Fortunately, the order books of many SAP partners are well filled. On the one hand, this good order situation leads to satisfaction and serenity, but it also demands the full extent of management resources.

How much time is left for securing the future? To what extent do SAP customers regard us as their competent companions into the digital future? How can we shape the digital transformation of our companies and customers in a way that adds value?

The results of the current survey conducted by the IA4SP working group "Digital Transformation" in cooperation with WerteFactory underpin precisely the relevance and urgency of striking a healthy balance between day-to-day business and safeguarding the future.

While many SAP partners routinely master the challenges of day-to-day business, actively and purposefully shaping the future of their companies and customers is nevertheless a major challenge. They ask themselves how they can ensure the right balance and how implementation works in practice.

Participants at the IA4SP Future Workshop 2019 in Heppenheim on May 21 and 22 will address these and similar questions. Four series of workshops will focus on the healthy balance between day-to-day business, dealing with unexpected changes and securing the future.

You can take part in various workshops and be inspired by the implementation of innovations in practice. There is the opportunity to actively participate in the development of practical steps together with experts.

In addition, participants of the event will benefit from the presentation of selected results of the current IA4SP survey. With the findings of this survey, specific fields of action were identified in terms of securing the future and concrete measures were introduced to specifically increase the competitiveness of companies and their customers.

Prominent participants such as Rainer Hundsdörfer (CEO Heidelberger Druckmaschinen), Otto Schell (Vice Chairman DSAG), Kai Schmidt-Eisenlohr (Managing Director Baden-Württemberg international), Stefan Ruppert (Member of Parliament of the "digitalization party" FDP), Stephan Rathgeber (Head of Digital Hays) and Frank Bayer (President IA4SP) could be won for the panel discussion.

The diversity of the participants' roles (business, politics and associations) in particular promises a comprehensive overview of the challenges and suitable approaches to solutions. Visitors to the IA4SP Future Workshop 2019 can experience the synergies of the new insights for their business.
