SAP
The backbone system that runs the world's biggest companies.
What it is
About SAP
SAP (SAP S/4HANA being its current flagship) integrates finance, procurement, manufacturing, inventory, sales and HR into a single enterprise data and process backbone. Because so many large enterprises standardise on it, proficiency in navigating SAP modules and transactions is a core, transferable skill across finance, supply chain, logistics and operations roles.

Pro Tip
