From the vision to become a digital leader in the industry to the transformation into a future proof business model. This keynote focusses on how to drive business innovations by adopting the SAP S/4 HANA digital core and creating real-time processes that reach out to customers, suppliers, and the workforce – connected to production assets and the myriads of sensor enabled "things".
However, our customers are facing challenges in the adoption of the new digital reality. New priorities are addressing and understanding concepts like Blockchain or Machine Learning that for example could potentially change the status quo in the Utilities business, supporting the Digitalization of the Oil Fields and making the interaction of the equipment and assets possible with the users and customers, enabling new concepts for the Internet of Things, supporting the continuous rollout of the Smart Meters and Smart Grids and making sure that we continue supporting our customers in their required adaptation to the existing and new regulatory environment.
Companies need individual digital journeys that are tailored to their specific needs and priorities.
To help solve complexity and transition of our customers into the digital economy, SAP has built a structured framework to think through how to develop and execute on your digital business strategy: The Digital Business Framework. With this framework, the entire value chain will be digitized including the core which serves as the platform for innovation and business process optimization. Every company can develop a digital strategy across these five pillars:
SAP S/4HANA is the digital core that can deliver on this digital framework allowing customers to scale their digital transformations across the entire enterprise.

The Digital Industry Roadmap (DIR) is the method to drive the business aligned IT roadmap flushing out the need of digitization in the company and how IT can become value driver. It consists of four steps with clearly defined approach and output. viz.
The Digital Industry Roadmap uses state of the art Design Thinking approach and helps business and IT to jointly identity, plan and realize their priorities contributing to the vision of their company.
SAP has invested into Model companies and dedicated Value Assurance Service Packages for industries, i.e. Oil & Gas and Utilities, to help customers to adopt S/4HANA successfully and to free up digital innovation budget to master Digital transformation by reducing TCI and TCO.
