HELPING THE WORLD RUN BETTER WITH RISK-RESILIENT AND SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS AND SUPPLY CHAIN In the face of uncertainties, efficient and connected operations and supply chains enable resilience and agility to respond to disruptions and provide competitive advantage to organisations through faster time-tomarket, increased quality, and improved customer service. This session will bring customer stories to life and provide a strategic perspective of the SAP Digital Supply Chain portfolio and how advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Internet of Things (IoT), Robotic Process Automation (RPA), and Data Visualisation are part of the SAP portfolio today and will be expanded in the future roadmap. With around 60% of all global carbon emissions coming from supply chains, the path to net zero is critically dependent on building more sustainable supply chains. Creating a sustainable world requires leading by example – to record, report, and most importantly act on your carbon data.

10 SECONDS OF COURAGE The inspiring story of martial arts Sensei, Nadine Champion and the techniques she’s developed to find courage when she needed it. Nadine Champion is a fighter, inside the ring and out. As a martial artist with almost 30 years’ experience and an undefeated full contact fighter, Nadine has learnt a lot about inner strength. Not many people have the opportunity to spend twenty years learning about life from a living martial arts Master like Nadine did. In 10 Seconds of Courage, Nadine shares her story and passes on wisdom that helped her find academic and professional success, and even helped her win her fight against cancer. These are universally touching ideas of courage, fear, resilience, selfdoubt and belief, overcoming adversity, sacrifice, illness and the bravery to seize opportunities. People share similar fears and pains. Most are afraid of illness or death (for themselves or their loved ones), they are afraid of failing (especially publicly) but also are scared of never living up to their potential for a full life. 10 Seconds of Courage is a powerful call to action challenging readers to “change their thinking” in order to succeed. This session will provide inspiration and easy to use practical solutions for facing our fears, big or small. Concepts such as the ‘I Am’, ‘Why Not You’ and ‘Emotional Volume Control’ are simple but have a profound effect on changing your thinking for the better.

FUTURE GUARANTEED: HARNESSING SAP'S LATEST TECH TO SOLVE BUSINESS PROBLEMS TOWARDS SUCCESS We live in a fast-paced business landscape. Organizations face the critical challenge of trusting technology, systems, data integrity and adoption of the tools to meet critical business needs to successfully run assetintensive companies. Looking forward, there is a genuine need for integrating disparate systems, harnessing data for intelligent decision-making, and ensuring the futureproofing of your operations. This requires a high level of sophistication to manage your SAP system with all your other business applications. You need to decide what level of customisation is done with prebuild or built-in applications, automation, integration, and intelligent reporting. Rizing recognizes these challenges as opportunities for innovation and improvement. No matter whether you are on the S/4 HANA or still on ECC, you should be thinking of SAP BTP and wondering what’s the next step. In this session, we will provide you with knowledge on what many of our customers face as they move from legacy ECC systems, migrated S/4 HANA to the recent releases of S/4 HANA and the transformations they go through to achieve their business objectives. Code remediation, code development, low code/no code alternatives and much more will be explained through the understanding of the BTP suite of tools and capabilities to keep your core relatively clean to future proof your investment in EAM processes and capability. You will see specific real-life project examples that customers are utilising SAP technologies to meet their business requirements.

A DATA TRADIE’S GUIDE TO SURVIVING SAP PROJECTS Imagine that you have been nominated as the SAP Pro for your area and you’re now a member of a project team to develop, upgrade and implement changes, as well as still having to do your day job. Only the project entails five overlapping projects, across two interfacing SAP systems in two years. Well, it happened to me, and our challenge was to implement these projects (which included significant maintenance workflow and contract management changes and an SAP S/4HANA upgrade) with minimal interruption to daily operations. In this multi layered case study I’ll share my “Data Tradie” approach, where I draw upon my trade background from early in my career and apply that methodology as an SAP product owner and end user. The importance of processes when developing SAP requirements. Change management across all the projects. How we captured and rolled out changes to workflow. When you should start with a clean slate. Combining Functional Testing with User Acceptance Testing where possible.

TRANSITIONING TO SAP S/4HANA 2022: HOW TASNETWORKS DELIVERED THIS TRANSFORMATION TasNetworks successfully transitioned from ECC6.0 to SAP S/4HANA 2022 (on prem) in May 2023. Getting there required us to plan around SAP’s roadmap, decide whether to cloud or not to cloud, to Fiori or not Fiori, manage significant new business requirements, understanding multiple dependent projects, all while conducting a wholesale business transformation impacting people and processes. A five-year roadmap across the EAM and wider SAP footprint was developed resulting in moving away from SAP for field service management functions as well as a soft launch into Fiori and other supporting processes like SAP Signavio. This session will share how this work fitted into TasNetworks wider ICT roadmap and why it was a major driver for the timing of this project. A customer's view on making a successful transition to SAP S/4HANA A clear plan to deliver to a truly transformed business Understand the decision inputs and reasoning for landing on going to SAP S/4HANA 2022 on premise, with limited Fiori.

ASSET STATUTORY COMPLIANCE – CAN THIS REALLY BE MANAGED USING SAP? Asset Statutory Compliance is a major requirement at our AGL Sites. From pressure vessels to cranes and even generators, being compliant is a must to keep the electricity generating. Three years ago, every AGL site was managing their compliance differently; from executing and signing off inspections, to reporting to ensuring the assets are compliant. With the aim of standardizing our approach an AGL project team was set up with site representatives to understand and map out how Statutory Compliance will be managed at our sites using SAP as the driver. This Deep Dive session will be split into two parts: Part one: We’ll demonstrate how AGL standardized our procedures, gained endorsement from our site leaders, reviewed our strategies, and ensured the reporting was uniform across the entire fleet. Part two: We will show how this standardization was implemented into SAP through Master Data updates, reworking Preventive Maintenance Plans, utilizing Notifications Tasks, and using Fiori as the User interface.

AGL’S MENTAL HEALTH INCIDENT MANAGEMENT APP BUILT IN SAP USING HUMAN CENTRED DESIGN The issue of mental health and related impacts on the health and wellbeing of AGL’s workforce was increasingly becoming of material concern to the management. Unfortunately, the extent of and potential severity of this issue was relatively unknown due to a lack of accurate and dependable reporting and analysis of these types of incidents. There was an urgent need to create a process where employees and relevant leaders can adequately and confidentially identify, report and monitor psychologically impacting events in the workplace, or events which impact them in a way which requires support, acknowledgment or intervention by their colleagues, leaders, and relevant Human Resource partner and injury management coordinators. We developed a Fiori app using Human Centered Design (HCD) principles to record and confidentially process these incidents with enough smarts built in to determine the level of support required for processing the incident with sensitivity. By focusing on building genuine empathy for, and understanding of, the people that will be using the app, HCD approach helped make sure that the new app was tailor-made to meet the workers’ needs and wants. The audience will take away three key learnings: Psychosocial incidents are becoming a material concern for the current and future workforce. Human centered design principles help approach a problem with empathy to create solutions tailor-made for efficient use. Leveraging the integrations and security features available within SAP made it possible! The Benefits of first of its kind app built in SAP using HCD principles

INSPECTION CHECKLISTS IN SAP S/4HANA - A LONG TIME COMING! Inspection checklists are crucial for maintenance execution, reliability analysis, and audits. While maintenance inspections have traditionally been conducted by the means of paper checklists, a fair question is the digitalisation of this data. For years, maintenance operators have tried to solve this seemingly simple problem, resulting in all kinds of workarounds. Seek no more. In the latest S/4HANA release, inspection checklists are now standard EAM functionality. In this session, you will learn how to implement them effectively, in the context of the new S/4HANA nine-phase model for the maintenance processes. Key takeaways include: How to manage digital EAM checklists in modern CMMS environments. What is the new nine phase-based model for the maintenance processes in SAP S/4HANA.

THE MRP PLAYBOOK: GETTING THE RIGHT PEOPLE, PARTS AND TOOLS AT THE RIGHT PLACE AND TIME Wading through the work order, reservation and requisition lists needed to plan and schedule work at any organization is absolutely intimidating. On the surface, it seems nearly impossible to quickly identify and prioritize what tasks and exceptions need to be addressed first. Couple this with today’s Supply Chain uncertainty and you have the recipe for chaos and a lot of STRESS! Join us as we walk through the daily steps a Planner, Expeditor, Buyer and MRP Controller take to prioritize reservations, requisitions, and PO’s using simple and effective MRP exceptions to get the right people, parts and tools at the right place and time! We’ll also walk through some strategies our Maintenance Foremen use to quickly identify material needs for upcoming work and pinpoint potential delivery issues that might arise. We will take it a step further and walk through the custom reporting tools we use to identify opportunities to optimize inventory levels that maximize cash flow and minimize downtime and the administrative burden of spot purchases.

ACHIEVING SEAMLESS SAP EWM MFS INTEGRATION – WITHOUT THE MIDDLEWARE! Sigma Healthcare had outgrown its existing distribution centre in Hobart and embarked on a project to construct a new greenfield facility to increase capacity. The company was installing a conveyor at the new site to aid in the picking and packing process and was looking for a way to integrate it with SAP EWM processes, without the need for middleware. SAP MFS (Material Flow System) was successfully deployed to bridge the communications gap between conveyor PLCs and EWM. Sigma is now benefitting from seamless integration: “This is the first site that we have not used a third party to integrate our automation equipment with SAP, so having this direct integration has improved efficiencies, which has allowed greater capacity to flow through the process. Reducing human inputs and utilising scanning for pick verifications has also increased our pick accuracy for a more streamlined operation.” Hear how Sigma worked with SAP supply chain specialists The Config Team, to deliver a truly connected warehouse operation. This session will share: Benefits of direct MFS integration with SAP EWM Automation enabling SAP EWM to provide further improvements to warehouse operations How end user buy-in helped ensure a successful adoption

TRANSFORMING CONTRACTOR RECRUITMENT AT ENERGY QUEENSLAND WITH SAP FIELDGLASS Energy Queensland’s (EQL) Digital Division recruits a large number of contractors each year and processes large volumes of contract extensions. This process was maintained by a spreadsheet and required a contract to be manually created for each new contract and contract extension. In addition, each contract and extension required a document to be completed manually and forwarded to purchasing for creating or extending the purchase order. This session will share how SAP Fieldglass has fully automated EQL’s contract recruitment process, removing almost all manual processes. The implementation has achieved a 75% reduction in recruitment process times for contractors and seamlessly integrates with SAP S/4HANA. • The business drivers for removing manual recruitment processes • What this means for the contract recruitment function at EQL • How integration of SAP S/4HANA support EQL’s recruitment processes • What next and future opportunities

ACHIEVING SUPPLY CHAIN PERFORMANCE THROUGH INVENTORY DATA GROUPING AND PRIORITIZING Data grouping in a supply chain is essential for standard reporting and prioritizing of work in the “day in the life” of supply chain team members. Rather than working “top down” on printed “to do” lists there is a very practical way to group materials in the supply chain to do effective process and inventory analysis. Unfortunately, implementations of SAP do not apply effective data grouping techniques, and organizations often find themselves having to regroup to move forward. This session will take you through the important grouping options necessary to align with the standard prioritizing tools, techniques, and analysis available in the standard SAP suite of tools. Effective grouping is the first step towards workload prioritization in the supply chain functions. Learnings from this session can be taken back to your workplace to apply with “quick win” results. - Understand the primary building block towards successful supply chain integration - Realize the opportunity to work the most important material first - Your system can prioritize your work based on business value

REMOVING PROCURE TO PAY COMPLEXITY WITH PROCESS AUTOMATION AND FIORI APPS AT AUSNET AusNet implemented SAP ECC6 in May 2015, due to widespread business user concerns (200+) that SAP purchasing process was too complex and difficult to use. The decision was taken to continue to use SAP core procurement processes, but to develop Fiori applications that would enable the AusNet business users to have a much-improved user experience via SAP Fiori Application development. AusNet has developed a suite of SAP Fiori Applications to support the end to end Procure to Pay process, these include E-Buy – Create Purchase Requisitions, Purchasing Dashboard, Manage Purchase Orders, Invoice Workflow & PO Receiving and Purchase Order Approval. In addition to the Fiori application developments, extensive work has been completed to implement automated P2P processes; Purchase Requisitions (PR) are either converted into Purchase Orders via an automated program or are considered an exception for manual Purchase Order creation. 80-90% of AusNet Purchase Orders are being created automatically and work flowed for approval. Jon will share an overview of the Ariba, SAP and Fiori Application technology being used at AusNet. Followed by details of the SAP Process System Automation – PR to PO Conversion and Procurement Review Approval Workflows Demonstrate New Fiori Applications – Purchasing Dashboard and Manage Purchase Orders. Key audience takeaways include: Define, research and the understand the business problem Consider all potential solutions, decide on best solution, obtain senior management endorsement, and budget approval Design, build and test the solution, develop implementation plan and strategy to guarantee success

INVENTORY OPTIMISATION MIN/MAX IS COSTING YOU MORE THAN YOU KNOW And why you need to recalculate regularly. If cash (working capital) management is a focus or an area of concern in your business, come along and I’ll show you how to open the bonnet, tune the engine, and get moving! With this analogy, if you do not regularly calculate your MIN/MAX settings it’s like you are driving a vehicle from the 70’s! Big, heavy, gas guzzling monster! Time to upgrade! During this discussion, we will dig into the process to calculate and set your reorder point (MIN) and when and how to use MAX stock settings effectively. This will also include the need to understand the quality of your demand signal, the performance of your suppliers, and how standard SAP functionality has all that you need without any added configuration. Calculating the MIN/MAX settings do need attention and when not calculated, cash is WASTED! Let’s get into it! Key Takeaways: Clarity on the purpose and objective of the MIN/MAX settings When to stock and when not to stock Understanding the Demand Signal in one hand and Supplier Performance in the other How to extract cash asap!

TRANSFORMING CUSTOMER SERVICE AND OPTIMIZING PROCUREMENT WITH STANDARD SAP Two years after implementing Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and pandemic related supply chain issues easing up, we were still providing less than stellar customer service to our Operations team. Although we mastered MRP exceptions, we were still struggling to exceed the expectations of our customers. Our purchasing process was tedious, very labor intensive and time consuming. Armed with very little standard SAP procurement process knowledge, we spent a single day and learned how to use the tools we already had. We went from missing demand windows to exceeding expectations almost overnight. This success story will take you through the daily processes we follow, using standard SAP tools, to prioritize and optimize our procurement transactions and cut our procurement cycle time by 50-60%. Using standard SAP functionality to speed up and optimize purchasing processes. How the MRP process drives optimization between supply Chain and operations What MRP exceptions are and how they prioritize work Standard transactions around MRP and forecasting labor and materials

PRACTICAL INSIGHT TO BUILDING TRUST BETWEEN DEMAND PLANNING AND SUPPLY CHAIN EXECUTION Have you noticed how demand planners and supply chain functions seem to be in two totally different camps when it comes to agreeing on the demand plan? It’s very rare to find a production facility who trusts the demand plan and produces to the demand plan without question. Are you experiencing a highly political environment between demand and supply while the results boast forecast “accuracy” numbers that raise eyebrows? This session will unpack the typical situations that break down the confidence between demand planning and supply execution. Come hear about the changes organizations are making to build trust and confidence between demand and supply. Key audience takeaways: A roadmap that links the strategic planning with tactical execution A better understanding of the data required in MRP to stabilize the demand signal Understand how management routines in MRP provide input to demand planning accuracy
