strategy and related records are correctly populated with data, and that resulting risk values can be mapped to the Default Risk Matrix.

If you have added custom fields, you must ensure that mappings exist for those fields, or data may not be populated as expected following the data load.

Security Settings

The Security User performing the data load operation must be associated with either the MI Data Loader User or MI Data Loader Admin Security Role, and must also be associated with the MI ASM Analyst Security Group or a Security Role that is associated with this Security Group.

About the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders Data Models

The data for ASM strategies and templates is loaded from Excel workbooks, each containing multiple worksheets. The ASM Template worksheets include Templates, Actions, Risks, and Mitigations, and the ASM Strategy worksheets include Strategies, Actions, Risks, and Mitigations. These elements are highlighted with red boxes around the relevant functional areas from the two ASM data models shown below. Elements shown without a red border are data model elements that will not be loaded by the data loader.

Best Practices

When importing data using the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders, you must use the following best practices:

  • Do not try to create and update a component in the same Excel workbook.
  • Do not include anything in the Excel workbook that you do not want imported into the dataset. If you include fields that are blank, they will import into the database as blank fields. If you do not want a specific field imported because it would overwrite a value in an existing field, remove that column from the worksheet.

Load Sequence

The data loader jobs must load in a specific sequence in order to successfully populate fields, create records, and link them to the predecessor and/or successor records. This section documents the order of steps that you must perform for the strategy and template data loaders to work correctly.

Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loader

For all strategies, the strategy data loader will:

  • Create the ASM Strategy and link it to the defined asset through the Has Strategy relationship.
  • Create Actions: One or many that are linked to the Asset Strategy through the Has Actions relationship.
  • Create Risks: One or many that are linked to a mitigating Action through the Has Actions relationship.
  • Create Mitigations: One or many Mitigated Risk Assessments that are linked to one or more Risks through the Is Mitigated relationship.

Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Templates Data Loader

For all templates, the template data loader will:

  • Create the ASM Template without any defined asset.
  • Create Actions: One or many that are linked to the template through the Has Actions relationship.

  • Create Risks: One or many that are linked to a mitigating Action through the Has Actions relationship.
  • Create Mitigation: One or many Mitigated Risk Assessments that are linked to one or more Risks through the Is Mitigated relationship.
Note: Verify that all data was successfully uploaded and all relationships have been created or preserved.

About the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders Workbook Layout and Use

In order to import data using the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders, GE Digital APM provides Excel workbooks, Asset Strategy Management (ASM).xlsx and Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Templates.xlsx, which support baseline ASM in GE Digital APM. These workbooks must be used to perform the data load. You can modify the Excel workbook to include custom fields used by your organization. The following tables list the worksheets that are included in the workbooks and then the fields in the corresponding worksheets for both the Strategy and Template Data Loaders.

About the Asset Strategy Management (ASM) Data Loaders Load Verification

About This Task

A successful data import will have the same effect as creating a new Asset Strategy or Strategy Template in GE Digital APM. Following a successful data load, if the data loader created a new strategy or template, it will appear in the Asset Strategies section or the Templates section on the Strategy Management Overview page.

A successful import can also be defined as an event in which partial data on a worksheet was loaded into GE Digital APM, and where the user was given appropriate messaging that enabled him or her to identify and correct issues resulting from the import.
