Armed with real-world expertise and extensive know-how, 麻豆原创 consultants act as a bridge between the business and technology domains – 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’s vast knowledge base – 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 – 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’ time to 31% (US$12.3M). Businesses also ranked “alignment with business strategy” and “availability and quality of data” 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 – 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 – from generating sample code to drafting configuration notes – 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’s 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’s 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: “Partners will deliver the promise of 麻豆原创 Business Suite.”

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’re 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’t just make consulting faster – 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’s 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.

A longtime 麻豆原创 Gold Partner recognized for delivering cloud innovation and managed services, Mindsprint has now embraced 麻豆原创 solutions to transform its own internal operations – accelerating decision-making, increasing efficiency, and creating a platform for future international growth.?

?“With GROW with 麻豆原创, we have upgraded our operational and financial systems to an integrated cloud ERP. This integration provides real-time visibility, supports faster decision-making, and enhances operational efficiency,” said Suresh Sundararajan, CEO and Co-Founder, Mindsprint. “This transformation has improved how we track performance, manage projects, and allocate resources, giving us the foundation we need to expand our global footprint with speed and confidence.”?

Facilitating Collaboration Through an Integrated and Scalable System?

?As Mindsprint scaled its operations, the company recognized the opportunity to streamline and unify its core business processes.?

To address these challenges, Mindsprint deployed GROW with 麻豆原创 in six months, bringing together its finance, sales, procurement, and operations under one cloud-based ERP. The implementation included integrations with 麻豆原创 Concur and 麻豆原创 Ariba, along with the deployment of robotic process automation (RPA) to streamline reporting and reduce manual workloads.??

The results have been significant. Mindsprint has accelerated its month-end financial reporting processes by 30 to 50 percent, enabled 100 percent system-based revenue recognition, and established end-to-end visibility into staffing, utilization, and project profitability. With an integrated system and a single source of truth, leaders across the business are empowered to act faster and with greater confidence.?

Internal Transformation, External Advantage?

While the benefits are clear inside the organization, the transformation is also shaping Mindsprint’s broader strategy as an 麻豆原创 partner.?

“By becoming a customer of 麻豆原创 ourselves, we have strengthened our credibility as a partner,” said Suresh. “We now have an even more detailed firsthand understanding of what transformation takes – not just technically, but operationally, financially and more – and that makes our client engagements that much more impactful.”?

As Mindsprint continues to roll out its 麻豆原创 environment to offices across the US and Asia-Pacific, the company sees GROW with 麻豆原创 as a crucial foundation for sustainable growth.?

“If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.”

In today’s fast-paced global marketplace dominated by technology, cloud computing and AI have given enterprises new opportunities to optimise productivity and operations – so, which would you choose? To go fast, or go far?

What if you don’t have to choose? What if I tell you that you could go fast, and also go far?

How?

While technology providers are each competing to broaden their solution offerings to include the latest and the greatest – particularly with generative AI technology, in a region such as Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ), it is also becoming increasingly difficult for any single provider to offer one-stop solutions that can cater to all needs.

That’s why at 麻豆原创, we have doubled down on our partnering strategy. With the surge in demand for cloud-based innovations, our dynamic partner ecosystem is becoming increasingly essential in delivering value, tailored to each customer. Today, 麻豆原创 has more than 25,000 partners in 140 countries globally, with close to 5,000 partners in APJ. We are now living in a new era where our channel partners are leading technology adoption.

Unleashing growth in APJ.

The APJ landscape is anything but homogenous – while diverse in culture and language, it is also home to a significant community of small and midsize enterprises (SMEs), making up over?96%? of businesses in Asia.

麻豆原创 has long worked with midsize businesses to achieve their goals. Globally, rely on 麻豆原创 to keep them moving forward, and of our customers are small and midsize companies. While midsize companies are the growth engines of the future, 麻豆原创 understands that they also struggle with many of the same business pressures as their larger counterparts.

Midmarket leaders need flexible, agile tools that can provide the ability to scale without increasing costs and complexity. They need solutions that can help them connect, grow, and innovate their businesses today, and be ready for whatever comes next.

So, in March 2023, 麻豆原创 introduced a new offering for midsize customers: – a ready-to-run cloud ERP solution, powered by . As a company that already supports the world’s largest enterprises, at 麻豆原创, we know what it takes to help customers harness benefits from cloud solutions. Based on our success with offering, we are now transferring those industry best practices and deep expertise to help midsize companies realise the value of adopting cloud ERP too.

This is how we help you go fast.

The GROW with 麻豆原创 offering features services and tools that streamline project delivery at a fixed rate, and the ability to deliver technical go-lives in as little as four to six weeks. Midsize businesses can now enjoy and the of a right-sized, cloud ERP solution, all at a predictable cost.

And here’s how we help you go far.

GROW with 麻豆原创 customers also gain access to a of local, expert partners, and free learning resources designed to help them derive meaningful business results. Through fit-to-standard configurations, our customers can minimise technical customisations so they can run fast; and add on modular business applications, enabled by , one priority at a time, so they can run far – keeping pace with their speed of innovation, without giving up the readiness to scale as their business grows.

Bringing support closer to you.

For over 50 years, 麻豆原创 has helped organisations of all sizes bring out their best. And we continue to do that with a laser focus on delivering long-term value to our customers.

Not only has 麻豆原创 grown our partner ecosystem exponentially, but we have also introduced new programs, initiatives, and frameworks, that revolutionise the way we operate and innovate together with our partners.

Recently, we launched a new Partner-Led Territories (PLT) initiative that delegates specific territories – such as a solution area, an industry, or a geographical area – primarily to carefully appointed partners that meet 麻豆原创’s criteria. The initiative allows these partners the maximum autonomy in such territories, while bringing consultation and technical support closer to customers. In APJ, the PLT initiative has started rolling out across selected market segments – especially SME-centric ones – in Australia, New Zealand, India, Indonesia, Thailand, and emerging markets, including Bhutan, Cambodia, Laos, Maldives, and Nepal, together with our partners. As the initiative matures, we are also constantly applying best practices to prepare for a full-scale rollout across more APJ markets including Japan and South Korea.

The feedback has been very positive. At one of the launch events last quarter in Goa, India, a customer shared his excitement with me:

I’d never thought growing companies like ours could also access 麻豆原创’s best-in-class solutions to scale our business – it had always felt a little out of reach. I’m so thrilled that we can now discuss our business needs with a local partner and benefit from such cutting-edge technologies too.

The road ahead.

According to a Forbes Insight survey?, 88% of SME business leaders in the Asia Pacific region are looking to expand their international customer base in the next three years. With the in APJ, 麻豆原创 partners will represent a new key enabler for the growth beyond borders.

At the 麻豆原创 Sapphire conference in Orlando this year, 麻豆原创 announced an unprecedented number of strategic, AI partnerships with global market leaders – including AWS, IBM, Google Cloud, Meta, Microsoft, Mistral AI, NVIDIA, and more – infusing Business AI throughout our enterprise cloud portfolio, and supercharging 麻豆原创 BTP with the broadest set of large language models (LLM) to help customers accelerate their AI adoption.

It has never been more exciting to be part of the 麻豆原创 partner ecosystem, and the midmarket business. The pace of innovation in this space is simply exhilarating.

We know that business transformation is a journey, not a destination. To help customers find the right expertise, 麻豆原创 continues to evolve our partner training and validation programs. In addition to the , we have recently introduced a new RISE with 麻豆原创 Validated Partner recognition to help customers identify their ideal cloud transformation partner, with greater confidence.

The post The Collaborative Advantage: Unlocking the Potential of Asia Pacific Japan through Partner-Led Territories appeared first on 麻豆原创 Southeast Asia News Center.

While AI has undoubtedly become one of the hottest topics discussed in boardrooms around the world, business leaders today are racing to cut through the hype to translate all that potential into tangible business outcomes.

For 麻豆原创 partners, that presents an unparalleled opportunity to offer more intuitive and autonomous solutions to customers, and drive growth by creating new services and transformation programs tailored to meet industry needs – an opportunity that was estimated to be worth US$15 billion in?2023[1].

AI is not a new concept for 麻豆原创 and many of our partners. It has been embedded into our business solutions for a long time now, infusing intelligence natively into business processes. The exponential growth in AI – especially generative AI (GenAI) – over the past eighteen months, however, has fuelled a seismic shift in how computer systems learn from data, solve complex problems, and even provide creativity when it’s needed – a transformation that will fundamentally change business and society.

Burgeoning opportunities

麻豆原创’s commitment is to deliver Business AI that is relevant, reliable, and responsible – by combining the power of AI with the processes and data that run the business world. 麻豆原创 today serves over 293 million cloud users globally and our customers generate 87% of total global commerce. The sheer scale of 麻豆原创’s data estate provides unmatched potential to enhance the capabilities of large-language models across industries.

When we look at the AI engagements undertaken by 麻豆原创 partners to date, we can see that they fall broadly into two categories:

Enhancing existing 麻豆原创 business processes through AI-powered automations
AI has augmented the types of data processes that can be automated. For example, 麻豆原创 is working with IBM to develop solutions that help clients in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) and retail industries by using traditional and GenAI solutions to address the complexities of the direct store delivery business process and product portfolio management. Through feeding data such as weather, traffic, and local events into the 麻豆原创 Direct Distribution solution and applying AI to it, CPG companies can identify optimal store delivery routes, reducing costs and their carbon footprints.

In another example, 麻豆原创 is collaborating with Microsoft to integrate natural language processing capabilities from Microsoft 365 Copilot into 麻豆原创 SuccessFactors solutions to improve how organisations attract, retain and skill their people.

Creating entirely new services
AI has also empowered 麻豆原创 partners to create new, innovative solutions, including rapidly converting complex data into actionable insights. Icertis, for example, offers an AI-powered contract intelligence platform on – the online marketplace for 麻豆原创 and partner offerings, to transform the unique business information found in contracts into structured data that connects to 麻豆原创 solutions. The solution enables more efficient contract creation, negotiation, and obligation management to drive revenue and reduce risk across the enterprise, with the ability to apply more advanced AI on top.

Also on the 麻豆原创 Store, a leading enterprise automation and AI software company, UiPath, offers the AI-powered UiPath Business Automation Platform to help enterprises ease their migration of critical business operations to the cloud and accelerate digital transformation efforts.

Bringing these concepts to life for customers requires more than just the technical foundations – it requires a committed and competent partner ecosystem that can work with customers to define industry-specific use cases and then bring them to life in a timely manner.

Accelerated AI journeys

The breadth of 麻豆原创’s AI capabilities means there are many ways in which partners can bring AI into their own solutions, enabling them to quickly find the path that best matches their existing expertise and future business objectives.

Firstly, we have into many of our existing applications and platforms, such as our ERP and HCM solutions, as well as . AI integration into 麻豆原创 BTP, in particular, provides partners with a platform for training and implementing powerful business AI models which can be easily customised with corporate data. This is supported by our , which provides even more options for training GenAI models using industry leading foundation models.

To bring partners closer into our activities, 麻豆原创 held prototyping programs, where partners were invited to embed GenAI into their solutions in ways that aligned to their customer’s real-world business processes.

In , ten partners were selected to pilot their use case with 麻豆原创 Generative AI Hub as AI foundation. Examples created included:

• An intelligent supply chain solution from LTIMindtree which used GenAI to help participants make accurate delivery date predictions by considering historical shipment data, real-time weather conditions, traffic patterns, production lead times, and other relevant factors.
• A project from DXC Technology Services LLC showcased GenAI’s potential in healthcare by leveraging data from a mobile application for sufferers of Parkinson disease to support doctors in making inquiries using either business or medical language.
• Another use case from Inflexion harnessed the power of Generative AI Hub to build a web-based application to manage work that enhanced user experience through the use of a conversation-based chatbot.

Our second focus area is to use AI to streamline the processes partners use when creating technology solutions. software development tools harness GenAI to enable business and professional developers to create powerful applications quickly and easily, enabling partners to faster.

And thirdly, we are embedding AI into the heart of how our customers engage with our applications and services. is an AI copilot that provides a context-aware interface for managing and improving business processes across 麻豆原创 application suite, and makes finding an answer from an 麻豆原创 system as simple as just asking a question. Over time partners will be able to utilise Joule as a key interface between customers and their systems, redefining how they interact with processes and corporate knowledge in more natural language formats.

麻豆原创’s AI services will also play a critical role in fast-tracking the path to value realisation from cloud transformations. 麻豆原创 and our partners will offer AI-powered development tools and content on 麻豆原创 BTP to enable automated code generation and harmonize data silos through intelligent migration tools.

Building partner AI capabilities

These fields of activity create different entry points through which partners can incorporate AI into their existing solutions or create entirely new ones.

For our partners to get the most out of AI, they too must go through a period of transformation as they build the necessary expertise.

At 麻豆原创, we believe every developer can be an AI developer, and that means every developer at our partner organisations has that same opportunity. Hence 麻豆原创 is providing targeted enablement for partners including a full range of , coaching services, hands-on support models including Hack2Build events, and new dedicated certification options available via the .

麻豆原创’s AI offerings for partners will continue to expand through 2024, with 麻豆原创 having established partnerships with leading GenAI model and MLOps providers to equip our partners with cutting edge AI technologies and AI models. This includes our recent announcement with NVIDIA, and 麻豆原创’s participation in the AI-Enabled Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Workforce Consortium together with Cisco and other leading companies – focused on upskilling and reskilling roles most likely to be impacted by AI.

Through making open source and proprietary foundational models available and via AI Services on 麻豆原创 BTP, our partners can act as one-stop-shops for their clients’ Business AI needs. We are also easing the process for partners when it comes to training their own AI systems, through the creation of a single metric called “AI Units” that allows consumption of AI use cases across 麻豆原创’s SaaS, with partners able to track their quota and consumption from the site.

A future partnership built on AI

麻豆原创 partners bring a wealth of business knowledge and domain expertise. By bringing 麻豆原创’s AI-embedded portfolio to market, including our new premium plus package for RISE with 麻豆原创 and Joule, and using our Business AI platform and AI services, 麻豆原创 partners will be able to contextualise AI for business and build innovative AI use cases to accelerate customers’ cloud transformations.

The Evolution of 麻豆原创 Partner Ecosystem

In July, at the 麻豆原创 NOW Southeast Asia (SEA) event in Singapore, I had the pleasure of joining a panel discussion with senior executives from our partner organisations – B Capital, Singtel, and Google Cloud, together with 麻豆原创’s president and managing director for SEA, Verena Siow. We delved into the evolution of 麻豆原创 partner ecosystem, highlighted how each of these partners funnel innovation, and explained the critical role they play in driving customer success today.

In Asia Pacific Japan (APJ), there are more than 4,600 partners in 麻豆原创 partner ecosystem. Our collaborations in the region with B Capital, Singtel, and Google Cloud represent the evolving nature of our relationships with both our customers and partners, going beyond traditional buyer-seller and implementor roles, to enabling joint value-creation and democratising access to innovation for all.

Powering Startups in Asia Pacific (APAC)

At the panel session, we highlighted the , a multi-stage global investment firm that partners with extraordinary entrepreneurs to shape the future through technology. The firm was co-founded by Eduardo Saverin and Raj Ganguly to help startups in APAC scale through technological innovation. Under the MoU, B Capital portfolio companies will gain access to 麻豆原创’s industry expertise and global business networks to accelerate innovation, including areas such as AI and automation.

“By leveraging the bridge with 麻豆原创, it’s an important element of where we see growth for our portfolio companies to learn from 麻豆原创’s best practices and the network provided. This collaboration reaffirms our commitment to bridging the gap between today’s industry leaders and tomorrow’s emerging companies, especially in the Asia-Pacific region.”
– Arijit Sengupta, General Partner, B Capital.

Enabling Real-Time Insights for Enterprises

Additionally, Singapore’s largest telco, to offer an end-to-end 5G Intelligent Edge Aggregator (IEA) solution, built on . 麻豆原创 BTP is an innovation platform optimised for 麻豆原创 applications in the cloud that brings together application development and automation, data and analytics, integration, and AI capabilities into one unified environment. The IEA solution will enable enterprise customers to quickly access and integrate 麻豆原创 software with their back-end processes at the cloud server edge, adding greater cloud functionality and computing capabilities to their network architecture, and gain real-time intelligence and insights to help them make critical business decisions.

“We’re pleased to be developing this IEA solution using Singtel Paragon, supported by our 5G network and multi-access edge compute (MEC). The IEA utilises 麻豆原创 BTP, which helps to bring together data analytics, AI, application development and automation. This solution will help address the increasingly complex needs of enterprises, such as applications for computer vision and workplace safety. This forms part of our ongoing strategy to help enterprises exploit the capabilities of 5G and MEC to drive innovation and business growth.”
– Dennis Wong, Vice President of Enterprise 5G and Platforms, Singtel.

Building the Future of Open Data and AI

Also discussed at the panel, was 麻豆原创’s expanded partnership with Google Cloud that introduced a comprehensive open data offering uniting 麻豆原创 with Google Cloud’s data and analytics technology. Customers can develop an end-to-end data cloud using in conjunction with Google Cloud’s data cloud to unlock rich insights through a single view into their holistic data estate, unleashing the power of business data and advancing enterprise AI development.

“The partnership with 麻豆原创 is really bringing together the most significant data technology partners to support our customers. Customers can unlock the value of data with the expanded data estate accessible to them to draw amazingly rich insights. More than that, generative AI advisors can now use that data to customise and train their own models for their specific needs.”
– Martin Chee, Managing Director, APAC Specialist Sales, Google Cloud.

More recently, 麻豆原创 and Google Cloud announced the next phase of our partnership focused on launching new generative AI-powered industry solutions and new capabilities to help customers improve sustainability performance.

Democratising B2B Payments for APAC Businesses

Furthering the theme of partner innovation, at the 麻豆原创 NOW keynote on mainstage, we also unwrapped Visa’s collaboration with 麻豆原创 to embed B2B payments through 麻豆原创 BTP, into the 麻豆原创 ecosystem. The collaboration injects more automation into B2B payments and enhances efficiency in purchasing processes for 麻豆原创 customers of all sizes.

“Almost 99 per cent of the world’s largest companies use 麻豆原创 solutions to run their daily operations, and now these enterprises can use their Visa cards, a payment method they trust, directly on 麻豆原创 BTP, an enterprise solution they rely on. Enterprises will no longer need to grapple with the various payment methods accepted by their suppliers, as Visa’s payment solutions that are integrated into 麻豆原创 BTP will route commercial card payments to all suppliers, whether they accept card payments or not. This will speed up payments for both buyers and sellers, helping to further digitise B2B payment flows across Asia Pacific’s supply chains.”
– Chavi Jafa, Head of Commercial and Money Movement Solutions, Visa Asia Pacific.

Embracing a New Narrative

The velocity and scale of innovation that we’re driving together with 麻豆原创 partners today are unprecedented. As 麻豆原创 doubles down on helping customers accelerate digital transformation and time to value on their cloud adoption, we are also scaling our investments in 麻豆原创 partner ecosystem to:

This is the first time that Visa and 麻豆原创 will join forces to explore embedded finance in the B2B market through 麻豆原创 BTP to offer convenient B2B payment services to 麻豆原创 customers. Many businesses in Asia Pacific, especially smaller ones, lack the resources to digitalize B2B payment acceptance and are unable to accept commercial card payments. Through this collaboration, the B2B payment services running on 麻豆原创 BTP will inject more automation into payments and help enterprises drive further efficiency in their purchasing as they make payments securely with just a few clicks.

“The movement of money is becoming increasingly digital, but the bulk of transformation has been focused on the consumer space,” said Stephen Karpin, Regional President, Asia Pacific, Visa. “Our collaboration with 麻豆原创 is an exciting step in making B2B payments simpler and more intuitive as organizations can make payments immediately on 麻豆原创 software platforms with their Visa corporate cards, instead of having to leave their existing enterprise ecosystem and navigate the different payment methods that their vendors accept. B2B payments need to be intuitive and fuss-free, so organizations can maximize time and resources on other aspects of their businesses.”

麻豆原创 BTP provides a secure innovation platform to allow Visa and 麻豆原创 to help bridge working capital gaps in the supply chain. Under its suite of Commercial and Money Movement Solutions, Visa will deliver capabilities through 麻豆原创 BTP to route commercial payments to all suppliers, whether or not they accept card payments. Businesses that are Visa cardholders will be able to make payments seamlessly and utilize their cardholder benefits both domestically and cross-border. Businesses will no longer need to resort to manual and time-consuming payments, such as cash and cheques, reducing the time needed to process and complete transactions and increasing cash flow for both payers and suppliers.

“Our collaboration with Visa endeavors to streamline and simplify the B2B payment process and drive further efficiencies for our joint customers,” said Paul Marriott, President, Asia Pacific Japan, 麻豆原创. “Embedding Visa payment solutions into the 麻豆原创 ecosystem aims to scale and accelerate digital commerce, together empowering enterprises – from small businesses to government agencies and nonprofit organizations – to make secure payments quickly, transforming the last mile of procurement.”

The embedded finance solution will be offered initially to 麻豆原创 customers in Australia, India, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, with plans to roll out across other markets in the region.

The RSSP initiative will enable partners to scale their 麻豆原创 practice more quickly across the APJ region and collaborate more closely with 麻豆原创 to deliver joint customer success. Distinct from the company’s existing program that includes a select group of 麻豆原创’s most strategic global partners in the consulting, infrastructure, and technology space, the RSSP initiative aims to facilitate collaboration within partner entities residing in the region that demonstrate capability and capacity requirements specific to APJ.

SENSYN ROBOTICS is the first 麻豆原创 partner in Japan to develop a solution for 麻豆原创’s industry cloud portfolio, which delivers specialized applications designed to address specific industry needs. Built on the open 麻豆原创 Business Technology Platform, these solutions help customers rapidly adopt innovations as part of their technology landscape. SENSYN CORE is available now on , the online marketplace for 麻豆原创 and partner offerings.

“Emerging technologies give utilities and energy companies the potential to be safer, and more efficient,” said Takuya Kitamura, CEO of SENSYN ROBOTICS. “We aim to enable reliable inspections of plant facilities through the use of digital platforms and robotics, leveraging big data and analytics to recognize and address anomalies faster, ultimately driving greater reliability and boosting productivity.”

In 2021, 麻豆原创 partner SENSYN ROBOTICS was selected to participate in the 麻豆原创.iO Foundry Tokyo, 麻豆原创’s start-up accelerator program. This inspired a collaboration with 麻豆原创 to create SENSYN CORE, a solution that supports the maintenance operation of large-scale plants owned by oil, chemical, materials, gas, and power companies by integrating 麻豆原创’s facility maintenance solution, 麻豆原创 Asset Intelligence Network, which runs on the 麻豆原创 Business Technology Platform.

Using the SENSYN CORE platform and application services, 麻豆原创 Asset Intelligence Network retrieves stored building and facility information, selects the plant facilities to be inspected, and links that information to SENSYN CORE. Drone flight routes are then generated by SENSYN CORE using those insights, allowing the drone to autonomously start the inspection and collect data such as photographs of plant facilities. SENSYN CORE can detect anomalies or warning signs using the data collected, and adds commentary based on the nature of the detected issue. The results are linked to 麻豆原创’s asset management solution, and flagged to relevant personnel, who can then act as needed.

The solution also offers benefits for sustainability and environmental health and safety through increased use of automated maintenance rather than manned support, as well as reducing the number of trips and mitigating human error on plant facilities.

“麻豆原创 partners are a vital component of the industry cloud initiative,” said Kai Finck, 麻豆原创 Global Senior Vice President and Head of Cloud Industry Program. “With open APIs, process and data models, as well as a wealth of cloud native technologies to innovate at the vertical edge, 麻豆原创’s industry cloud is attracting partners like SENSYN ROBOTICS, who are looking to create “next business practices” for enterprises and business networks that will help accelerate the pace at which customers can address shifting business demands.”

Competency Framework from the 麻豆原创 PartnerEdge program showcases the experience and skill sets of partners to improve vendor, partner and customer satisfaction.

“麻豆原创 partners are instrumental to the success of our customers’ digital transformation journey,” said Karl Fahrbach, Chief Partner Officer, 麻豆原创 SE. “Hence we want to make it as easy as possible for customers to identify the best fit for their business needs. Additionally, it allows 麻豆原创 to reward and recognise partners’ investments in high-quality delivery practices that drive customer adoption and success.”

An evolution of the 麻豆原创 PartnerEdge program, the framework will help differentiate and highlight their skills and experience – based on solution and consultant knowledge, customer success and proficiency – to generate visibility and emphasise what they do best.

Specifically, the launch of the new Competency Framework will:

• Recognise partners for their practice maturity and focus on customer lifetime value based on expertise and specialisation across solution areas and geographies
• Help partners stay ahead of customer needs through an automated designation process where they can identify achieved and at-risk designations based on their daily achievements and performance, to be visible in the??portal, which partners use to manage their relationships with customers and 麻豆原创
• Feature new 麻豆原创 partner branding logos embedded within the??tool, which displays all partner competencies for customers to search and match to their transformation goals

“Competency Framework from 麻豆原创 PartnerEdge allows partners to highlight their expertise and helps customers identify partners with the right skill set to address their business needs,” said Paul Edwards, director, Software Channels & Ecosystems, IDC, an industry analyst firm. “By launching this new model, 麻豆原创 is prioritising partners and the work that they do to drive customer success.”

Within the framework, partners will be classified by two aspects: competency and specialisation. To start, there will be seven competencies that align with the solution or line-of-business areas, such as human capital management, which will have three progressive tiers: essential, advanced and expert. Within each competency, partners can have specialisations at the product or process level, such as talent management. Partner performance in each competency will be measured and attained across three areas, including expert knowledge, customer success and proficiency.

This change will create the foundation for better outcomes for both partners and customers who can be assured that the partner they choose has both the necessary knowledge and proven expertise to deliver the specific solution they need.
