Re-envisioning the supply chain with SAP Logistics Business Network

After COVID-19 provided a catalyst for businesses to reinvent the way they operate, companies are finding SAP technology more necessary now than ever before. And NTT DATA are as committed as always to helping companies harness SAP tools to revamp their approach to the traditional supply chain.

COVID-19 shedding light on needed changes

COVID-19 disrupted supply chain efficiency, and as companies found themselves under a lot of pressure, experiencing shortages of both personnel and material, the business world has itself questioned the efficiency of old methods of supply chain management. A critical need has arisen to strengthen and sharpen business networks. Companies in sectors of all kinds are making the shift to digital supply chain management not only to cope with pandemic-induced slowdowns, but also to prepare for an increasingly interconnected future.

Increased agility with SAP Logistics Business Network

The key to improved agility is improved data processing. As companies digitally transform their supply chain processes, they are synchronising processes, making everything more agile. Rather than talking about big data as something new and futuristic, using SAP software to streamline operations has shifted from new to necessary. SAP Logistics Business Network is an integrated platform that allows not only for internal processes to be streamlined, but also for easy connection and transmission of data between key players in the supply chain network. Suppliers, partners and other collaborators can engage more easily, allowing for a more flexible and transparent workflow.

The future: an integrated and streamlined supply chain

Organisations that make the shift to SAP are finding themselves a step ahead of the game because everything is integrated. Data-driven business networks are quickly becoming more high-tech, and traditional methods are left in the dust. At NTT DATA, we’re here to guide your company in this process to revitalise your supply chain using SAP technology.
