The IBM and SAP Value Generation Partnership initiative will enable clients to accelerate their RISE enabled cloud journeys, their paths to innovation, their competitive advantage to become next generation enterprises. This initiative will focus on 4 key areas Next Generation Business Process, Next Generation Industry Innovation, Next Generation Architecture and Approach and Next Generation Ecosystem Expansion.
Through an IBM client adoption program, the initiative will use Signavio to understand current processes and define next generation LOB processes for Office of the CFO, Digital Supply Chain, Human Capital Management, Customer Experience and Intelligent Spend Management and will also define an AI- prescriptive roadmap of SAP embedded functionality and IBM-SAP co-innovation solutions. We will work with our clients to activate SAP Joule capabilities to support their transformation journeys.
IBM will collaborate with the SAP Industry business units and clients to co-innovate and deliver next generation industry processes. The initiative will also develop an AI prescriptive roadmap of high value add industry areas and proposed solution approach. IBM will build 100 SAP Business AI solutions and will showcase these solutions in the IBM Innovation Studios and the SAP Experience Centers around the globe. The initiative will start with industrial manufacturing, consumer product goods (CPG), retail, defense, automotive and utilities and add additional industries over time.
The initiative will provide a prescriptive approach to Clean Core, using SAP Build and prebuilt extensibility accelerators within SAP BTP and modern architecture with LeanIX. IBM will also deliver a comprehensive and strategic Data strategy supporting optimized AI outcomes. IBM will infuse Gen AI into our project delivery and application management approach leveraging the IBM Consulting Advantage Platform which allows for easy access to IBM Consulting’s SAP proprietary methods, purpose-built SAP Industry and LOB AI assets and AI trained models and role-based generative AI assistants for SAP implementation.
IBM and SAP will combine the power of our organizations around collaboration with University Alliance, Women’s Business Network, and Veterans to Work programs to increase the SAP-experienced consulting workforce and to develop the next generation of talent. The partnership initiative will also collaborate on social impact programs to create job programs for at risk populations.
