1. Brizy: The Best Website Builder for Non-techies

Albéa digitalise la maintenance de ses sites industriels avec SAP Asset Manager

Actualités, ERP & Applications, Innovation, SAP

Avec l’aide de TeamWork, Albéa a adopté les solutions SAP Asset Manager et SAP Plant Maintenance, afin d’équiper ses techniciens de maintenance d’une solution moderne et mobile. Ce core model sera prochainement déployé sur l’ensemble des sites industriels du groupe.

Leader mondial des tubes et emballages pour les produits cosmétiques et parfums. Albéa adresse un large panel de clients, dont des marques prestigieuses comme L’Oréal et Clarins. L’industriel dispose de 43 sites répartis dans 15 pays, où travaillent plus de 12 500 employés. Albéa a réalisé un chiffre d’affaires 2021 de 1,2 milliard de dollars.

La plupart des usines d’Albéa ne disposent pas d’outil dédié pour suivre les activités de maintenance. « Notre objectif était de mettre en place un outil commun pour gérer la maintenance et accompagner les techniciens avec des processus digitalisés et automatisés, tout en favorisant leur mobilité au sein de leur lieu de travail », résume Émilie Ganot, Business Relationship Manager, Supply Chain & Manufacturing, Albéa.

Un premier site pilote a été désigné pour accueillir cette solution, l’usine Albéa Argonne de Sainte-Menehould, le principal site industriel du groupe en France.

SAP Asset Manager : une offre mobile et ergonomique

Les usines d’Albéa, dont celle de Sainte-Menehould, travaillent la plupart sur un ERP SAP ECC. Certains utilisateurs étaient toutefois réticents à l’idée d’adopter SAP Plant Maintenance (SAP PM), jugé trop peu ergonomique et trop coûteux à maintenir. Plusieurs offres de GMAO ont été étudiées au fil des ans, mais elles restaient complexes à intégrer avec la gestion des stocks et le contrôle de gestion.

« Lors d’une démonstration de SAP Asset Manager (SAP AM), nous avons découvert un outil ergonomique, qui permet aux opérateurs de maintenance d’utiliser une tablette pour saisir leurs opérations et faire remonter des informations dans SAP PM. Nous avons alors validé l’utilisation de SAP AM, avec SAP PM en back-end, » témoigne Astrid Chauvin, Business Relationship Manager, Supply Chain & Manufacturing, Albéa.

Premier avantage, la solution s’interface nativement avec SAP ECC et ses différents modules (stocks, achats et finance). L’interface repose sur la technologie Fiori, qui permet de proposer une expérience utilisateur optimisée, compatible avec les terminaux mobiles. Enfin, l’application offre la capacité de saisir des données hors connexion, ce qui peut être très utile en environnement industriel.

TeamWork a assuré, en collaboration avec Albéa, l’intégration de cette solution. « TeamWork est un partenaire de confiance avec lequel nous aimons travailler, poursuit Astrid Chauvin. La force de TeamWork est de savoir aborder les sujets tant sur leurs aspects fonctionnels que techniques, le tout avec une forte connaissance métier. De plus, c’est une structure à taille humaine, très accessible. »

Une solution bien acceptée

« Le site Albéa Argonne est une grosse usine, comprenant 20 lignes de fabrication et 550 salariés, dont 20 techniciens de maintenance travaillant en 24/7, détaille Émilie Ganot. Nous avons décidé dans un premier temps de déployer la solution sur deux lignes pilotes. Le core model que nous allons mettre au point sera ensuite déployé sur le reste de l’usine, puis sur les autres sites industriels du groupe. »

Dans l’absolu, le déploiement de SAP AM reste un projet assez simple. Albéa a dû toutefois déployer simultanément SAP AM et SAP PM. De plus, l’intégration mobile – native dans SAP S/4HANA – a nécessité la mise en place d’un add-on spécifique sous SAP ECC. Enfin, la solution SAP AM repose sur des services mobiles de la SAP Business Technology Platform, qu’il a donc fallu aussi mettre en place et configurer. Au final, 5 mois ont été nécessaires entre le kick off du projet et le go live de la solution.

« Notre plus grande surprise a été l’adhésion des utilisateurs, note Astrid Chauvin. Ils ne voulaient initialement pas utiliser la solution SAP PM. En leur proposant SAP AM, nous avons donc eu l’impression de jouer à quitte ou double. Mais, dès que les utilisateurs ont entamé le projet avec nous et vu comment l’outil se présentait sur des tablettes, l’enthousiasme a été immédiat. Ceci nous a confortés dans l’idée que nous avions fait le bon choix. »

Reste que la solution n’est pas sans défauts. Si son cœur ne connaît qu’une grosse mise à jour par an, cette mise à jour peut avoir des implications aussi bien sur SAP AM, SAP PM que la SAP BTP. Quant à l’application mobile, elle est mise à jour bien plus fréquemment. Les équipes ont donc dû apprendre à gérer une solution hybride, mêlant on premise, cloud et mobilité.

La satisfaction prévaut toutefois depuis le go live. Prochaine étape sur le court et moyen terme, le déploiement de ce core model sur les autres lignes de production du groupe. À plus long terme, Albéa espère tirer profit du couple SAP AM / SAP PM pour se lancer dans la maintenance prédictive de ses outils de production.

PwC et SAP lancent une nouvelle stratégie d’innovation pour aider les entreprises à atteindre leurs objectifs ESG et Net Zero.

Actualités, ERP & Applications, SAP

NEW YORK/WALLDORF, Allemagne – 7 décembre 2022 – PwC et SAP ont annoncé une nouvelle stratégie de co-innovation visant à faire du développement durable une partie intégrante des opérations commerciales. Cette stratégie vise à créer des solutions fiables pour relever les principaux défis Environnementaux, Sociaux et de Gouvernance d’entreprise (ESG). Elle couvre la mesure, le reporting et le pilotage du carbone ainsi que la décarbonisation de la chaîne d’approvisionnement, le risque climatique et l’analyse concurrentielle.

La nouvelle stratégie ESG s’appuie sur la force de l’alliance existante entre PwC et SAP, qui a fourni avec succès des solutions de transformation d’entreprise à des clients dans plus de 80 pays.

La stratégie comprend des solutions co-innovées, créées avec l’expertise approfondie de PwC en matière d’ESG et de comptabilité, visant à permettre aux entreprises d’appliquer des mesures ESG à travers leurs opérations fiables, auditables et vérifiables. Ces solutions s’appuient sur la solution SAP® Cloud for Sustainable Enterprises, ainsi que sur la solution SAP Sustainability Control Tower et la solution SAP Product Footprint Management. Ensemble, PwC et SAP aident les entreprises à tirer parti des solutions dont elles ont besoin pour satisfaire aux exigences de conformité et stimuler la croissance, afin de répondre aux attentes toujours plus grandes des clients et des investisseurs. Ils aident également les clients à façonner l’avenir de leur stratégie net zéro et de leur reporting sur le développement durable.

La stratégie de PwC et SAP comprend des solutions englobant une stratégie ESG à l’échelle de l’entreprise, allant de l’optimisation des transactions et de la reconnaissance des crédits d’impôt à la gestion des risques liés aux tiers et à l’analyse concurrentielle. Les trois principaux défis à relever en matière d’ESG, de réduction des émissions et de rapports sur le développement durable seront également abordés :

Le reporting et la diffusion aidant à satisfaire aux exigences en matière d’établissement de rapports et de diffusion des données sur la mesure du carbone de niveau investisseur, ceci afin de répondre aux demandes des investisseurs, prêteurs, régulateurs et clients.
L’opérationnalisation de la durabilité pour soutenir la prise en compte des mesures ESG, en particulier les questions sur le carbone, directement dans les fonctions commerciales, telles que la vente, la capitalisation et la fiscalité.
La gestion des risques, le suivi et la conformité de la chaîne d’approvisionnement étendant le soutien aux mesures ESG pour couvrir l’impact des fournisseurs sur les performances organisationnelles.

Des solutions comme l’outil primé Climate Excellence de PwC Allemagne, basé sur SAP Business Technology Platform, ont déjà démontré la force de la collaboration entre les deux organisations pour mettre sur le marché des innovations ESG.

PwC et SAP s’attachent à aider les entreprises à répondre aux exigences de reporting et d’auditabilité imposées par l’European Financial Reporting Advisory Group (EFRAG) et l’International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB). Ils aident également les entreprises à se conformer à une décision connexe proposée par la Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) des États-Unis. Les solutions fournies par PwC et SAP permettent de créer l’environnement en temps réel, et axé sur les données dont les clients ont besoin pour exploiter et promouvoir l’entreprise durable de demain.

Bob Moritz, Global Chairman de PwC, a déclaré : « L’ESG est devenu un impératif commercial et est au cœur de la stratégie mondiale de PwC, ‘The New Equation’, qui vise à aider les clients à instaurer la confiance avec leurs parties prenantes et à obtenir des résultats durables. De nouvelles exigences en matière de reporting et de divulgation ESG sont établies, et une plus grande transparence est essentielle pour instaurer la confiance. Cette conviction est au cœur de notre nouvelle stratégie de co-innovation avec SAP qui vient élargir notre collaboration pour mettre l’accent sur le développement de solutions ESG. PwC a travaillé intensément afin d’aider les entreprises à répondre à leurs exigences pour atteindre leurs objectifs ESG. L’association entre notre expertise et notre réputation de confiance et d’intégrité à la plateforme technologique de SAP, permettra d’apporter des capacités et des solutions plus larges pour répondre aux défis des entreprises dans le respect de leurs engagements ESG et de durabilité. »

Christian Klein, CEO et Membre du Conseil d’Administration de SAP SE, a déclaré : « La clé de la capacité de chaque organisation à atteindre ses objectifs de durabilité et à susciter des changements positifs, est la transparence. Notre collaboration permettra de combiner l’expertise sectorielle approfondie et la connaissance des clients de PwC avec notre portefeuille de technologies de pointe en matière de développement durable. La transparence ESG qui en résultera aidera les entreprises à réinventer leurs modèles économiques et à obtenir des résultats durables dont le monde a besoin de toute urgence.”

11 Best Video Editing Apps

Actualités

We’re living in a world where video content is everywhere. So if you’re not creating videos, you’re probably consuming them. It’s a massive part of our online lives.

Video is also more popular than ever before. According to statistics, 78% of people watch online video content weekly, while about 55% of internet users view videos daily. And that number is only increasing as time goes on.

That means that if you want to be successful, it’s essential that you learn how to use video editing software and create compelling visual content for your business or personal brand.

When you’re ready to start editing your videos, you’ll want to consider a platform that’s easy to use, has plenty of features, and makes it easy to share and collaborate with others.

There are many video editing programs, each with its strengths and weaknesses. Some are free, and others cost money, but they all have something to offer.

Here are some of the best video editing tools on the market today:

1. Adobe Premiere Pro

Adobe Premiere Pro is one of the most popular video editing software packages, and for a good reason. It’s an excellent tool for both beginners and professionals alike.

With Adobe Premiere Pro, you can create professional-quality videos, add motion graphics and effects, create titles, and much more. The software is easy to use, but there is a steep learning curve. If you’ve used Adobe Creative Cloud applications before, Premiere Pro will seem more familiar. That said, Creative Cloud Learning Center offers many materials for users at every level.

To start, open a project and import your video and audio files using the media browser. You can also use dynamic linking to bring in Illustrator, Photoshop, and After Effects files. Then create or edit the sequence, add titles to your video, and add transitions and effects. You can edit colors, mix audio, change speed, and export your video file.

The user interface isn’t too complex, considering it’s a video editing platform with many editing options. The UI consists of panels, a workspace, and a blue highlight. After using Photoshop and Illustrator for so long, the panels were easy to understand.

The best part? Premiere Pro’s customizable workspace!

You can arrange the panels however you want and save different setups for different projects or tasks. For example, you could have one workspace with your video and audio files open and another workspace with only your timeline open.

As you resize one panel, the other gets resized to adjust automatically—this makes it a cinch to move around the interface to find what you’re looking for.

Here’s a quick breakdown of the workspace:

On top, you will see a menu including assembly, editing, color, effects, audio, graphics, and library.
Assembly is where you import your files. You cannot simply drag & drop your files here.
Editing is where you can mix your audio and video and drag & drop them into your timeline.
The color area will give you outstanding control over your video colors.
On the right side, you will see color balance details; on the left, you will see the Lumetri Scopes of your video clip.

Key Features:

You can import single or multiple images from other Adobe applications such as Illustrator and Photoshop.
You can add animated graphics and edit them.
With Fram.io, you can get time-stamped feedback from the reviewers.
It offers stunning video and audio transition effects and lighting effects.
Version 23.0 offers the best titling toolsets, with the ability to bulk-edit your clip titles in the timeline and flexible alignment controls.

Pros:

It offers a 7-day trial period, where you can try out all of its features to see if it is the right fit for your business.
It has a flexible and customizable workspace.
The site’s learning center is packed with valuable resources.

Cons:

It takes some time to get used to it.
It doesn’t offer a freemium version.
The program has a lot of effects you may never use.

Pricing:

It starts at $20.99 for 100 GB of cloud storage.

2. Pinnacle Studio 26 Ultimate

Pinnacle Studio 26 Ultimate is one of Pinnacle’s more powerful video editing software. It lets you create stunning videos with accurate keyframing, high-level performance, and professional-level editing.

Pinnacle Studio’s interface looks like a mini version of Adobe Premiere Pro, but some crucial differences exist. For example, Pinnacle Studio doesn’t have as many effects or color correction tools as Premiere Pro.

The first thing I noticed when I started using the editor was its color grading controls. The toolkit lets you adjust your clip’s tone, brightness, hue, and other color levels.

You can also create animated video overlays to direct viewers’ attention to a specific part of the screen. These overlays can contain any image, logo, graphic, or text with a transition.

In addition to these features, you can also create video masks and edit YouTube videos, drone videos, 360 videos, and other types of videos.

Key Features:

It lets you make targeted edits with motion tracking.
You can create two types of video masks: shape masks & panel masks. You can use them to add creative effects to your video, censor a part of the video, overlay some elements of the video, and even use it to hide objects.
Smart object tracking lets you create shape-aware masks in the video, and smart technology means you don’t have to recreate masks for each frame.
Have you seen those popular gaming videos on YouTube? You can make them with MultiCam Capture 2.0 Lite, which allows you to record your screen and add audio overlays. This product is also suitable for making tutorial videos.

Pros:

It offers MultiCam editing.
Its UI is clean and easy to navigate.
In addition, they have plenty of helpful information and learning material on their website.

Cons:

It’s costly.
With so many effects and detailed masking features, it can confuse some users.

Pricing:

It starts at $129.99 for the complete version.

3. Apple Final Cut Pro

Apple Final Cut Pro is a powerful video editing tool for Mac users. It’s been around for years, but it’s still one of the most popular options for video editing. The software has many features, from basic video editing to advanced compositing.

From editing, mixing, audio, motion graphics, object tracking, and color grading to plugins, cinematic mode, and effects, it offers everything a professional video editor would want.

There are many built-in effects and transitions which you can use to enhance your videos. For example, you can add titles and text to your footage by dragging the product onto your footage or clicking on it directly from the library window. This is much faster than using hundreds of effects individually, which takes much more time than this method!

In addition, the newest version of the Final Cut Pro 10.6.2 makes it easier to track down duplicate clips in the timeline and timeline index, as they’ll be highlighted automatically. It also improves speech clarity by using machine learning to minimize or adjust background noise levels. And it’s easier to move, rotate, and resize clips.

Final Cut Pro is also optimized for Apple Silicon, Mac Studio, and Macbook Pro, which means you can work with high frame rates with high performance. Let’s take a look at some of its key features.

Key Features:

Apple Final Cut Pro lets you move and trim your clips seamlessly. It also enables you to pack multiple video and audio clips into one bundle with its compound clips feature.
You can add metadata tags to your clips, which will help you find them quickly. You can create custom column views and sort your clips by proxy or media types.
The Duplicate Detection feature highlights duplicate clips in the timeline.
With its Multicam editing feature, you can automatically sync up to 64 angles of videos with different frame sizes, frame rates, and formats.

Pros:

UI is easy to understand and navigate.
It offers magnetic timelines.
It provides a free trial.

Cons:

Available for Mac OS systems only.
Very expensive. If you need it for a shorter period, you cannot get a monthly or yearly subscription.

Pricing:

It costs $299.99 for a one-time purchase.

5. Apple iMovie

Apple iMovie is the best free video editing app that comes with all Macs and iOS devices. It’s also an excellent choice for beginners.

You can use iMovie to edit videos, add music and effects, and create slideshows. It’s also great if you need to make simple edits, such as trimming clips or adding transitions.

It allows you to create/edit your videos in 4 simple steps:

To start a trailer using iMovie, first select a theme from Apple’s pre-designed themes. Then add visual effects to your video. Next, add the music of your choice, choose one of Apple’s pre-designed templates, and your video is ready to export.

To make a movie, select a project and photos and videos to add from the library. You can record directly in iMovie before editing. Like other phone apps, you can add text, effects, and music to your video.

Next, trim and arrange your clips and images in the timeline. When you’re done with that, click the Add Media button to add a soundtrack to your project. Your track will be automatically placed in the beginning and will fit your clip length. You can also add sound effects by browsing and selecting from their built-in sound effects.

Next, add your titles and text. You can make title screens, end credits, or other text elements with this feature. In your timeline, click the clip and then click Titles in the toolbar and choose from the title styles to add your titles.

You can now add filters to your videos to give them a complete makeover. Click the Filter button and choose from the built-in filters, and then preview your video as you choose the effect.

Now, you’re ready to export your video file. To do so, click on the Share button in the project browser and then choose Email or Text Message.

Yes—it’s that simple. So simple that even a complete newbie can get started right away.

However, note that iMovie is suitable only if you want to create basic videos, such as slideshows, short clips, and home movies. If you’re looking for more advanced features like motion graphics or adding filters to your videos, then Adobe Premiere Pro or Apple Final Cut Pro might be better suited for you.

It’s a basic video editing software – with limited editing options for professional video editors.

You can also import files from your camera or card reader by selecting the import option ‘From Camera or Card Reader.’

Adobe Premiere Elements offers a user-friendly workspace that groups its features into Quick, Guided, and Exper views. You can choose any of these depending on your level of expertise.

If you choose Quick, you can trim video clips, create a movie by putting photos and videos together, and also choose never to see this option again.

In Guided view, you can get a step-by-step guide throughout the creation.

Expert view offers more advanced tools and features – for example, an audio mixer or time-stretches abilities.

In addition, video tools let you mark and extract favorite moments, freeze a frame as an image, track moving objects, and smart-trim low-quality parts of the clip. You can adjust the audio balance with the audio mixer and narrate clips.

Frequently Asked Questions about Video Editing Platforms

What is a video editing platform?

A video editing platform is a software platform that allows you to edit your videos, photos, and other media files.

How do I choose the right video editing platform?

The first thing you should do when choosing a video editing platform is to find out whether it supports the features you need for your project. Then check if it supports multiple file types and if it has tools for basic editing.

How much does a professional video editing platform cost?

You can find affordable professional-grade video editing software for less than $100 per year. The more advanced platforms with additional features cost more, but they also offer more capabilities than basic ones like iMovie or Windows Movie Maker that come free with your operating system.

How do I edit a video?

Editing a video can be done on any video editing platform. The process of editing varies from platform to platform, but the basic steps are the same:

Import your media (photos and videos) into the program
Arrange your media into a sequence for your video
Add transitions between scenes or clips
Add titles and other text elements to enhance visual storytelling
Save the project file

What features do video editing platforms have?

Video editing platforms provide many features to help users create their own videos. Some of these features include:

Video creation and editing tools
Audio mixing capabilities
The ability to add titles, images, and animations

Over to You!

The choice of a video editing platform can be one of the most important decisions you make when creating your video. First, you must choose a platform that will allow you to create high-quality videos suitable to your requirements. And if you’re looking for a basic and free video editor, there are options for that too.

If you’re a professional, use advanced video editing software tools like Adobe Premiere Pro, Pinnacle Studio 26 Ultimate, and Apple Final Cut Pro. They will take time to get used to, and you’d have to shell out a considerable budget, but it will be well worth it.

If you’re an amateur or a beginner, I recommend using Movavi Video Editor Wondershare Filmora or Clipchamp. They are easy to use and the best bang for the buck.

And if your purpose is just to create personal videos for your family and acquaintances on social media, then you can use a free video editing software like Apple iMovie.

Obtenir des résultats commerciaux clés grâce à la durabilité sociale

Actualités, ERP & Applications, SAP

Il ne fait aucun doute que la durabilité transforme l’économie mondiale. La diminution des ressources planétaires, le changement climatique, la division sociale et économique, l’évolution des préférences des consommateurs, l’activisme des employés, l’augmentation des réglementations et la baisse de la confiance institutionnelle conduisent tous à ce que les organisations soient de plus en plus mesurées en fonction de leur objectif ainsi que du profit. Et c’est bon pour les affaires.

Agir de manière socialement responsable renforce la réputation de la marque d’une organisation. Les demandeurs d’emploi et les consommateurs veulent aujourd’hui soutenir les organisations qui défendent quelque chose d’important et qui ont un impact positif sur la société dans son ensemble. Les investisseurs mettentdavantage l’accent sur les objectifs de développement durable en mettant davantage l’accent sur l’impact social. Les droits de l’homme et les réglementations environnementales se multiplient rapidement. Tout cela exige une approche plus durable de la part des PDG et des chefs d’entreprise.

Les gens, la planète et la prospérité

Lorsque vous entendez le mot durabilité, la première chose à laquelle vous pensez peut-être est le recyclage ou la durabilité environnementale, mais la durabilité va bien au-delà de l’élimination des bouteilles d’eau à usage unique et de la réduction de la consommation de combustibles fossiles. Une approche holistique de la durabilité intègre la durabilité sociale, environnementale et économique – ou les personnes, la planète et la prospérité.

Les organisations reconnaissent de plus en plus la nécessité de se concentrer autant sur la durabilité sociale, ou sur les personnes, qu’elles l’ont été sur la durabilité économique et environnementale – les trois ensemble soutiennent et stimulent la durabilité de l’entreprise. Les gens constituent la société, ont un impact sur l’environnement et alimentent l’économie. Les gens sont au cœur de toute stratégie visant à progresser vers les objectifs de développement durable. Dans le milieu de travail d’aujourd’hui, les RH ont à la fois la possibilité et la responsabilité de veiller à ce que les employées soient au centre du travail en créant un environnement dans lequel la main-d’œuvre et l’organisation peuvent s’épanouir.

People Sustainability Is Emerging as a New Strategic Business Imperative

Définir la durabilité sociale

La durabilité sociale se concentre sur le traitement de ces dernières – celles qui font partie de la main-d’œuvre d’une organisation, à travers leurs chaînes d’approvisionnement et dans les communautés dans lesquelles elles opèrent – de manière éthique et équitable.

Tout comme la durabilité environnementale et économique qui nécessitent une préservation et une utilisation prudentes des ressources naturelles et financières, la durabilité sociale nécessite de traiter les personnes et le potentiel humain comme des ressources précieuses qui doivent être soutenues et valorisées pour favoriser la résilience, l’agilité et la réalisation des objectifs de durabilité.

Les entreprises qui accordent la priorité à la durabilité sociale, en créant un impact social et en créant une culture plus diversifiée et inclusive, sont en mesure de stimuler l’engagement et la productivité des employés. Ils sont également mieux placés pour attirer et retenir les talents. Penny Stoker, leader mondial des talents chez EY, explique comment la durabilité sociale est au cœur de la construction d’un monde du travail meilleur.

Déballer les six piliers de la durabilité sociale

L’équipe SAP SuccessFactors HR Research a identifié six domaines distincts, ou piliers, qui comprennent la durabilité sociale. Bien que les domaines soient distincts, il est également clair qu’il existe un chevauchement entre ces piliers. Au centre de tout cela, bien sûr, se trouve la culture – car elle dicte tant de comportements à la fois à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur d’une organisation. Découvrons un peu ces domaines dans le contexte des processus RH et des ressources humaines.

Santé et sécurité

Au minimum, vous devez vous assurer que la main-d’œuvre est à l’abri des risques physiques pour la santé et la sécurité et a accès aux nécessités de base. Votre processus d’intégration offre-t-il aux nouvelles recrues une formation et un équipement de sécurité appropriés dès le premier jour ? Avez-vous une visibilité sur l’ensemble de vos effectifs, y compris leurs emplacements ? Savoir qui et où se trouve votre personnel à tout moment vous permet de réagir rapidement en temps de crise et de fournir un soutien en cas de besoin.

Diversité, équité et inclusion

Ici, l’accent est mis sur le traitement juste et équitable de chaque individu, quel que soit son groupe d’identité sociale ou son système de croyances, et sur la garantie qu’il ressent un véritable sentiment d’appartenance. Êtes-vous en mesure d’attirer et d’engager des demandeurs d’emploi d’horizons divers ? Avez-vous un processus de sélection et d’entretien standardisé ? Offrez-vous une transparence salariale ? Mesurez-vous et suivez-vous les objectifs de diversité, d’équité et d’inclusion ?

Bien-être et équilibre

Au-delà de la santé et de la sécurité de base, ce domaine vise à garantir que le bien-être holistique des employés – psychologique, social, financier et professionnel – est prioritaire et soutenu avec les outils et les ressources nécessaires. Offrez-vous un ensemble complet d’avantages sociaux avec des options intéressantes ? Vos employés se sentent-ils à l’aise de se mettre entièrement au travail ? Avez-vous favorisé une culture de dialogue continu entre les managers et leurs subordonnés ?

Confiance et transparence

Ici, l’accent est mis sur le fait que les employés ont une voix, comprennent comment les décisions clés qui les affectent sont prises et font confiance à leur organisation pour agir de manière éthique. Écoutez-vous régulièrement vos employés et agissez-vous en fonction des commentaires qu’ils fournissent ? Avez-vous établi des politiques et des processus pour l’utilisation éthique des technologies intelligentes et la confidentialité et la protection des données ? Publiez-vous publiquement des indicateurs de diversité ?

Autonomisation et croissance

Ici, les employés reçoivent la clarté, le soutien et les outils nécessaires pour développer leurs compétences et sont habilités à influencer leur trajectoire de carrière. Offrez-vous des options d’apprentissage inclusif pour répondre aux besoins et aux préférences d’apprentissage d’une main-d’œuvre diversifiée ? Assurez-vous que les managers fournissent des commentaires équitables et exploitables à leurs équipes ? Offrez-vous un accès équitable aux opportunités de développement ?

Objectif organisationnel et RSE

Dans ce dernier pilier, l’organisation travaille activement à redonner et à avoir un impact positif sur le monde ; les employés sont encouragés à participer et se sentent dynamisés par la mission et les valeurs de l’organisation. Assurez-vous que les objectifs individuels sont alignés sur les objectifs de l’entreprise pour accroître le sens du but et le sens du travail ? Offrez-vous à votre personnel l’espace nécessaire pour poursuivre ses passions ?

Que peuvent faire les organisations pour favoriser la durabilité sociale ?

Dans la plupart des organisations aujourd’hui, différentes parties de l’entreprise dirigent ces efforts avec une connaissance ou une collaboration minimale des stratégies des autres. Cependant, nous devons commencer quelque part. La première étape la plus logique est de comprendre où vous en êtes aujourd’hui. Avez-vous une stratégie unifiée – au moins sur certains de ces piliers ? Commencez les conversations et commencez à briser les silos organisationnels.

Donnez la priorité aux gens, et la planète et la prospérité suivront. C’est ce que signifie être une organisation résiliente, axée sur les résultats et axée sur les personnes. Une organisation non seulement équipé pour répondre aux besoins commerciaux d’aujourd’hui, mais qui s’adapte aux besoins commerciaux de demain.

SAP présente de grandes innovations dans le domaine de la gestion des dépenses au salon Spend Connect Live

Actualités, ERP & Applications, SAP

SAP NEWSBYTE – 25 octobre 2022 – Aujourd’hui, à l’occasion de SAP Spend Connect Live, la conférence la plus importante du secteur sur la gestion des dépenses, SAP SE (NYSE : SAP) annonce des innovations, des avancées et des points d’attention dans ce domaine :

SAP franchit des étapes clés dans son parcours FedRAMP®

Aujourd’hui, et dans les mois à venir, les agences gouvernementales et les organismes hautement réglementés des États-Unis auront accès aux solutions de gestion des dépenses et de réseau d’entreprise SAP, leaders sur le marché, qui sont déployées avec un haut niveau de sécurité. Les étapes importantes sont les suivantes :

Les solutions SAP Fieldglass sont désormais disponibles dans l’Environnement Commercial Réglementé (CRE) de SAP National Security Services (SAP NS2), qui a été construit selon les critères de base du National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) avec les paramètres modérés de FedRAMP. Il est également conforme à la Réglementation sur le Trafic International d’Armes (ITAR).
SAP Business Network for Procurement et SAP Business Network for Supply Chain seront disponibles dans SAP NS2 CRE en 2023. Les clients pourront ainsi collaborer avec leurs partenaires commerciaux dans un environnement qui répond aux exigences de sécurité et de conformité des agences gouvernementales fédérales.
SAP travaille également avec SAP NS2 pour ajouter les solutions d’approvisionnement SAP Ariba au portefeuille SAP NS2.
SAP Concur est actuellement “en cours de traitement” pour une autorisation d’agence FedRAMP. Un organisme d’évaluation tiers a effectué une évaluation complète de la sécurité, et l’agence sponsor a procédé à un examen de l’ensemble des autorisations de sécurité. Les solutions SAP Concur devraient être répertoriées sur la Marketplace FedRAMP d’ici la fin de l’année.

Intégration renforcée entre les solutions SAP Ariba et Icertis

Dans le cadre du partenariat élargi annoncé en début d’année, une intégration plus étroite entre SAP Ariba Sourcing and Procurement et les solutions de gestion des contrats d’Icertis peut aider les clients à gérer un plus grand nombre de scénarios. L’intégration plus stricte permet une meilleure collaboration et expérience utilisateur ainsi que des processus de gestion des contrats flexibles et rationalisés. Les utilisateurs peuvent désormais répliquer dans Icertis des espaces de travail contractuels issus des solutions SAP Ariba, lancer la création de contrats dans Icertis pour des espaces de travail contractuels provenant de SAP Ariba, et gérer plus efficacement les processus de modification des contrats. Ces intégrations sont développées et soutenues conjointement par les équipes de SAP Ariba et d’Icertis et ouvrent la voie à de futures innovations. En outre, pour les clients disposant de solutions SAP Fieldglass, il existe une intégration directe avec la plateforme Icertis Contract Intelligence, qui permet de rationaliser les processus de sourcing, d’onboarding et d’offboarding pour les travailleurs externes. Conçues pour apporter de la valeur à l’échelle de l’entreprise, ces intégrations permettent d’accélérer les négociations, de renforcer la conformité, d’obtenir des informations commerciales et une automatisation alimentées par l’IA.

Nouvelles fonctionnalités des solutions SAP Ariba en avant-première

SAP continue de promouvoir l’innovation dans le domaine des achats et a présenté en avant-première de nouvelles fonctionnalités conçues pour aider les entreprises à évoluer vers une expérience d’achat plus prédictive, personnalisée et durable. Les nouvelles fonctionnalités d’achat à 360° sont une évolution de l’achat guidé, dont SAP a été le pionnier il y a plusieurs années, visant à améliorer l’expérience d’achat de tous : de l’employé qui a besoin d’un nouvel ordinateur portable, aux acheteurs principaux sur des secteurs stratégiques et pour tout type de dépenses (matériaux directs et indirects, maintenance, réparation et opérations et services). Ces nouvelles fonctionnalités devraient être disponibles pour certains clients au début de l’année 2023.

SAP fait de la gestion des stocks un domaine d’intérêt et d’investissement permanent

La gestion des stocks est le fondement d’une stratégie d’approvisionnement efficace, surtout dans cette économie post-pandémique. Le rôle essentiel que joue l’approvisionnement dans la continuité des activités ne cessant de croître, il désormais nécessaire de numériser la gestion des stocks et les stratégies d’approvisionnement. Une étude récente menée par Economist Impact, sponsorisée par SAP, souligne que la gestion des stocks est l’un des principaux moteurs de la transformation numérique des achats, plus de 40 % des personnes interrogées ayant choisi cette fonction comme priorité absolue.

” Des études de ce type et les commentaires issus de nos conversations permanentes avec les clients valident et orientent notre stratégie et notre feuille de route produit “, a déclaré Muhammad Alam, Président et Chef de Produit, Intelligent Spend and Business Network, SAP. “Nous nous concentrons et investissons davantage dans le développement de solutions qui aideront nos clients à véritablement numériser la gestion des stocks afin de transformer les données en informations qui peuvent conduire à de meilleurs résultats commerciaux.”

La solution pour la gestion des stocks devrait être disponible pour certains clients d’ici la fin de l’année, avec une disponibilité élargie tout au long de 2023.

Les clients disposant de plusieurs environnements ERP peuvent simplifier la gestion de leurs achats

SAP Central Procurement, édition Cloud privé, est désormais disponible et aide les clients à améliorer la cohérence, l’efficacité, la visibilité et le contrôle. Avec cette nouvelle édition, les clients gèrent l’ensemble de l’entreprise sans devoir entrer et sortir des systèmes ou sans perturber les solutions et les flux de travail existants qu’ils ont mis des années à définir et à perfectionner. Les organisations peuvent gérer de manière centralisée les opérations d’approvisionnement à partir d’un seul endroit, quel que soit l’environnement ERP qui sert de back-end. Bien que les transactions individuelles soient toujours traitées dans chaque back-end, l’équipe en chargé des achats dispose d’une vue et d’un contrôle centralisé sur tous les éléments, des demandes d’achat aux achats, en passant par la recherche de fournisseurs et les contrats.

Parmi les clients, citons Accenture, Baker Hughes, Barrick Gold, CDW, Constellation Brands, Devon Energy, Duke Energy, Endress+Hauser, Fifty Thousand Hours, Guidant Global, Hilltop Holdings, Insight, INVISTA, Johnson & Johnson, KUKA, LG Smith Transport, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Mabe, Merck & Co, Ontario Power Generation, Pfizer, Sony Pictures Entertainment, T-Mobile, Thermo Fischer Scientific, Walmart, Van Genechten Packaging N.V., W.R. Grace et W.W. Grainger partageront leurs expériences et expliqueront comment ils naviguent dans un environnement marqué par des perturbations constantes de la chaîne logistique et d’évolution des tendances macroéconomiques.
