The new year continues digitally! BeNeering started off BME’s first Digital Week this year on 1.2.2021 with a 1-hour webinar on Real-Time Procurement for SAP & S/4HANA.

A number of questions reached us during the webinar, which we were not able to answer all live. Therefore, we have compiled and answered all the questions again for you here.

For all those who could not be there live, we have provided a recording of the lecture:

“The ERP future lies in hybrid scenarios, where the combination of SAP On-Premise and BeNeering Cloud offers clear advantages and significantly increases collaboration between employees, purchasing and suppliers. The connection of existing ERP systems to the BeNeering Real-Time Procurement Cloud offers users a guided buying experience that combines all purchasing channels and unites them with the ERP. A modern and intuitive user interface increases usability. The focus is on catalogue buying, service procurement, marketplace integration and simple sourcing (requests and offers). The existing ERP logic including all rules can remain in place and you can access master data, documents and search aids without redundant data storage in real time. See the new possibilities for yourself in the webinar, regardless of whether you run an SAP ECC, SAP S/4HANA or even other ERP system.”

Under the hashtag #gipfelstürmer, the BME hold its annual Symposium in November this year digitally for the first time. Over four days, participants online could take part in lectures and discussions on the subject of corporate purchasing, visit a virtual trade fair and even meet in an interactive evening event. Digital networking in all its glory!

On Thursday, November 12, 2020 at 10:35 a.m. in Stream F – Procurement Strategies, our Managing Director Christoph Moll explained how hybrid purchasing scenarios will combine the strengths of on-premise and cloud in the future.

Questions that were asked after the presentation were answered and compiled here.

You can visit our ‘digital booth’ for the symposium here.

On September 23rd and 24th, 2020 one of the few attendance fairs this year for the purchasing sector took place in Hannover – the 3rd Procurement Summit.

On the second day of the fair, our Managing Director Christoph Moll demonstrated in a 15-minute master class with live demo why the ERP of tomorrow needs a Real-Time Procurement Cloud.

“Why does the ERP need a Procurement Cloud, and why in real-time? We will illustrate this topic in a live demo. This includes guided buying, which supports employees in purchasing via electronic catalogs, B2B marketplace, automated price requests and free text requests. The focus will be on intuitive system guidance and the automation of digital processes. Existing logic and master data in ERP will remain valid in view of the new possibilities in the “hybrid” cloud.”

“The ERP future lies in hybrid scenarios, where SAP on-premise solutions combined with the BeNeering Cloud offer clear advantages and increased collaboration between employees, purchasing and suppliers”.

We would like to thank you for your active participation in our experts webinar on 13.05.2020. Questions that arose during the webinar and BeNeering’s answers can be found here. If you did not have time to follow the webinar, you will find a recording (in german) of a similar webinar on our homepage.

S/4HANA as an opportunity for purchasing – Optimizing or repositioning?

On October 14th and 15th, the BME will hold a practical forum in Bonn on the conversion from SAP SRM to S/4HANA. Specialists and executives from purchasing, supply management, procurement operations, IT architecture and supplier management will discuss new digitization strategies, hybrid scenarios and potential analyses for the new S/4HANA.

Visit the conference on October 15th and get in touch with us at an interactive round table! At 12.30 p.m. our managing director Christoph Moll will present the possibilities of a S/4 Guided Buying with the BeNeering Cloud.

The 10th BME eSolution Days took place in Düsseldorf from 12 – 13 March 2019. Visitors at the stand of BeNeering GmbH learned more about our cloud solution with Guided Buying and the integration in S/4HANA.

The technical lecture of our customer Lufthansa (many thanks to Thomas Göller!) and the lecture of our managing director Christoph Moll in the Solution Forum were attended up to the last place. We thank all listeners for their active interest.
