Every senior IT leader running an SAP transformation faces the same challenge: the business case depends on benefits that arrive at the end of the programme, while investment starts on day one.

AI has changed that equation. The technology being positioned as the outcome of the clean core journey can now generate value during the transformation itself - accelerating analysis, improving decisions and uncovering simplification opportunities faster than traditional approaches.

This session explores how to sequence AI deployment to deliver value earlier and bring forward ROI. It will cover the challenges of adopting AI early, where the greatest opportunities exist and how to prioritise investments that accelerate delivery while reducing cost and risk.

Key Takeaways:

Identifying AI use cases that deliver measurable value early in the programme.
Building a business case for a transformation that delivers early value and cost savings to support a more self-funding delivery model.
Developing a roadmap to sequence AI investments for faster ROI and long-term transformation success.
