Program Benefits
The SAP PartnerEdge program is designed to deliver maximum returns for your business. Apply today to start realizing the full benefits of the program.
Service Excellence
Customers demand rapid time to value from their solutions, and the services they receive during and after implementation are critical to success.
IDC Research, Inc. predicts that over the next five years, SAP partners will generate nearly US$200 billion in net new revenues*. This rapidly expanding opportunity, of which services will represent a significant portion, is solidifying our commitment to provide tools and best practices that help you deliver best-in-class consultancy and implementation services.
Streamline implementations
Run implementation, upgrade, and software enhancement projects more efficiently using the SAP Activate innovation adoption framework. This provides pre-built implementation content, accelerators, tools, and best practices that help project teams deliver consistent and successful results across industries and customer environments.
Enable repeatable quality
Reduce escalations, minimize profit dilution, and improve customer satisfaction with our project management program. This gives you access to best practices and methodologies from SAP, as well as guidance on support, training, certification, and optimizing customer retention.
Deliver the Intelligent Enterprise
Help your customers thrive in the next era of digital transformation using our partner hub for the Intelligent Enterprise. Our partner-specific tools and resources help you help your customers achieve game-changing results and invent new business models to drive a next-generation value economy.
Help customers transition to SAP S/4HANA
Access a comprehensive portfolio of scalable, efficient, and automated tools, programs, and methodologies that simplify the process of upgrading to SAP S/4HANA – our intelligent ERP solution. Consulting and implementation services for upgrades ensure rapid time to value and minimize disruption and risk for customers, while representing a huge opportunity for partners.
Solution Innovation
Our business solution portfolio is comprehensive, but customers still have unique business requirements that represent gaps that need to be filled.
Adding your own intellectual property (IP) is one of the largest opportunities facing partners today. Regardless of partner type, many customers’ cloud solutions benefit from extended functionality that can only be provided through deep expertise in a given industry or line of business. By adding your IP to SAP solutions, you can create faster time-to-value for customers and help them realize greater ROI on their solution investment.
Co-innovation with SAP
Co-innovation with SAP is just one of the services offered by our Partner Innovation Lifecycle Services team. Simply put, it’s a comprehensive program of guided services that are designed to help you productize and take your idea to market. You can walk in with an idea and walk out with a fully-certified and market-ready solution.
Packaged solutions
You can build integrated solutions that combine SAP market-leading software and innovations with industry or line-of-business expertise, specialized services, customizations, configurations, or applications. Built, sold, and supported by SAP partners, these solutions offer rapid time-to-value, low risk, and high predictability.
Our mission is to help customers solve complex problems through innovation. The days of a closed SAP are long behind us and our open application programming interfaces (APIs) allow partners to innovate and extend SAP solutions and technology platforms to help customers realize an intelligent enterprise. In turn, this helps customers do more with less, empower employees through process automation, and delivers a best-in-class customer experience by enabling a proactive approach to customer service. SAP’s partners are uniquely positioned to help customers achieve game-changing results, and this type of diversification can only help you achieve stronger growth.
