Experience the intelligent ERP with SAP

Why an intelligent ERP?

Across a diverse range of industries, even the most traditional enterprises are creating opportunities to disrupt their markets and transform their business models. Traditional car manufacturers like Ford or Volvo are transforming into ‘mobility services’ or ‘digital entertainment businesses’. Luxury hotels are ‘turning guests into fans’ by interacting with them via radio-frequency identification RFID and Virtual Reality. Everywhere businesses are looking to connect, understand and engage with their customers.

At the same time businesses are still faced with the same challenges as ever: attracting and retaining talent, becoming more efficient, increasing productivity, controlling quality, managing risk, managing cashflow and winning new business.

That’s why business leaders need a longer-term vision which is ultimately to find ways to make every aspect of their organisation – their processes, services, products and customer experience, automatically better over time. Without a vision for an intelligent enterprise, business of all types and sizes are practically sealing their future demise

SOA People has the Expertise to inspire your business performance and support your journey to becoming an Intelligent Enterprise with the ERP solution, SAP S/4HANA:

• Rethink your value propositions
• Create new digital business processes

Digital transformation and the changing business model

Digital transformation is real and is empowering companies to make radical system-wide innovations so they can do business differently. But as a business leader you may ask if everything’s working well in my business and we’re making a profit, why do I need to change anything at all?

Business models are rapidly changing and you need to stay ahead of the competition or miss out. It may not be immediate, but in a year or so you may see you market share diminishing to your competitor who did offer their customers a mobile app, a smart meter or a new easier way of doing business.

Business leaders who don’t yet have it on the agenda need to know that no-one is exempt. If it’s not on your agenda, then you can be sure it’s on your competitor’s. Are you ready to be part of our customers’ Business leaders?
