SAP-powered transformation needs to be led by business in collaboration with IT Most IT teams are tied to legacy infrastructure that requires long cycles and manual processes for configuration; this, compounded by decreasing budgets, leaves them unable to react to fast-changing business needs. Switching to real-time data-driven decision-making without changing one’s core is very expensive and comes with operational overhead (for example, the promise of Teradata and other data warehouse solutions).
Today, ERP investment decisions are cutting across functions such as finance and supply chain with far-reaching implications. Business is now required to go beyond just changing infrastructure; business must lead. The destination is a new digital core – SAP S/4HANA – in the cloud that powers insight, speed and efficiency:
- Accelerate innovation with improved insight and predictions
- Move faster and accelerate time to value with agility
- Improve business processes and efficiency by optimizing operations
- Reduce costs and TCO
Such a modern IT foundation enables revolutionary new capabilities, giving business leaders an increased ability to quickly respond to threats and opportunities and to change plans instantly, all while remaining cost-efficient, compliant, and secure – and meeting day-to-day responsibilities with ease.
