SAP CEO Christian Klein recently shared a refreshing vision for a safer, healthier and more prosperous future – one that is driven by becoming an intelligent enterprise. This aspiration adds value during the pandemic and beyond.The new SAP S/4HANA infographic called, “Building Resilience in Turbulent Times” explains these goals centered on three key areas:
- Overcoming challenge
- Identifying the pillars of resilience
- Building systematic resilience
These attributes are echoed in the IDC Market Spotlight, based on a survey to 300 SAP customers, where they shared this insight:
“Evolving to an intelligent enterprise means the organization must implement an operational foundation for future innovation. IDC calls that evolution intelligent ERP1.”
