Midsize companies are navigating choppy waters in today’s business landscape, facing a relentless onslaught of challenges that threaten to capsize even the most seasoned leaders. Business leaders are struggling with supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures and so on. The list of obstacles seems endless.

In the face of such headwinds, it’s no wonder that business leaders often turn to fragmented, hard to use and piecemeal technology solutions for help. Finding the right solution can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack.

How can midsize businesses steer a course to success amid these turbulent times? The answer may lie in a more integrated and user-friendly approach to technology solutions like GROW with SAP.

A Closer Look at GROW with SAP


In a bid to empower midsize businesses and help them accelerate their digital transformation journey, SAP recently launched a strategic initiative called “GROW with SAP”. It is designed to equip businesses with cloud-based ERP solutions that can enhance their competitiveness, drive growth and foster innovation.

GROW with SAP offers a range of pre-configured solutions, such as SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud, best-practice support, adoption acceleration services, a community and learning opportunities, all aimed at delivering rapid and cost-efficient results that can scale with the business in the future.

In this article, we’ll dive deeper into the various elements of GROW with SAP and explore how midsize businesses can leverage it to achieve their growth objectives.

Who can Benefit from GROW with SAP?


GROW with SAP is primarily aimed at midmarket companies that are in the process of scaling up, particularly those that do not currently use an SAP ERP system or are planning to introduce ERP for a subsidiary.

It’s important to note that only SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud is offered as part of GROW with SAP, which may have limitations on customization compared to on premise or private cloud editions. As such, GROW with SAP is best suited for businesses whose processes are not overly complex or specific.

For fast-growing companies that need to scale quickly to IPO or expand internationally, SAP has created “GROW with SAP for scaleups”.

It places a strong emphasis on scalability and speed, allowing core processes to be implemented within just four weeks. This enables businesses to add new customers, products and markets step by step, without increasing complexity.

Whether you’re a midsize business or a rapidly growing scaleup, GROW with SAP has something to offer.
