Automotive supplier relies on SAP

ZF Friedrichshafen, one of the world's largest automotive suppliers, has chosen a wide range of SAP software such as SAP S/4, SAP BW/4 Hana and SuccessFactors solutions to optimize the company's global IT landscape. The implementation and integration of these solutions provides ZF with a unified data foundation for connecting with suppliers, customers and business networks, creating a foundation for new digital business models. ZF chose SAP to realize its ambitious growth strategy and to scale processes across the company with state-of-the-art technology. By implementing SAP's solutions, ZF will move its existing IT system landscape further into the cloud. Following the acquisition of automotive supplier TRW, the implementation of these applications will enable ZF to achieve synergies across all central departments, rapidly roll out global business processes and drive digitalization.
