Four Steps to becoming a best run business from SAP…

See the Whole Picture to Make Faster, Smarter Decisions
With the right solutions in place to produce meaningful, company-wide data, you can act decisively to align resources and investments with the best opportunities; prioritise both short- and long-term goals; increase productivity throughout the organisation; and generate remediation plans to minimise risks.

Control Your Cost Structure End to End
Setting up an environment that automates and integrates processes can help you unify the day-to-day operations of the business. By solving an immediate need in the business, say integrating sales and marketing activities, and then centralising the company’s fundamentals – financials and supply chain operations – you can establish a collaborative, optimised team across your company.

Minimise Risk and LiabilityThe third step to optimise your business is to embed metrics and reporting into your end-to-end processes – whether you are being measured on financial performance, product quality, delivery standards, service level agreements, regulatory compliance, or technical support and service.

Anticipate Change
The fourth step in becoming a best-run business is to build a flexible business model to manage and embrace changes that will invariably come. When you open a new line of business, expand into a new geography, or decide to offer services in addition to products, your business model must be agile.
You must be able to roll out new processes or adapt existing business processes to suit a global account or new supplier – or extend these processes to new regions. You may also need to change your organisational structure, shifting people’s goals or roles quickly to adjust to new opportunities so the company can quickly support them.
