SAP Supply-Chain Challenges We Solve

Pain Point
Typical Symptoms
Micro-GCC Fix
Inaccurate Forecasts
Excess stock in ECC MM, fire-fighting MRP
IBP + ML demand models, nightly CI/CD retrain
Custom-Code Drag
Z objects break during S/4 upgrades
SteadyRabbit ABAP Analyzer → clone removal + ATC gates
Warehouse Gridlock
Slow RF scans, radio-silence events
EWM RF optimisation, Fiori mobile pick/put apps
IoT Device Sprawl
Sensor drift, OPC-UA dead nodes
BTP IoT Service + OTA firmware, MQTT heartbeat alerts
KPI Blind Spots
OTIF lag reports; OEE in Excel
SteadCAST live lead-indicators in SAC/Looker

Outcome: Smoother flows, leaner inventory, auditors out before lunch.

Core SAP Solution Set

IBP Demand-Planning Acceleration

  • Multi-factor ML models blend ECC sales orders, promotion, weather & commodity data
  • “What-if” simulator for planners—SKU impact in < 2 s
  • MLflow/ABAP CDS pipelines → nightly retrain & MAPE alerts

Proof: CPG client lifted forecast accuracy 15 %; unit-fill 97 %.

See AI & ML Solutions

EWM / TM / Yard Optimisation

  • RF latency tuning, async PUT/GR Fiori tasks < 300 ms
  • Slotting, path & carrier sequencing algorithms in CAP on BTP
  • GS1/EPCIS events stream to Snowflake for real-time dashboards

Proof: 3PL cut picking time 25 %, shipping errors 40 %.

Explore Product Engineering Studio

Predictive-Maintenance IoT for SAP DMC

  • Edge ingestion: MQTT → BTP Event Mesh → DMC OData
  • TensorFlow Lite anomaly detection on ARM/PLC gateways
  • TPM-based certs, OTA signed firmware, SBOM per image

Proof: Multi-plant client saw unplanned downtime drop 12 %; ROI 9 m.

See Dedicated Squads

Custom-Code & S/4HANA Modernisation

  • Static clone scanner classifies 1 M+ lines/hr; tiered remediation plan
  • CAP & RAP microservices replace classic BAPI spaghetti
  • Blue-green ATC + regression → 0 unplanned production downtime

Proof: Manufacturing SaaS launched multi-tenant code-analysis tool on schedule.

Why Ops & IT Leaders Pick Micro-GCC Squads

Gemba Walk
kickoff

Squad Lead spends 3-5 days on the line, mapping real material flow.

Pre-wired OTIF, OEE & GS1 templates

Tasks appear in Jira, KPIs render in SAC.

Flex SAP & IoT
bench

ABAPers, BTP devs, ML engineers join in < 48 h.

Shift-Left safety & quality

SBOM, SAST/DAST and ISO 9001 docs baked into pipeline.

Buffer bench funded by us

Attrition never touches sprint velocity.

Outcome: Forecast swings absorbed, plants run lean, audits breeze by.
