Global energy and petrochemical giant Shell has signed a long-term deal with SAP, stretching through to the end of the decade, to help accelerate its transition to SAP HANA in the cloud.
As a long-term customer of SAP, Shell’s agreement will see a team of SAP experts embedded in the company to work together to extend value from its current SAP environment.
According to SAP, this collaboration will help Shell to leverage SAP technologies such as SAP Cloud powered by SAP HANA, SAP Predictive Analysis software, SAP Fiori user experience and SAP Screen Personas software to deliver “tangible business outcomes”, with the prospect of reducing total cost of ownership.
On the deal, Rob Enslin, member of the SAP Executive Board and president of global customer operations, said, “We are confident that SAP will improve Shell’s ability to tap into the agility and innovation of the cloud and drive entirely new ways of doing business, leveraging the power of SAP Cloud powered by HANA.”
