Retailers Must Prioritize Becoming an SAP Intelligent Enterprise

If there is one sector that has had to step up in the name of digital transformation in the past few years, it’s the Retail Industry. Already faced with multitudes of new channels, technologies, and other disruptors, the industry saw customer behavior shift dramatically during the last two years. As if that wasn’t enough, the global pandemic forced retailers to change not just products and services, but also forced the adaptation of business and operating models to meet changing customer shopping demands.

And the revolution isn’t slowing down. Experts believe that retailers that are ready and able to harness the power of technology and data will be at the forefront of the industry for years to come.

In Retailers Must Prioritize Becoming an SAP Intelligent Enterprise — done in partnership with SAP and Intel — we explore why the future of the Retail Industry lies in the SAP Intelligent Enterprise strategy, the technologies that power intelligent enterprises, and the steps organizations can take today to begin their transformation.

In this brief you’ll learn:

  • The state of the Retail Industry
  • Common challenges faced by retailers
  • An overview of the Intelligent Enterprise suite, including the benefits of the strategy
  • Real world examples of organizations that have successfully transformed to intelligent enterprises
  • Recommendations for future transformations

The retail marketplace of today is completely different than it was just five years ago and it’s continuing to change and evolve at a rapid pace. Today’s customer is fully in control of the buying process, with information readily available at their fingertips. By working to become an intelligent enterprise using SAP technologies powered by Intel, an organization’s transformation journey can begin in a quick and painless manner and proceed at their own, individual pace.

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
