The real-time opportunity
Customer individualization, new mobile trends, new technology
developments, and increasing regulatory requirements
necessitate faster reaction times from automotive companies
and lead to products with more and more variations, higher
technical complexity, and larger data volume. This leads in turn
to greater operational risk that must be managed.

Continuous product and service innovation Business value for project management (SAP Portfolio and Project Management)
Project members experience long
waiting times when starting the
project and task dashboards. This
reduces user productivity when
working on several projects and tasks
across projects
Updates on multiple tasks are
inefficient and time-consuming as
project team members confirm tasks
one by one to reduce waiting times
Searching for documents across
projects takes a very long time for
large portfolio of projects.
The process of finding projects,
tasks and phases by responsible
project member is slow
Faster access to my tasks, my
projects
Accelerated access to project, task,
and checklist items dashboards
Project team members enabled to
confirm times, status, and dates and
attach documents for several tasks at
once

Continuous product and service innovation Business value for project management (project system)
Long wait and locking times along
business processes hinder project
execution and impact flexibility to
react on deviations
User acceptance is reduced due to
affected usability in handling large
project data
Reduced waiting and locking times of
critical transactions along the end-to-
end process, resulting into higher
process efficiency and improved
employee productivity
Increase user productivity
and end-to-end
process efficiency
10%
Improve transparency and
decision support to
take appropriate
corrective measures
in time
10%
Real-time analysis of high volumes
of data for complex, long-lasting
projects or cross-project monitoring
is challenging due to high data
volumes
Due to missing 360-degree real-time
transparency across applications
deviations in costs, time, resources,
or quality are seen too late in the
process
Acceleration of project info system reporting and new project line-item reporting delivering faster insights
Early insight in deviations and risks enabling timely corrective measures by highlighting deviations in real time
Planned: Project execution cockpit enabling project managers as well as project employees to analyze status and progress of one or multiple projects in execution from an end-to-end perspective at maximum speed with real-time data, and to derive and execute actions wherever applicable
KPI improvements are high-level estimates and will have to be validated for each customer situation.

Customer service, support, and warranty management Business value for contact management with interaction center
To successfully resolve customer
issues, companies must be able to
quickly locate the right experts or
resources within the organization,
whether those experts reside inside
the contact center or elsewhere
