The True-blue SAP Partner

Businesses across domains experienced unprecedented disruption as a result of COVID-19. Enterprises that had already begun their digital transformation glided through with ease, compared to those who were still in the early stages of digitization. Regardless of an organization's digital maturity level, one thing that remained constant was the pace of digitalization across functions. However, before embarking on any digital transformation project, it is necessary to get the foundation right. This is where the implementation of an intelligent ERP system like SAP plays a pivotal role, helping businesses navigate through the uncertainties of a post- COVID world.

SAP serves as the backbone of a renewable enterprise. It offers an ideal intersection for AI and advanced analytics, resulting in enhanced business insights that may harness creativity and enable new business models. By simplifying the core, innovating around it, and producing actionable insights that produce value, clients can leverage and revolutionize their ERP platform. Recognizing the benefits of SAP, a number of organizations have developed to assist in transforming an organization's corporate concept into a functional place. One such expert is delaware.

Founded in 2003, delaware is a fast-growing, global company that provides advanced solutions and services to businesses seeking a long-term competitive advantage. It helps customers with their business transformations by collaborating with SAP, ensuring continuity and continuous improvement. In addition, it follows its own long-term, sustainable business model in every way.

“By choosing SAP, you are only embracing market leaders in business and a powerhouse of innovation, whereas by choosing both SAP and Delaware, you are combining software power with a commitment to improve your business with the help of experts,” says Wynn Bsum, Managing Partner, delaware.

Power of SAP to Strengthen Business

delaware assists in unlocking the full value of SAP S/4HANA by leveraging its considerable knowledge and many years of experience with the SAP platform. The company helps establish the roadmap in the first stage, determining how S/4HANA can benefit your company, what features clients need, and whether they require an on-premise or cloud deployment. Then walk them through the full process of migration.

"Since we understand that SAP S/4HANA represents a significant change in the way you do business, we'd be pleased to assist you with change management to encourage user adoption," says Bsum. With SAP's next-generation S/4HANA, delaware also simplifies procedures, reduces complexity, and leverages technology to help customers achieve their business goals and leverage the potential of SAP Concur. Its interface with SAP Concur provides its clients with a comprehensive picture of their total travel spend and traveler behavior trends, enabling better-informed administration and control of their travel programs. Business travelers benefit from Concur's flexibility and mobile usability as well. Receipts may be simply and directly scanned using OCR, eliminating the loss of original receipts and the accompanying administrative complexity. Clients can recoup their spending more efficiently by rapidly organizing their expense reports. Additionally, with SAP Concur, one can simply book business trips, submit detailed expense reports, and get them authorized all from the same platform.

As a long-term SAP Gold partner, delaware has access to significant knowledge at SAP headquarters. For instance, delaware has participated in the SAP Leonardo beta-partner program. It provides software and microservices that enable consumers to make use of technologies such as the Internet of Things, machine learning, blockchain, analytics, and Big Data. For months, delaware has been running entirely in the cloud, on SAP S/4HANA Professional Services Cloud. It is one of the first customers of SAP S/4HANA Professional Services Cloud and one of the world's first distributors of SAP S/4HANA Cloud as a result of our participation in that program. Based on that experience – and with many years of SAP implementation experience – it is well-positioned to assist clients in developing a 'to the cloud' plan and building them fit-for-purpose SAP system in the cloud.

"delaware has been an award-winning SAP partner since 1997, a SAP Gold Channel Partner since 2006, and one of the world's earliest SAP S/4HANA Cloud resellers. We can help you integrate intelligence into your SAP systems by combining our established expertise with SAP technologies with our extensive knowledge of AI and machine-learning applications," says Bsum.

Addressing the Need for Talent

Furthermore, delaware has a good track record of delivering outcomes to organizations in a variety of industries in the form of increased employee engagement and success in hiring qualified candidates. The company has firsthand knowledge of the considerable benefits that SAP SuccessFactors can bring to a firm, having deployed it in their own organization. Depending on the clients’ context and situation, it may be beneficial to develop HR processes in a systematic manner by raising awareness; defining improvement programs and a roadmap; executing transformations and technology implementation, and building business process architecture.

Today, delaware's ongoing emphasis on innovation is paying off. The organization grew by 69 percent YOY, with the cloud business expanding by an astonishing 487 percent. In fact, delaware was one of the first partners in the world to close an 'S/4 Single Tenant on Azure' agreement in 2018. "It's no coincidence that we're closing so many Cloud ERP and Cloud HR agreements at the same time. One aspect of this strategic alignment was the adoption of SAP S/4 HANA cloud at delaware, but we also held cloud strategy workshops and examined the cloud's influence on our reselling and advisory business model alongside SAP. Today, we are reaping the benefits of our tight collaboration with SAP. We boldly drive customers into a new, cloud-first world by providing the whole range of SAP (cloud) solutions," concludes Bsum.
