In order to hasten its digital transformation, BMW Group has increased its strategic cooperation with SAP.

BMW Group will use RISE with SAP to transfer its whole SAP software landscape once the agreement is confirmed on January 25. In order to enable cooperative innovation for crucial business areas, including finance, parts supply, warehousing, supply chain, and production, the company will integrate its cloud strategy with its current SAP S/4HANA systems. The BMW Group will be able to digitalize more quickly, thoroughly, and effectively as a result of this change.

Applications, platforms, tools, and services are all included under one contract under RISE with SAP, which is designed to promote company transformation. As a result, BMW Group will be able to integrate cutting-edge SAP technology with cloud solutions to spur corporate innovation. Both businesses will use a model that covers operations, infrastructure, and cloud applications in place of the conventional licencing model.

The executive board member for SAP SE who oversees SAP product engineering, Thomas Saueressig, continued, "Our two firms have a strong relationship thanks to 30 years of dependable collaboration. We are taking a major move toward a digital future by increasing our partnership. This demonstrates how SAP S/4HANA Cloud and our wide range of solutions lay the groundwork for businesses to foster innovation and guarantee our customers' long-term success in a cutthroat environment.

CIO and senior vice president of BMW Group IT Alexander Buresch stated: "This strategic choice will help us advance our leadership in digitalization even more quickly. Our infrastructure is becoming more adaptable, and we are achieving maximum global scalability. Most significantly, it enables us to much more quickly introduce business ideas to our users and customers. I am thus eagerly anticipating the following phases in our collaborative adventure with SAP.
