Navigating AI With Lessons From ERP And Cloud As organizations increasingly turn to Artificial Intelligence (AI) to revolutionize their operations, the journey from conceptualization to implementation presents challenges reminiscent of past technological adoptions, such as ERP systems and cloud deployments. The parallels are striking, offering valuable lessons for businesses navigating the AI landscape.

AI shouldn't be something that's feared, but embraced. An efficient business means changing and adapting to new technologies: https://lnkd.in/eKT6stZA via @sfexaminer #AI #Technology #Business #ERP #Cloud #LinkedIn Acumatica D&A Business Management Solutions

#GenerativeAI can shrink the digital divide, empower humans and forge new collaboration frontiers. An interesting article by our CEO Ravi Kumar S, and Andreea Roberts, Vice President of Marketing, elucidates how by removing barriers to #insights and #innovation, #AI empowers less digitally mature organizations to #transform their #servicesfaster, operate more efficiently, and enhance the value they deliver.

Last fall in ERP News, Lemongrass CIO, Kausik Chaudhuri, noted that enterprises often blindly apply untested new technologies to their business practices with the expectation of immediate cost reduction and/or an increase in product and service output. Here, he reminds enterprises to evaluate emerging technologies critically before deployment, and if the technology is in place but not working, it's more cost-effective to pull the plug sooner rather than later. #ML #ERP #Cloud #AI

Maximize the Potential of Artificial Intelligence for Installed Base Customers AI is in everyone's head and of course customers would like to benefit from it as well in grown landscapes. Key to success is (very obviously and not surprisingly) standardization: to take full advantage of #AI, companies should standardize their systems as much as possible. A "clean core" facilitates the integration and use of AI solutions. The closer your system is to the standard, the better you can use the existing AI functions. But, how to get there and where to find help from SAP?   New implementation and transformation: With a new implementation, you have the option of keeping your system "clean" from the outset. For existing systems, it is important to become as clean as possible in order to maximize connectivity and the use of AI. But not always customers have the ability, willingness and business support for a new implementation. So, how to effectively clean a system that is coming from a system conversion. Here #RISE with SAP can come into the picture. With the migration and modernization offerings of RISE with SAP we take customers by the hand and lead them actively through the steps to come to a clean core, no matter if coming in with an old ECC system or already with an S/4HANA system. How? With the clean core dashboard, customers get a KPI driven insight on where they are with regards to clean core. With the Enterprise architecture support, we help them to navigate into a clean and lean system setup. Cloud ALM and the connected quality gates for the implementation identify the important milestones on the way to the clean and lean implementation. Last but not least, the new #Joule Consultant "knows all answers" and the AI supported code generation will help to reduce old, non-conform custom code. In addition, our valued Partners have the opportunity to benefit significantly. If a lot of custom code is available, partners can help to define, develop or adapt data models. This ensures that business AI expertise is used effectively.   At the #SAPPHIRE conference, SAP showed how important it is to take system transformation seriously. The possibilities offered by AI are immense, but to fully exploit them, systems need to be kept as standardized and clean as possible.

Not a day goes by where I don't talk/hear/debate/read about Artificial Intelligence. You, too? Even though the topic feels so nascent, the challenges organizations are experiencing around AI feel strangely familiar --- challenges with adoption, challenges with managing risks, challenges with data and governance. As organizations increasingly turn to AI to transform their operations, the journey from conceptualization to implementation presents challenges reminiscent of past technological adoptions, such as ERP systems and cloud deployments. The parallels are striking. Read on for some valuable lessons from the past to help businesses navigate this novel AI landscape.
