Small versus Leonardo

What Christian Klein overlooks: For many years - and now intensified by the pandemic - there has been a return to local manufacturing. The added value of outsourcing to so-called low-wage countries has melted away in recent years like snow in spring. Corona is accelerating this trend.
"They're bringing back their manufacturing and buying robots."wrote Professor Dalia Marin. She teaches "International Economics" at the Technical University of Munich.
And further: "We are seeing tectonic changes in the global economy with a renaissance of industrial production in rich industrialized countries. The share of manufacturing in value added will rise in rich countries." (Source: spiegel.de/...)
A return to SAP Leonardo (the IoT/Industry 4.0 framework from Walldorf) would thus be the much more successful path for Christian Klein, because the thousands of robots and CNC machines need sensors and ME (Manufacturing Execution) systems.
However, SAP has neglected the "Leonardo" framework over the past 18 months, sloppy and left it unprocessed - SuccessFactors and Qualtrics were more important, right? Christian Klein still has a little time to manage the course correction in the direction of "Leonardo". After the pandemic, the die is cast.
