Sharjah Electricity, Water and Gas Authority and SAP embark on innovative roadmap and comprehensive digital transformation strategy<\/h2>\n

DUBAI, UAE <\/strong>\u2014 23 November, 2023 <\/strong>\u2014<\/em> Sharjah Electricity, Water and Gas Authority (SEWA) has announced its successful digital transformation powered by global technology company SAP SE<\/a>.

Among the solutions that have been deployed are SAP S\/4HANA, an ERP solution, industry-specific modules such as IS Utilities, SAP Asset Manager, SAP Business Technology Platform, and for human resource management, SAP SuccessFactors. As the first utilities organization in the UAE running live on SAP S\/4HANA, the implementation was exceptionally accelerated. In line with this, SEWA \u2013 supported by SAP Services \u2013\u00a0 achieved the fastest implementation of the SAP Model Company for Utilities throughout the Middle East and Africa. The project also aligns SEWA with UAE government\u2019s digitalization strategy and includes integration with government entities such as Digital Sharjah.<\/p>\n

H.E. Abdullah Abdul Rahman Muhammad Obaid Al Shamsi, Director-General of SEWA, commented, \u201cThe digital transformation is in line with SEWA\u2019s motto of being \u2018reliable, efficient and sustainable\u2019 in all our actions. Leveraging SAP\u2019s advanced technologies and global best industry practices, this transformation ensures we continue to enhance our services, increase efficiency, and attain the highest possible quality and safety standards. The benefits of real-time reporting, reduced month-end closing time, and automating processes to ensure bill accuracy and provide a seamless mobile experience, including app-based meter reading, will benefit our customers directly. Automation will also enable our employees to focus on their core functions, while the deployment of SAP SuccessFactors aims to enhance our employee experience and development, ensuring we have an engaged and motivated team.\u201d<\/p>\n

SEWA selected SAP Services to implement the solutions due to its deep expertise in the utilities sector as well as its focus on embedding sustainability metrics in its solutions. Executives from SEWA and SAP announced the successful deployment during this week\u2019s WETEX event, the region\u2019s largest sustainability and clean energy technology exhibition.<\/p>\n

Sergio Maccotta, Senior Vice President SAP Middle East and Africa \u2013 South, commented, \u201cSAP worked very closely with the SEWA team to create an innovative roadmap and transformation strategy, which will realize immediate benefits by delivering a smarter experience for customers and employees. \u00a0With this digital transformation, SEWA has positioned itself for success in an increasingly data-driven and customer-centric world, in alignment with the UAE\u2019s digital transformation goals.\u201d<\/p>\n
