SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition helps plan and control production processes – from engineering to planning and operations.
Manufacturing capabilities enabled through SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition

Leveling up productivity, efficiency, and innovations

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Private Edition helps manage production processes and facilitate informed decision-making with built-in capabilities, including AI, simulations, and real-time data.

  • Manage core production planning and control (PP), such as engineering, planning, and operations

  • Optimize production planning and detailed scheduling (PPDS) across supply chain operations

  • Improve outcomes with advanced production engineering and operations (PEO)

  • Embed quality management (QM) into business processes to deliver the best-possible products
