SAP Solution: ERP

Enterprise Resource Planning is the holistic and business organization of physical resources and capital as well as data in terms of the company's purpose. ERP is also a collective term for many organizational, technical and business IT applications and solutions.

Festo is often referred to as the jewel of German industry. It has been a year since the successful company switched from SAP ERP ECC to S/4 Hana. Looking back, we can see why a differentiated view of SAP is of great importance.
The latest message from SAP headquarters from CEO Christian Klein is in: data is important and valuable. The year is 2025 and SAP has invented the golden record. Another loss of reality in the SAP universe.
Platforms are the new normal in IT architectures. SAP BTP is a broad-based, heterogeneous solution. Boomi and SAP partner Databricks specialize in data communication.
In recent years, the SAP universe has been atomized. The consistent R/3 black box has become a heterogeneous conglomerate of ERP modules and cloud applications. From blockchain to IoT: SAP seemed to have to follow every IT trend. Today, AI chaos rules the SAP world.
With a complex ERP initiative for a hidden maintenance extension and an alternative cloud roadmap, RISE with SAP should have been given a second chance at survival earlier this year. The announcement of the Business Data Cloud in addition to the Business Technology Platform has finally put S/4 out of business.
The Blanc & Fischer Group was faced with the task of modernizing its ERP systems. To this end, the company carried out two S/4 transformations in its operational corporate groups E.G.O. and Blanco. The smooth go-live of the E.G.O. Group took place after a project duration of 2.5 years.
How often have you read about innovations recently? A simple Google search yields an astonishing 1.85 billion results. However, upon closer inspection, a significant number of these results are not truly innovative.
Which cloud is best for SAP Hana and how do the different providers compare? With how widespread SAP is, the security and performance of these systems are critical.
Older SAP ERP systems remain popular with customers because these installations have been maintained and modified over many years.
The crane and lifting platform manufacturer Tadano increased efficiency and quality in design and production by optimizing parts list management and introducing SAP GSS.
NTT Data has introduced the "SAP Integration with SiGreen" solution as part of the Siemens Xcelerator Business Platform. Siemens SiGreen is a solution for data communication in the supply chain.
SAP software is often the foundation for comprehensive business management and organization in the midmarket. For selected areas such as workforce planning and HR, there is an alternative from Workday.

Working on the SAP basis is crucial for successful S/4 conversion. 

This gives the Competence Center strategic importance for existing SAP customers. Regardless of the S/4 Hana operating model, topics such as Automation, Monitoring, Security, Application Lifecycle Management and Data Management the basis for S/4 operations.

For the second time, E3 magazine is organizing a summit for the SAP community in Salzburg to provide comprehensive information on all aspects of S/4 Hana groundwork.
