▌ INDUSTRY CHALLENGES

What makes the energy sector challenging in SAP.

Four areas in which we typically support energy and utility companies.

▌ OUR ANSWER

Our answer: treasury and finance at the centre, asset processes integrated.

In the energy sector, financial management, liquidity and reporting are at the heart of our work. That is why we place our focus on Corporate Finance & Treasury. In addition, we integrate the asset and master data structures from the Digital Supply Chain area, so that technology and finance work together consistently.

▌ DIGITAL SUPPLY CHAIN: COMPLEMENTARY FOR ASSETS AND MASTER DATA

Asset-intensive industries need clean master data and traceable processes between engineering, maintenance and finance. We structure these interfaces in SAP so that data flows between asset accounting, maintenance and reporting remain robust.

• Master data governance: consistent data between engineering and finance
• Digital Supply Chain consulting: structured asset and material processes
