Digital transformation looks different for every company. For some, the focus is on security in the age of the cloud, others want to streamline their processes with new tools and thus improve their profitability, and still others focus on the topic of sustainability against the backdrop of rising resource and energy costs.Under the motto "In Search of Success", the DSAG Jahreskongress from 11 to 13 October 2022 in Leipzig brought together the most important leading topics of the different industries and showed which solutions IT offers for the greatest challenges. The congress hits the nail on the head when it talks about business networks becoming increasingly important for exchanging relevant data, services or products efficiently and across companies.
The cooperation of the market participants will intensify as a result and spread to other sectors in the future. In the process, users will be dependent on the assistance of SAP in order to place the corresponding cooperations on a secure basis and to orient them towards the future.
The main topics at the DSAG Jahreskongress were the fields of services & shared services, industry & trade, service & support, technology and transformation. The topics were brought to life by various keynotes and expert contributions.
The SAP experts from CONSILIO in Munich also actively participated in the event with a presentation and a stand. CONSILIO is a full lifecycle service partner for the realisation of forward-looking solutions with real added value for Finance, Marketing & Sales, Purchasing & Procurement, Supply Chain Planning, Production and Logistics as well as the transformation of integrated SAP applications to S/4HANA.Together with their customer BLG LOGISTICS - Europe's leading logistics service provider - the SAP specialists gave a presentation on how to use IBP to make the sustainability of the flow of goods in a global network transparent and controllable at a granular level. With this solution, BLG LOGISTICS strengthens its competitiveness in the automotive logistics sector by digitising the strategic planning processes with SAP IBP.
In parallel, BLG implemented CO2 balancing according to Scope 1, 2, 3 and X emissions in IBP with the support of CONSILIO, which can be used to calculate volume planning and thus document and actively model the sustainability of the company.
At the booth, the experts provided information about the S/4HANA transformation and how companies can benefit from it. The focus here was on the areas of Smart Accounting (Finance), Production & Logistics and Customer Experience (with the Sales and Service Cloud). In addition, the guests were able to take part in an attractive, but also very challenging competition. The task was to estimate the number of filling chips in a box that had been set up. Some visitors gave a number by feel, others tried to solve the puzzle scientifically, for example by measuring the box and then calculating the quantity using a standard snippet.
For the SAP specialists from CONSILIO, the congress was a complete success due to the highly qualified audience and the good discussions.
The numerous discussions with customers and interested parties showed that CONSILIO, as an SAP Gold Partner, offers answers to all user challenges with its service portfolio and extensive expert knowledge in the areas of Finance, Marketing & Sales, Purchasing & Procurement, Supply Chain Planning, Production and Logistics as well as the transformation of integrated SAP applications to S/4HANA.
