NTT and SAP have worked together for over 30 years, supporting the needs of enterprise businesses. Together both companies have been driving customer success, helping enterprises to adopt integrated solutions across hybrid IT infrastructures, security, applications, business technology platform, delivery and managed services. The deeper relationship enables SAP and NTT to leverage their best capabilities and expertise to deliver solutions that help companies transform into intelligent enterprises.
The strategic alliance creates a new era of digitally connected global value chains and intends to deliver solutions that will support a remote and connected world. These solutions will embrace SAP’s vision of an intelligent enterprise. They will incorporate the best of SAP’s intelligent technologies — the Internet of Things, edge computing and machine learning, to name a few — with NTT’s industry-leading suite of information and communications technology (ICT) and hybrid cloud capabilities worldwide. These connected value chain solutions, which NTT and SAP will look to co-innovate and jointly go-to-market with, will result in a more unified and automated collaboration across customers, suppliers, retailers, manufacturers and logistics providers. A digitally connected value chain will help improve performance, transform the customer experience and enable new business models.

- A connected mobility offering can help track moving assets on the road for reliable logistics and secure transportation delivery
- Traceability delivered by a connected product solution can enable end-to-end value chain visibility, from the container-level down to individual product items
“By redefining our global partnership with SAP, we are taking a significant step toward realizing a wholly digitalized society,” said Jun Sawada, president and CEO, NTT. “It will allow us to collaborate further to create a better future. Having SAP as our strategic partner allows us to drive more innovations by combining NTT’s global industry solutions, system integration, ICT infrastructures, multi-hybrid cloud capabilities, security and managed services with SAP’s top-notch applications and technologies.
