Oxford Economics and SAP Study Explores Businesses’ Use of Data to Manage During the Pandemic

WALLDORF SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) today announced a new research study, in partnership with Oxford Economics, designed to discover how businesses are incorporating a holistic management approach into everyday business strategy and operations.

This approach, known as systems thinking, requires that every part of an organization, including its external partners and customers, uses real-time insights from high-quality data.

The survey was conducted with 3,000 global business executives across 10 industries* during the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Key findings include:

“We found that a majority of respondents have taken some steps to integrate business processes in specific parts of their organizations, but they have more work to do enterprise-wide,” Oxford Economics Editorial Director Edward Cone said. “Taking that step toward complete interconnectivity will go a long way toward helping businesses respond quickly to evolving challenges and position for future growth.”
