“That was really the synthesis there of how we needed to get in front and realizing very early that traditional sources of supply were already close to being tapped out. “We have made a proactive approach to open the Ariba network up to get supply in line with demand….with Asia at the forefront of the pandemic,” said Haydon. These services are currently available for free through June 30, with SAP noting this initiative is part of a larger commitment to maintain reliable and transparent supply chains in a time of such uncertainty.Ĭhris Haydon, President of SAP Procurement Solutions, told LM that when SAP made the decision to open up SAP Ariba Discovery the emerging supply chain challenges related to coronavirus had yet to hit the United States and Europe in the same way in which it had already hit Asia. SAP Ariba Discovery allows any buyer to post immediate sourcing needs and to enable any of the four million suppliers on the Ariba Network to respond with their ability to deliver the goods and services required. Last month, in response to the uncertainty of coronavirus, the company formally opened access to SAP Ariba Discovery, a business-to-business e-commerce offering designed to connect buyers and suppliers on a single network.
During the ongoing coronavirus, or COVID-19 pandemic, SAP, the global leader in enterprise application management software, has taken measured steps to enable shippers and suppliers hustle to respond to urgent fulfillment requests.
