At an executive meeting, #porsche and SAP now have sealed a new strategic #partnership. For several decades now, the sports car manufac- turer has been successfully using products from the software company based in Wall- dorf near Stuttgart. To allow each partner tap into the expertise and experience of the other, #porsche and SAP have together set themselves the goal of driving forward co- innovations in order to jointly develop new solutions for the digital transformation.
“I am convinced that this type of partnership is exactly what we need to promote inno- vations in Germany,” explains Lutz Meschke, Deputy Chairman and Member of the Executive Board for Finance and IT at #porsche: “Our aim is to jointly realise new ideas. This will be benefit not only our two businesses, but other companies as well.” Accord- ing to him, SAP is an important partner for #porsche. Both companies have already rolled out many ground-breaking projects together. Meschke mentions the order man- agement system PIA as an example of this. “Based on these excellent experiences, we decided to take our collaboration to a whole new level,” comments Meschke. The strategic #partnership will focus on data-driven business models, artificial intelligence and an end-to-end process-driven architecture. The #partnership is not just about de- veloping new ideas; existing projects will also be integrated into the collaboration.
“Porsche is synonymous with performance and innovative power worldwide,” confirms Christian Klein, Co-CEO of SAP SE: “As part of our strategic #partnership, we want to build on the many promising joint projects to continue developing the standard in the #automotive industry. The roll-out of S/4HANA at our strategic partner #porsche has high priority for us and we are looking forward to collaborating on many joint developments, which will be closely integrated via the SAP cloud platform.”
SAP and #porsche have initiated a “Board of Architects” to exploit the full potential of this #partnership. The objective is to improve networking by communicating closely on a business and technology architecture level in current programmes. This cooperation on a strategic level is designed to optimise the mutual benefit of both companies in the long term.
“Our aim is to be a close partner of #porsche throughout the digital transformation pro- cess in order to make a joint success of this,” explains Dr. Daniel Holz, CEO of SAP Deutschland SE & Co. KG: “From the very start, we have broken new ground in this strategic #partnership with #porsche. Design thinking is a core element of our work to- gether and we have managed in just a short space of time to focus on the right issues and take a solution-oriented approach. This is a best-in-its-class collaboration model.”
