Companies face many challenges on their ERP journeys, from defining the right approach to building a resilient strategy that can adapt to rapid technology changes, such as GenAI. By our estimates, 50% to 70% of ERP programs fall short of their targets. Yet when ERP transformations hit the mark, they deliver benefits that are worth multiples of the investment.
The collaboration between BCG and SAP helps companies take a proactive and accelerated end-to-end approach to ERP transformations, allowing them to maximize value-creation in a manner that fosters confidence throughout the organization.
BCG and SAP also have specialized expertise in sustainability. Through our unique partnership for true transformation in sustainability, we are helping companies accelerate their journey to zero waste and zero emissions, generate competitive advantage, and achieve 10% market premiums in many industries.
