Live from SAP Customer Council in Berlin, Greg Hutcheon interviews Dr. Abaid Goda, Head of Group ID and Digitization at KWD Automotive. They explore KWD’s journey on SAP Cloud ERP, why a standardized, group-wide operating model matters in automotive manufacturing, how clean-core principles reduce complexity by avoiding custom exits, and where SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) enables seamless integration with third-party systems. You’ll hear how the team followed the standard activation methodology from discovery to run, organized UAT with local and global process owners, and tackled master data preparation and real-time interfaces, culminating in their first go-live in January.
