In today’s rapidly evolving world, businesses must continuously adapt and innovate to stay ahead. Finding new and better ways to operate is no longer optional - it’s essential.

Business processes and best practices have traditionally served as maps, guiding organizations to save time, avoid errors, and reduce costs. However, what happens when these established maps can no longer address novel and complex challenges? The answer lies in creating new pathways to success.

Introducing Next Practices

Next Practices is a thought-through initiative by SAP and IBIS Prof. Thome AG, designed with the customer in mind. It aims to help businesses enhance their process management, driving greater efficiency and innovation.

IBIS, a trusted SAP partner, brings deep expertise in SAP S/4HANA and Business ByDesign. Together, we deliver innovative tools that align business processes with organizational goals and prepare businesses for the challenges of tomorrow.

Unlocking Value for Businesses

This initiative bridges process execution analysis with the best practices outlined in the SAP Plug and Gain framework, building on the robust foundation of the SAP Best Practices initiative. It empowers organizations to:

  • Discover deep process insights based on process mining technology.
  • Identify what works and what doesn’t in your processes.
  • Gain actionable improvement opportunities.
  • Enhance process excellence with direct compatibility to SAP Signavio Process Intelligence
  • Achieve operational excellence in a dynamic environment.

The following diagram illustrates how Next Practices leverages SAP Signavio Process Intelligence data to drive process optimization and innovation.
