Your opportunity to Influence SAP – Customer Engagement Initiative Projects 2022-2 for SAP Supply Chain Management

In the Sapphire 2022 keynote, it all boiled down to three imperatives that shape our businesses of today and tomorrow: fast digital transformation, resilient supply chains and sustainable business models.

In the past two years, the repercussions of non-resilient supply chains have been impacting all of our lives and kept us lacking and waiting – for vaccines, hygienic masks, lung ventilators, for deliveries stuck in the Suez canal because of “Ever Given”, for car (or bike) parts, wheat, pasta, sunflower oil or toilet paper. 

The volatility of our supply chains and the interdependencies of our world’s economies have become a focal topic – for businesses and end users. Along with the realization that business software that ensures more resilience, predictability, agility and sustainability is more crucial than ever. 

Therefore, I’m proud that SAP is offering numerous projects and opportunities to get first-hand experience with SAP’s portfolio of Supply Chain Management software. The projects will be open for customer registration until July 8, 2022. 

Our SAP Customer Engagement Initiative (CEI) projects enable you, as an SAP customer or partner, to get early insights into SAP’s product developments and directly work with the developers to define and shape future product directions.
