When you stop at the IBM booth at SAPPHIRE NOW, you will surely understand what IBM wants you to experience with its "Experiential Zones."

At IBM booth #1017, the "Experiential Zones" will be a new demo feature that the company will have for its SAPPHIRE NOW engagement. The Experiential Zones are exactly that: it gives you the feel that you are right in the middle of an environment whether its a shop floor in the Predictive Maintenance zone; a health care  setting in the Connected Care zone or a retail feel in the Customer Loyalty zone

If you haven't done so yet, register today for SAPPHIRE NOW + ASUG Conference and here's what to expect from the demos in the IBM Experiential Zones: 

Predictive Maintenance Zone:
What happens if you can't make your product? How much money do you lose? What is the impact to an automotive enterprise such as the customers, consumers, dealers, wholesalers and shareholders? You rely on equipment, machines and plants to produce the products you sell and the Preventative Maintenance Solution from SAP has been developed to keep you from having any disruption. The unique and powerful solution is the marriage of IBM and SAP's innovative technologies. It combines the IBM research department,  Watson artificial intelligence technology, SAP HANA, SAP Business Objects, SAP Mobility & Syclo and IBM hardware. This new innovative solution will allow Automotive OEMs, Suppliers, Dealers to predict more accurately their maintenance strategy for each piece of equipment in their enterprise.

Connected Care Zone

The SAP Predictive Analytics in a Connected Health Care solution establishes critical components of a closed loop analytics environment.  This solution establishes a industry leading data model that captures front office data (implant device, health and wellness, other 3rd party patient data) and integrates it with core back-office data (inventory, customer, sales, manufacturing) to provide connected patient, device, payer and provider analytics.  In addition, advanced, predictive analytics are used to evaluate the data captured in the data model to provide insight into the patient or device's health which will provide critical insight into a patients health and ultimately drive lower health care costs.  The connected care solution will demonstrate the power of integrating the front office and back office with real time analytics through HANA, an approach that can be used for other med device and life sciences companies, as well as for other industries dealing with similar ecosystem challenges.

Customer Loyalty

  The "IBM Loyalty Management Concept Application" connects seamlessly into IBM's Enhanced Loyalty Management Solution for SAP and enables loyalty program members to connect and transact like never before. This comprehensive app shows real-time reward updates, loyalty account information, purchase history, and personalized promotions computed by IBM Research's unique analytics engine. The mobile application provides for mCommerce and rewards redemption capabilities.

The use of the application results in increased customer loyalty, transaction volume, and promotional conversion rates.
