• Enable business teams to access and use ERP data through Fiori, Joule, embedded analytics, Power BI and other self-service tools, reducing reliance on SAP power users.
• Engage business stakeholders, vendors, SAP service providers and delivery partners to define requirements, resolve issues, manage performance, and ensure ERP standards, data products and AI capabilities are understood and adopted
