More and more Indian businesses are turning to the SAP RISE program – the German tech giant’s Business Transformation as a Service (BTaaS) milestone offering – to help them transform their operations and drive digital transformation. 

According to SAP Indian Subcontinent President and Managing Director Kulmeet Bawa, India has been leading all countries in terms of SAP growth. In an interview with Mint, he said that India was the top Asia-Pacific (APAC) business region for seven consecutive quarters. Bawa went on the say that for the eighth straight quarter, India will have the greatest growth rate and largest contribution to the Asia-Pacific and Japan (APJ) business.

Detailing more about the country’s contribution to RISE with SAP, Bawa shared:

“Globally, we’re contributing 13-15% to SAP’s RISE business division (Cloud ERP), which is big for a country the size of India. We’ve doubled our cloud customers in the past two years.”

The SAP RISE program is a cloud-based, subscription-based service that helps businesses accelerate their digital transformation journey. It provides access to a suite of tools and services that can help businesses optimize their operations, drive innovation, and improve customer experience.

As the SAP Indian Subcontinent MD put it, RISE with SAP is the preferred method for clients to move SAP workloads to the cloud. With hyperscaler cloud providers merely offering the underlying infrastructure, he said this has helped SAP expand and accelerate its growth.

“Yes, there is hybrid cloud adoption, and there are firms running on more than one cloud solution, but most are looking to standardize. Clients want agility and a single point of contact to deal with it,” Bawa added.

The year 2022 marked a tipping point in India’s embrace of cloud computing. SAP still sees India as a key market in terms of both business and innovation. Engineering, construction, life sciences and pharma, consumer packaged goods and retail, and information technology and related services (IT-ITeS) are just few of the areas that have seen rapid adoption of cloud computing.

SAP had massive expansion across all market segments, from the large segment to the small and medium-sized enterprises. Big companies like Mahindra & Mahindra, Wipro Limited, and HCLTech have all migrated their key digital operations to the cloud. Another Indian company that has recently utilized RISE with SAP to change its digital scene on the cloud is Best Value Chem Private Limited.

Best Value Chem Pvt Ltd Selects SAP RISE Program for Transformation

RISE with SAP provides an intelligent, integrated and comprehensive solution that helps organizations like Best Value Chem Private Limited overcome business challenges and unlock their true potential. The power of the cloud allows for real-time data collection and analysis, which in turn helps business leaders make more informed decisions.

Commenting on Birlasoft Best Value Chem Private Limited’s collaboration for the RISE with SAP implementation, and VeRajeev Singh, Vice President and Head of Midmarket at SAP Indian Subcontinent, said:

“Cloud technology is now mission-critical for businesses of all sizes and industries. And it is our partners like Birlasoft who are accelerating this growth trajectory for customers such as Best Value Chem. We’re extremely excited to become an integral part of this journey, that they’ve chosen towards excellence through SAP for digital transformation.”

Best Value Chem Private Limited’s Finance, Procurement, Production Planning, Sales, and Quality Management have all benefited from SAP Partner Birlasoft’s deployment of RISE with SAP, which has simplified and modernized the company’s processes. In only a span of five months, the full migration was completed.

Shaju CO, CEO at Best Value Chem Private Limited, highlighted that Birlasoft was selected as BVC’s digital transformation partner due to the company’s prominent position in the market. He believes this will help the corporation achieve more transparency, productivity, accountability, and financial security.

Because of the SAP transformation project, Best Value Chem Private Limited is now able to operate more flexibly, quickly, and productively. By integrating artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies and establishing solid reporting systems, it also assisted in developing a foundation for the intelligent business process.

Further explaining why they chose RISE with SAP and what benefits the platform has provided so far, the CEO detailed:

“BVC has achieved a major milestone with the implementation of RISE With SAP. With this, we are glad to commence our digital transformation journey. Having a legacy of 25 years, BVC needed a robust, innovative, and resilient solution to give us an edge in the coming years.”

Tate & Lyle and Capstone Mining have selected RISE with SAP to advance their digital transformation initiatives and business growth strategies. Both companies plan to implement SAP S/4HANA Cloud as part of the SAP RISE program in a bid to improve operational efficiency and accelerate their journey to becoming an intelligent enterprise.

The German enterprise software giant’s Business Transformation as a Service (BTaaS) offering RISE with SAP reflects the company’s commitment to delivering flexible and scalable products and services that meet the evolving needs of customers and partners. Harnessing the power of cloud to drive innovation and business transformation, the subscription-based SAP RISE program continues to gain traction globally since its introduction in January this year. In the last reported quarter, the solution witnessed an addition of more than 250 new clients from across various sectors including the likes of Vikran Engineering & Exim Pvt Ltd, RA Chem Pharma, Mah Sing Group, and Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad.

Recently, SAP has added global specialty food and beverage solutions business Tate & Lyle and base metals producer Capstone Mining to its roster of customers that have already signed up for the customer-first, partner-centric service offering.

Facilitating Tate & Lyle’s SAP S/4HANA Cloud Implementation

As a provider of ingredients and solutions to the food, beverage, and other industries, Tate & Lyle has around 4,400 employees working in more than 60 locations across 30 countries. Through its innovation and application centres worldwide, the company delivers customised services and technology consultancy from new product innovation to its customers. In Singapore, Tate & Lyle’s application centre is the firm’s Asia-Pacific headquarters supported by a network of laboratories, sales, and technical service resources in Australia, New Zealand, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam.

Sanjay Patel, CIO at Tate & Lyle PLC, said that the company continues to invest in the latest technologies to further support business growth. In terms of selecting the German tech giant’s BTaas offering as part of its strategy to double down on SAP software investment, Patel maintained:

“RISE with SAP is an enabling step toward more standardised business processes, operating with greater agility and flexibility, gaining more real-time insights and helping to enhance customer collaboration and seamless end-to-end experiences.”

RISE with SAP aims to provide comprehensive support in moving Tate & Lyle’s current enterprise resource planning (ERP) infrastructure to the cloud and simplify engagement by putting SAP in charge of service-level agreements, operations, and issue resolution. The company’s preferred infrastructure provider is Microsoft Azure while Span and SAP Services and Support will be the implementation partners of the cloud transformation project.

Moreover, Tate & Lyle PLC recently established two focused, stand-alone businesses with two separate SAP software landscapes from a single, global SAP instance after the proposed sale of a controlling stake in its Primary Products business to KPS Capital Partners LP. This has provided the CIO and his team with an opportunity to migrate their infrastructure to the cloud in order to meet the separation’s requirements for speed and agility.

Steve Baird, SVP and MD of Midwest Region at SAP North America, stated:

“This action demonstrates just how focused Tate & Lyle PLC is on continuing its market leadership in the food and beverage industry. RISE with SAP and the private edition of SAP S/4HANA Cloud will help Tate & Lyle PLC accelerate its Intelligent Enterprise journey and cement its leadership position for years to come.”

Capstone Mining Modernises IT Infrastructure Through SAP RISE Program

Vancouver-headquartered Capstone Mining, a company that explores for and mines base and precious metals in Canada, US, Mexico, Chile, and Australia, has also selected RISE with SAP as part of a company-wide ERP consolidation effort. The firm is geared towards responsible mining practices, along with a sustainable approach that incorporates technological advancements. Its strategy involves organically developing its metals mining and exploration as well as acquiring companies in stable economic regions.

Raman Randhawa, CFO at Capstone Mining, said:

“As commodity prices soar, we need to keep our operations competitive to maximise our output and opportunities. Consolidating our IT platforms and moving to a more secure, low-cost cloud option will allow us to modernise and streamline our business.”

The company aims to upgrade its IT infrastructure and reduce costs by implementing SAP’s BTaaS offering. By the end of 2021, the company expects to migrate from SAP ERP Central Component (SAP ECC) to SAP S/4HANA Cloud on Microsoft Azure in a bid to improve flexibility and scalability. With the help of the SAP RISE program, Capstone Mining intends to build on the success of its legacy SAP software that was active at its Pinto Valley mine in the US. The deployment will aid in the smooth transition of SAP services across the company’s other mining operations and provide a holistic view of its entire business processes.
