Think Tanks connect you with peers navigating the same challenges and opportunities as you. ASUG will facilitate an interactive peer-to-peer exchange where solutions are shared for topics specific to your role and interest.

This is a chance to share best practices, compare notes, and learn about how your fellow ASUG members are planning to adapt to the post-COVID retail environment. Will consumers flock to brick and mortar? Is an e-commerce economy a given at this point? How have supply chains and manufacturing adapted to these changes?  

Let’s talk through one of the most challenging evolutions of retail to help everyone brainstorm and share in a safe space facilitated by ASUG and SAP. Nobody has the answers at this point, but bring questions and an open mind. 

The format for Friday, June 26 at 10 a.m. CT will include:

• Brief welcome and kickoff from ASUG 
• The discussion will focus on: 

  • E-commerce evolution in a COVID and post-COVID economy 

  • Tools and resources that have worked and have struggled 

  • Review of SAP and ASUG solutions in this space, where and when are they appropriate 

• Sharing of recent wins or successes, along with resources utilized 

Gain visibility into the challenges and successes other SAP customers are experiencing, and acquire new ideas for real-world solutions. 

If you are experiencing challenges and would like to lead your own case study, fill out the survey here. 

Think Tank Insights: 

• Most successful model for change is quick identification of problem (a few weeks) followed by a 3-month “epic”. 

• Speed is greatest factor of success with e-commerce digital transformation 

• Forecasting post COVID-19 is tricky, as online shopping patterns have become difficult to predict, with widespread wfh 

• Biggest transition has been in supply chain and logistics.
