SAP today announced GROW with SAP, a new offering to help midsize customers adopt cloud ERP that enables speed, predictability, and continuous innovation. GROW with SAP customers get the same best practices powering the world’s industry leaders while benefiting from rapid deployment and frictionless updates.
SAP’s ERP offering has long enabled end-to-end transparency across the business for the world’s leading companies. With GROW with SAP, we’re taking this to the next level for midsize companies, with a tailored offering that helps them grow their business, said Christian Klein, CEO and Member of the Executive Board of SAP SE. GROW with SAP provides the agility and innovation midsize companies need not just today, but for their success in years to come, stated Christian Klein.
For 50 years, SAP has been working hand in hand with customers across every industry and using this expertise to benchmark and define best-in-class, industry-specific processes. GROW with SAP provides these preconfigured best practices that midsize companies can immediately adopt. Embedded AI and automation capabilities mean customers see rapid results. The GROW with SAP offering also brings together SAP S/4HANA Cloud, a public edition, with accelerated adoption services, a global community of experts, and free learning resources, helping customers go live in as little as four weeks.
GROW with SAP also includes the SAP Business Technology Platform, so customers can define their processes in a cloud-native way using SAP Build. With SAP Build solutions, business users can create enterprise apps, automate processes, and design business sites without writing code, an important asset for those closest to the business who can create the solutions they need.
When we develop a new product and we have it on SAP S/4HANA Cloud, public edition, with one push of the button, everyone sees the same prices, the localized naming, product data, sales for today, and the expected sales next week. SAP S/4HANA Cloud, the public edition, helps us get a complete picture of the stock, capacity, and delivery times, ensuring a more efficient business for RIHO and a better experience for our customers all over the world, said Guy Claesen, CEO of RIHO.
IDC research shows that many midsize businesses find themselves growing rapidly and need their technology to grow with their business as they encounter the same issues related to global complexity as larger enterprise businesses.
With GROW with SAP, SAP recognized they need to better fit the business and technology requirements of midsize companies looking for a cloud ERP solution, IDC enterprise software group vice president Mickey North Rizza said. This offering reengages the market with a refreshingly new opportunity to unlock the proven strength of SAP’s longtime understanding and leadership in the ERP space in the cloud, commented Mickey North Rizza.
