It also showcases the value of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sap.com\/uk\/products\/rise.html\">RISE with SAP<\/a>, SAP\u2019s tailored-to-fit cloud ERP solution, in delivering business-wide transformation at scale.<\/p>\n<p>The deployment forms part of BT Group\u2019s multi-year digital transformation journey to enhance its operations and build better colleague experiences.
