3. PROPOSED SOLUTION

3.1. Overview

Manufacturers attempting to embrace the opportunities of globalization are facing difficult


challenges manifested by a complex, distributed, and ever-changing business network.
Companies need to respond to customer demand at a moment’s notice, take immediate action
in the event of a line failure, and accommodate unanticipated supply network volatility and
disruption.

This can be accomplished by effectively transforming the manufacturing operations strategy to


anticipate change, improve flexibility, ensure high-performing assets, and operate in a high
intensity, demand-driven environment without compromising service or increasing costs.

SAP helps companies closely align operations with corporate objectives and synchronize
manufacturing processes with business processes – while achieving continuous improvement.
SAP also delivers deep manufacturing capabilities that support planning, execution, quality, and
intelligence with integrated end-to-end processes – putting you on the path towards your perfect
plant.

THE DIGITAL ECONOMY


Big picture: Manufacturing companies are powering the fourth industrial revolution

Technology trends change everything

Digitalization has reached every aspect of today’s life, and it is here to stay. For the
manufacturing companies, technologies like:

Internet of Things
Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning
Augmented Reality

provide new and exciting opportunities. But at the same time, they open the playing field for
companies that are not traditional manufacturers but come with expertise in these technologies
from other industries.

The Future: Priorities for Manufacturers


Strategic Priorities

In this situation, where the opportunity is huge but at the same time new market entrants are
threatening traditional companies, it is essential to focus on the right strategic priorities to drive
digitalization across the business.

Page 7 of 27
Technical Proposal for SAP Implementation

1. Customer centricity

Putting the end customer’s point of view at the centre of every decision is a key prerequisite for
success in the digital age. This does not stop in the sales department but also applies to what
products are built and what services are offered.

2. Serving the “segment of one”

Providing solutions that precisely fit the needs of one single customer has been commonplace
in traditional engineer-to-order environments. Now, the ability to capture customer requirements
effectively and drive mass customization is the key to giving customers exactly what they want.

3. Digital smart products

Differentiation and specificity in products stem from digital capabilities and value-added services
that are bundled with the physical products. Using digital capabilities like self-awareness of
technical health and operational status or business system connectivity helps industrial
manufacturers differentiate.

4. Digital supply chain and smart factory

Digital technology on the shop floor and in the supply chain is not new. What is new is the way
production and logistics are intelligently connected to the rest of the business and are able to
deal with external impulses like short-term demand and supply fluctuations or changes in the
configuration of a customer order that require different materials, parts, and machining
operations.

5. Servitization and new business models

As traditional products are commoditized, companies are shifting from selling physical products
to providing complete solutions. Generating more than 50% of revenue from services is a
common goal for manufacturers who are looking for higher profit margins and increased
customer intimacy. The “digital twin for business” is a key requirement, representing the physical
product over the entire lifecycle, including changing data points during manufacturing and
installation as well as operational performance issues, financial value created, and costs incurred
up until the final phase of decommissioning.

Successfully embracing the opportunities from new technologies and consequently addressing
these five strategic priorities will be the foundation of successful digitalization and staying ahead
of the innovation curve.

REIMAGINING

But how do you achieve these strategic priorities? The starting point of the digital journey is the
ability to reimagine your business together with customers. That means reimagining your
business models, your products, your business processes, and your work. The potential is huge:

10% of the data in the digital universe will be coming from embedded systems by 2020

Page 8 of 27
Technical Proposal for SAP Implementation

33% of industrial companies are already using or developing IoT projects, and another 25%
are actively evaluating IoTprojects10
$6.2 trillion is the estimated global worth of Internet of Things technology by 2025
$1 trillion is the estimated size of the machine-to-machine (M2M) market by 2020

REIMAGINING EVERYTHING
THE DIGITAL ECONOMY OFFERS INFINITE OPPORTUNITIES
In a connected world where every company is becoming a technology company, smarter
products and services will refocus commerce on business outcomes and blur industry lines.

REIMAGINE BUSINESS MODELS

In the Manufacturing industry, the next evolution of business models is being driven by digitally
connected equipment combined with business data and third-party information to provide new
service models, such as equipment as a service, value-added software applications, and digital
orchestration of the entire value network for selling customer-specific solutions.

REIMAGINE PRODUCTS

Food manufacturer companies’ products are typically a key differentiator in the marketplace and
the foundation of how these companies build their business and their customers’ businesses.
We expect that companies will expand and redefine their business models by adding digital
services to their currently mechanical-predominant products.

REIMAGINE BUSINESS PROCESSES

In the digitalized world, business processes must go beyond internal and external boundaries.
New digitally enabled product characteristics that are sold through new business models require
companies to reimagine the fundamental processes across all lines of business.

REIMAGINE WORK

To remain successful in the digital economy, companies must reimagine their business models
and processes. Industrial manufacturers require an adaptive workforce with new skills to adjust
to the profound changes in how we work, learn, and interact.

SAP DIGITALTRANSFORMATION FRAMEWORK


A SIMPLE AND PROVEN APPROACH TO VALUE CREATION THROUGH
DIGITALIZATION
Every company across all industries requires a simple digital approach to build a pragmatic and
executable vision of its digital strategy.

Every company needs to think about the five pillars of a digital strategy

As companies are reimagining their entire business, they need an IT architecture that provides
both stability and long-term reliability for the core enterprise processes, and at the same time
allows for flexibility in areas where change is happening on a constant basis. This concept, which
is often referred to as “bimodal IT,” is brought to life through the SAP Digital Transformation
Framework methodology, pictured below.

The digital core is the foundation for the core enterprise processes, which need to run
consistently and uninterrupted. It provides real-time transactions and analytics, the ability to
work with Big Data, and connectivity to the four outside pillars of the framework.
IoT and Assets connect both digital products you are providing to your customers and assets
and machinery on your factory floor to the digital core. A large amount of flexibility is needed
to connect new equipment on a constant basis.
Your customers require flexibility in the way they interact with you through multiple channels.
Flexibility and adaptability in working with business networks are key in order to onboard new
suppliers quickly and shift supply to alternates.
And finally, a lot of flexibility is required when building and maintaining an agile workforce.

Technical Proposal for SAP Implementation

Based on the detailed discussion and our understanding of the challenges with XXXXX we are
offering the SAP S/4 HANA Enterprise Management (Digital Core) for XXXXX.

SAP S/4HANA Manufacturing Overview

The SAP solution for Manufacturing Industry is based on decades of experience SAP has
accumulated partnering with Manufacturer’s globally. With this comprehensive enterprise
resource planning (ERP) solution you get:

The “market of one” is becoming a reality as customer’s desire highly customized and high-
quality products delivered at their choice of time and place and at competitive prices. This is huge
challenge for manufacturing firms. With multiple systems being deployed across multiple plants
and warehouses, organizations are facing more complexity and more touches by employees,
leading to a high cost of ownership, an inability to respond adequately, and poorly informed
decision making due to old, incomplete, or inaccurate information. Without an agile
manufacturing process, transformed for a dynamic and resource-constrained environment, it
becomes more and more difficult to service the demands of today’s customer. The best approach
today is to implement advanced digital technologies, enabling a superior integrated system
(internal and with the business network), streamlined processes, Big Data analytics, and
resource optimization. The core of this digital technology is SAP S/4HANA and it application
program interface (API) framework that drives long-term flexibility.
