SAP’s Business Network North Star vision is to become a modern, many to many network, connecting people, enterprises and business processes intelligently to foster collaboration and grow business
sustainably. As the world’s largest business-to-business collaboration platform, SAP Business Network facilitates over $5.3 trillion in commerce annually across more than 746 million transactions, capturing a unified, end-to-end view of spend. Over the next few years, we are building a collaboration application platform for trading partners (buyers and sellers) which offers:
• One common directory of robust trading partner data… from who you are and what you sell, to all
your daily transactions to keep your business running.
• A central place that adapts to you and your trading partner needs… find, be found, and transact
seamlessly.
• And the ability to connect and collaborate on any business process. The ones you have today and
how your business will evolve.
How we will drive value through the network is to:
• Improve efficiency… help trading partners seamlessly communicate and transact.
• Grow outcomes… help trading partners grow their business by finding new customers or suppliers.
• Increase resiliency… counter disruption by improving supply chain transparency and mitigating risk.
