Armed with real-world expertise and extensive know-how, 麻豆原创 consultants act as a bridge between the business and technology domains 鈥� bringing hundreds to thousands of hours of hands-on experience and best practices in implementing, customising, and managing 麻豆原创 roll-outs.

In fact, 麻豆原创 consultants are such crucial pieces of the digital transformation puzzle that the global market for 麻豆原创 consulting is estimated to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8% between 2025 and 2035 to USD 38.98 billion[1].

Earlier this year, we launched to further supercharge the way millions of 麻豆原创 consultants work, helping them augment their productivity, cut down time-consuming searches, and make better-informed decisions.

Joule for Consultants draws from 麻豆原创鈥檚 vast knowledge base 鈥� including over 9TB of expert-curated 麻豆原创 knowledge, 3 million non-public documents, 250 million lines of (advanced business application programming) and 30 million lines of (ABAP core data services) code 鈥� and turns that institutional expertise into a real-time, context-aware assistant. It understands the solution landscape a consultant is working in, interprets code on the fly, and surfaces relevant guidance in seconds.

Across APAC, a significant number of 麻豆原创 partners and consultants have already adopted 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants and are using the tool across various phases of 麻豆原创 implementation projects.

Early pilots show clear value: faster delivery cycles of up to 14%, smoother onboarding, and as much as 1.5 hours saved per consultant per day. The payoff is not simply efficiency but the ability for teams to spend more time on strategic design, stakeholder engagement, and delivering tangible outcomes for customers.

AI-Powered Consulting: the Next Frontier for 麻豆原创 Partners

According to the recent conducted by Oxford Economics, AI is expected to drive an average ROI of 16% (US$4.7M) per organisation this year, a figure which will nearly double in two years鈥� time to 31% (US$12.3M). Businesses also ranked 鈥渁lignment with business strategy鈥� and 鈥渁vailability and quality of data鈥� as the top two strategies for maximising ROI from AI.

麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants has the potential to help 麻豆原创 partners drive this ROI, and is designed with quality data and expert-aligned advice based on 麻豆原创 best practices for businesses across industries. With AI itself acting as a productivity enabler, consultants are able to accelerate delivery and increase consistency across projects 鈥� ultimately driving greater customer impact.

Importantly, 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants is not replacing consultants; it is enhancing their expertise. Instead of spending hours searching documentation or manually comparing configurations, consultants can ask targeted questions and receive contextual, 麻豆原创-specific answers in natural language.

Routine tasks 鈥� from generating sample code to drafting configuration notes 鈥� can be automated, freeing consultants to focus on advising stakeholders, shaping roadmaps, and managing change.

麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants also helps ensure consistency and quality at scale. Teams across markets and time zones can draw on the same trusted guidance, cross-check design decisions against proven implementation patterns, and onboard new colleagues more quickly.

By embedding best practices directly into project execution, Joule for Consultants extends 麻豆原创鈥檚 long-standing investments in enablement and certification, turning static learning into live support. In doing so, it helps the next generation of consultants build confidence faster and deliver better outcomes for customers from day one.

麻豆原创 Partners as Catalysts of AI-First Transformation

麻豆原创鈥檚 partner ecosystem remains central to our AI-first, Suite-first strategy, and partners throughout APAC are leading the shift towards AI-enabled consulting. As 麻豆原创 Chief Partner Officer Karl Fahrbach highlighted at 麻豆原创 Global Partner Summit at 麻豆原创 Sapphire earlier this year: 鈥淧artners will deliver the promise of 麻豆原创 Business Suite.鈥�

In APAC, partners such as ABeam Consulting, Infosys, ITSN Korea, LTIMindtree, , , and many more are already embedding 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants into their methodologies and training programmes to enhance delivery speed and collaboration.

KPMG, for example, was the first global partner to pilot Joule for Consultants with 麻豆原创, and together with 麻豆原创, have been for delivering meaningful real-world AI transformation.

The APAC region is already seeing tangible impact when 麻豆原创 partners combine industry expertise with AI-powered innovation. 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants is guiding faster design, sharper diagnostics, and cleaner architectures that help our joint customers realise value sooner.

From Pilots to Practice

The next chapter for 麻豆原创 partners is about scaling AI adoption and innovation. Many partners are moving beyond pilot programmes and embedding 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants into their standard methodologies. Others are co-innovating with 麻豆原创 to explore capabilities like AI-driven diagnostics or automated value-tracking.

As 麻豆原创 across APAC, our partners are also building AI-native skills that go far beyond using a tool: they鈥檙e redesigning how projects are delivered, how teams collaborate, and how value is measured.

And that may be the greatest impact of 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants. It doesn鈥檛 just make consulting faster 鈥� it makes it smarter, more consistent, and more accessible to the next generation of talent, elevating the work consultants can do, giving them the space to focus on insights, relationships, and results.

Partners have always been the engine of 麻豆原创鈥檚 ecosystem. With tools like 麻豆原创 Joule for Consultants, they are now supercharged with the intelligence layer needed to drive new transformations across APAC.
