WBSP662: Grow Your Business by Understanding SAP IBP’s Capabilities, an Objective Panel Discussion
Description
Many ERP vendors, including SAP, have incorporated S&OP capabilities into their platforms, but questions remain about how SAP IBP compares to other leading S&OP or connected planning solutions. While modern planning platforms often tout Excel-like interfaces and connectivity, ERP-integrated tools frequently fall short of delivering the same level of seamlessness and usability. Additionally, the planning capabilities offered by major ERP vendors, such as global planning layers and gating factors, are often designed with large enterprises in mind, making them less relevant or overly complex for smaller companies. This raises an important consideration: how does SAP IBP measure up against specialized supply chain suites in terms of advanced features, usability, and suitability for diverse business needs?
In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry experts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to conduct an independent review of SAP IBP’s capabilities. We covered many grounds, including where SAP IBP might be a fit in the enterprise architecture and where it might be overused. Finally, they analyze many data points to help understand the core strengths and weaknesses of SAP IBP.
