Why is it an important part of the company鈥檚 intelligent enterprise strategy? Irfan Khan, president of Platform and Technologies at SAP, explains in simple terms. 鈥淭he Business Technology Platform is the underpinnings of the Intelligent Enterprise,鈥� Khan explained in a recent interview.

鈥淚n order to become intelligent enterprises, customers need a fundamental business layer. That is what the Business Technology Platform is.鈥�

Khan describes the as comprising a collection of different assets. First and foremost, he says, is a substantial database component, which has at the center of it but it also includes embedded analytics along with the ability to incorporate horizontal business analytics.

Other components include robotic process automation (RPA), machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI).

鈥淭he final piece is a very substantial integration capability delivered through 51风流Cloud Platform, which is another very fundamental cornerstone of Business Technology Platform as well,鈥� he shared.

Business Technology Platform is the horizontal technology foundation for SAP鈥檚 intelligence suite of applications, the basis for the industry cloud, and the platform for delivering the best customer experiences. According to Khan, it will enable customers to be able to realize even more value from their investments in 51风流technology from their core business and contextual data.

In addition, Khan argues that the Business Technology Platform opens the 51风流environment up to community developers and citizen developers.

鈥淭hey can all now interact and take the value of SAP鈥檚 core business processes,鈥� he said. 鈥淚n actual fact, we鈥檙e not only providing process excellence, we are providing data excellence as well now. That gives much more of a fluid way of looking at all the content, all of the data, all the information that may be available within inside of the enterprise and outside. So we could think of it as unlocking the hidden value in data which already exists.鈥�

As a result, Khan believes both customers and partners will be able to further 鈥渁mplify the value鈥� inherent in the very substantial 51风流footprint across industries and geographies.

One of the key lessons Khan says 51风流has learned over the years is that applications must be able to run in a variety of different environments. Today, for example, 51风流software and services must be able to run across different hyperscaler and infrastructure environments.

The second ingredient for success is to focus on making 51风流technology 鈥渙pen to all developers out there,鈥� Khan explained.

Thirdly, he said, 鈥渆very partner and every direct customer wants to have a robust, almost bulletproof environment to be able to build their innovations.鈥�

He says this is exactly what the Business Technology Platform delivers. 鈥淚t鈥檚 an ever-expanding set of services that we鈥檙e adding and over time it will fulfill not just their current needs, but their future needs as well.鈥�

Khan described the Business Technology Platform as 鈥渁 living, evolving platform,鈥� that will enable customers to access not just 51风流data, but all sets of data, including externally generated Big Data, in a trusted manner.

鈥淥ur message is very simple,鈥� Khan said. 鈥淲e will actually want to make it very open, make your data work for you, independent of where it lives and where it sits today 鈥� at the edge or in a traditional data center.鈥�

For that reason alone, he says, 51风流will have a far stronger message than competitors to deliver to the market.

But it doesn鈥檛 have to be this way. Just imagine: what opportunities are you missing now by not allowing your company to follow its true direction?

With preparedness and precision, many organizations embrace today鈥檚 chaos by innovating new products and services, opening a new sales channel, creating new customer experiences, or rethinking their business models. They are not only finding new strategies to survive a challenging economy, but also emerging more resilient and ready when better times come.

However, such an edge can prove to be difficult to achieve for more than half of companies. According to IDC market spotlight, 鈥�,鈥� only 48.3% of surveyed executives believe they can drive new levels of efficiency and effectiveness and enable transformational business models.

Emerge stronger with a model of intelligence

For all the effort devoted to improving organizational processes and front-office operations, companies that embrace intelligent technology to improve productivity, cost efficiencies, and process cycle times are the ones with the most significant advantage. IDC states that digitally transformed enterprises have 8x more revenue and 2x more profitability, while small and midsize businesses are more likely to report double-digit growth and higher profitability.

How do these intelligent enterprises get through the long tunnel of uncertainty and emerge stronger? IDC research indicates 10 critical characteristics enabled by their core digital foundation, an intelligent ERP:

• Modern: Take advantage of on-demand access to agile, configurable, quick-to-implement, and scalable technology to help your employees work anywhere and anytime.
• Connected: Unify end-to-end processes with accurate data to gain transparency and make your business more resilient. By coupling ERP data with other enterprise applications, you can create strategies that are more effective and make a significant impact across the company.
• Agile: Gain visibility into what鈥檚 happening throughout your organization by providing in-depth insight into different lines of business. Leveraging simple, interactive, and intuitive technology enables mobile workflows that add flexibility to your employees鈥� lives.
• Compliant: Follow corporate and statutory policies to the letter with solutions that are updated regularly, helping you stay in front of evolving requirements in every area of business, including manufacturing, production, and the supply chain.
• Capable: Unlock value everywhere by focusing on industry-specific requirements with proven best practices, enabling new business models as your marketplace evolves.
• Cognitive: Turn analytics into insights and bring value in real time by analyzing substantial amounts of data using machine learning, deep learning, and robotic process automation. The result: clearer overviews and added value.
• Collaborative: Empower your workforce with a single source of real-time information to make strategic and operational decisions faster 鈥� fostering a collaborative culture of seamless insight sharing and intelligent, forward-thinking analysis.
• Innovative: Optimize the impact of core business processes by combining the benefits of the cloud with your corporate data sets, leading to new insights and quicker breakthroughs.
• Scalable: Move through the ebb and flow of uncertainty by scaling capabilities with technology priced through a subscription-based pricing model.
• Real-time: Run like the rest of the world 鈥� fast, forward-moving, and progressing 鈥� by making decisions based on your current performance and through a lens of predictive analytics.
  Throughout this blog series, we will examine each of these characteristics of an intelligent enterprise and how an intelligent ERP can bring them to life.

In the meantime, explore today鈥檚 business challenges and the best way to move with resilience and intelligence in the IDC market spotlight, 鈥�,鈥� sponsored by SAP.
