SAP Digital Supply Chain
Efficient and seamless SAP ERP transformation for your business success
In our globalized business world, supply chains are becoming increasingly complex and dynamic. The mostly global supplier network, volatile demand and rising customer expectations present companies with the challenge of maintaining an overview of their value chain at all times.
At the same time, the system landscape in many companies is very diverse and fragmented: whether planning, purchasing, warehouse or production – each department uses its own systems, which makes it difficult to gain a holistic overview of the supply chain.
SAP Digital Supply Chain solutions offer companies the opportunity to make their supply chain more integrated, networked and agile – from planning to manufacturing and execution. As an experienced SAP partner and process expert in operations, we support you in the transformation of your supply chain.
Regardless of whether you are planning a complete changeover or just need support for a specific product: We help you to integrate your processes seamlessly. Together, we leverage potential, create transparency and optimize your supply chain – from the first raw material to the end customer.

SAP Digital Supply Chain Strategy
Your customized roadmap to transformation
Many companies know that the heart of their process landscape – their supply chain – needs to be digitally transformed in order to compete internationally. However, processes are often so diverse and fragmented across departments that it is difficult to develop a clear, implementable strategy. As a result, there is a lack of a comprehensive overview of the entire value chain and a clear vision of which technologies and processes offer the greatest potential. This uncertainty often leads to the transformation being delayed for an unnecessarily long time.
This is where we come in. With a combination of in-depth SAP knowledge and comprehensive supply chain expertise, we help you to develop a clear target picture for your digital supply chain and actively support the transformation. We start with a detailed analysis of your existing processes and system landscape to identify the biggest areas for action. On this basis, we develop a tailor-made strategy that takes your individual business requirements into account and makes optimum use of the latest SAP technologies.
Our in-depth understanding of supply chain processes and our experience as an SAP partner enable us to provide you with expert support throughout the entire transformation process – from the initial concept through to implementation.
Our service packages:
- Comprehensively analyze all supply chain processes and the system landscape
- Identifying fields of action and potential
- Present and discuss SAP solutions and the use of technology
- Developing an individual digital supply chain implementation roadmap
- Actively support implementation and ensure success
Your benefit:
- You receive a solid foundation for the digitalization of your supply chain

Warehouse management
Maximum transparency & automation in warehouse and logistics with SAP EWM, SAP SRM, SAP MFS & SAP Warehouse Insights
Companies are faced with the major challenge of designing their warehouse processes efficiently and at the same time meeting the requirements of modern automation. Particularly in the course of the S/4 HANA transformation and the discontinuation of SAP LES, SAP TRM and SAP WM, or when replacing inefficient third-party systems, switching to the current SAP warehouse solutions offers numerous opportunities for optimization.
However, the decision between SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) and SAP Stock Room Management is only the first step. It is just as important to recognize automation potential and to efficiently integrate the multitude of hardware solutions – such as autonomous industrial trucks, conveyor technology or picking robots – into the existing system landscape.
Our customized consulting services support you in developing the best strategy for your warehouse management. We help you to maximize the efficiency gains of new software solutions and exploit the full automation potential. To do this, we analyze your existing processes, evaluate your requirements and support you in the selection between SAP EWM and SAP Stock Room Management as well as their implementation – always with the aim of ensuring the success of the project.
On request, we can also develop a customized overall concept for your warehouse automation that optimally combines man and machine. With SAP Warehouse Robotics and the MFS functionality of SAP EWM, we enable seamless integration of modern technologies that ensure maximum efficiency, transparency and flexibility. With the help of SAP Warehouse Insights or our specially developed Process Mining app, you can always keep an eye on your processes and create a solid basis for future optimizations.
Our service packages:
- Analyze your logistics processes comprehensively
- Identify automation potential
- Present possible process adaptations for better software integration
- Facilitate professional decision between SAP EWM & SAP Stock Room Management or alternative solutions

Transportation & Yard Management
Control over the entire transportation chain with SAP Yard Logistics, SAP TM & SAP Logistics Business Network
Transportation and yard management are often critical bottlenecks in the supply chain. Unclear yard processes, inefficient loading and unloading procedures and a lack of real-time transparency in the transportation flow lead to delays and increased costs. Companies often struggle with a complex transportation landscape that results in inefficient processes, high operating costs and a lack of visibility. The key challenge lies in making transport processes more efficient, using the right tools and ensuring seamless integration into the existing system landscape.
With SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM) and SAP Yard Logistics (SAP YL), you can connect your logistics and transportation management end-to-end – from suppliers to production and logistics sites to customers. SAP TM reduces the complexity of your transportation processes, increases efficiency and improves agility – to create a more sustainable and resilient supply chain. Whether modern Transportation Management (SAP TM), the Logistics Business Network (SAP LBN) or the Logistics Execution Transportation Module (SAP LE-TRA) – high-performance transportation processes are the basis for smooth handling.

Sales & Operations Planning
Proactive planning and precise demand forecasts for a dynamic supply chain with SAP IBP
Highly fragmented process chains between sales, production and purchasing often lead to inefficient processes and a lack of coordination in the planning process. However, precise and targeted sales and operations planning is essential today and crucial for sustainable business success. Without an integrated solution across the various areas, the potential of planning remains untapped and competitiveness suffers considerably.
With SAP Integrated Business Planning (SAP IBP), SAP offers a powerful software solution that enables companies to adapt their planning processes to dynamic market conditions and increasing customer requirements. SAP IBP covers all areas of planning: from tactical planning – including the linking of sales forecasts, inventory targets, marketing and financial targets – to the creation of a resilient sales plan and short-term adjustment to fluctuations in demand. The prioritization and sub-scheduling of customer orders at an operational or tactical level is also optimally supported.
Our experienced consultants combine in-depth supply chain expertise with sound SAP knowledge. We help you to successfully master the transition to SAP IBP, adapt the solution to your individual requirements and establish new, efficient processes in your company.
