If your company is like most, you’ve already deployed SAP's lines of business (LOB) applications, such as our customer experience (CX), digital supply chain (DSC), human experience management (HXM), or intelligent spend business network (ISBN) solutions, along with your SAP enterprise resource planning (ERP) and financial management systems.

To thrive in dynamic conditions, however, you also need to increase your company's agility and resilience. These LOB solutions provide a proven framework for adopting industry best practices, and they can significantly increase productivity and speed.
