Road to Supply Chain Excellence

Do you want to prepare your supply chain for the future? Find out how to take the first steps towards a more innovative, efficient and high-performing supply chain at our knowledge event Road to Supply Chain Excellence.

As a manufacturing company or wholesaler, you're undoubtedly witnessing the rise of technologies like artificial intelligence, robotics, and Industry 4.0. But how do you turn these innovations into real-world solutions? How do you build a solid IT foundation that truly transforms your supply chain? During this event, we’ll share insights, customer stories, and practical examples to inspire you to take the next step—no matter where you are in your SAP journey.

What to expect

We’ll kick off with an inspiring customer story from network operator Stedin. At Stedin, the energy transition is part of everyday life: strengthening, expanding, and making the energy grid smarter. You'll hear how Stedin is enabling this transition while also working on the digital transformation of its IT landscape.

After that, you’ll take part in an interactive breakout carousel, featuring:

  • EWM & TM in practice (Stedin + McCoy) – Discover how Stedin expanded its first EWM step with TM, reaching new milestones on the road to Supply Chain Excellence.

  • Robotics & Automation (Inther Group) – In this session, you’ll discover how SAP EWM and Inther’s automated warehouse systems can work together through SAP MFS (Material Flow System). This integration enables efficient, flexible, and scalable warehouse operations that align perfectly with your logistics processes. Learn how this connection helps optimize warehouse performance.

  • SAP’s continuous innovation (Bart Smetsers) – Hear directly from SAP about the new processes and innovations they continuously add to strengthen the foundation.

  • AI as an accelerator (McCoy) – See how accessible AI tools speed up the journey by making processes smarter and more efficient, without lengthy implementations.

With this program, we’ll take you step by step on the journey to Supply Chain Excellence: from making the first choices and building a solid foundation, to deepening logistics processes, and then exploring the possibilities of AI, automation, and SAP-driven innovation.

Company visit: tour of the Stedin warehouse

We complete the event with an exclusive visit to Stedin's warehouse in Vianen. This is where all the components of the energy network are stored: from cables and smart meters to impressive transformers. A unique look behind the scenes that adds even more power to the story!

Supply chain innovation starts with a strong foundation

Innovative technology offers unprecedented opportunities: from automated quality checks to self-driving reach trucks. But innovation can only be successful if the basics are in place.

“To innovate, data must flow smoothly through your organisation and your processes must be seamless.”

Solution Architect, McCoy

This event will help you lay that solid foundation while inspiring you to take the next step. Think more efficiency, lower costs, better margins and satisfied customers.
