This will be a game changer for product based large organisations, whose market advantage is based on unique product development processes and/or highly evolved supply chains.

SAP has unveiled AI capabilities for manufacturing cloud applications that are intended to help customers use their own real-time data to make better decisions to improve product development and manufacturing efficiency.

The new AI capabilities are embedded into SAP applications and include the following:

a) In SAP Digital Manufacturing, customers can use large amounts of machine data and integrate AI to automate and modernize production processes, such as visualizing inspections.

b) In SAP Asset Performance Management, AI connects and manages IoT devices and sensor data for remote monitoring to improve maintenance strategies and act on predictions or specific conditions, such as detecting anomalies.

c) In SAP Field Service Management, AI generates predictive routing using historical and real-time data to plan the most efficient routes for the most appropriate technicians.
