Key Considerations for SAP organizations:

• How the Airline Industry Leverages Technology to Manage Tourism Trends. Review the case study about how the German-based Thomas Cook Group implemented SAP S/4HANA to drive harmonization and automation across business units, hoping to create greater flexibility and agility within the organization.
• Understand the Impact of COVID-19 on the Airline Industry. The pandemic pushed businesses to operate in a very different way than they ever have before. In order for businesses to survive, they need to be able to quickly adapt to the rapidly changing landscape. The key to being able to do this is digitalization. With SAP systems, businesses can capture data from past transactions and use it to make decisions about the present and future. The emerging cloud products, SAP S/4HANA, and the reporting and analytical aspects of SAP Fiori applications give businesses the ability to see what the current situation looks like and make adjustments accordingly. By using these tools, businesses were positioned to mitigate some of the economic disruption caused by the pandemic.
• Explore Business Model Modernization with SAP Passenger Travel and Leisure Solutions. SAP believes that in the future, passenger travel and leisure companies will want to move toward simplifying distribution and act as true retailers. SAP further believes that with companies having the ability to deliver completely customized offers and services that precisely fit the preferences of an individual customer, a major portion of revenue will stem from up-selling and providing third-party offers to travelers. What this means for the industry is an increased focus on the customer, which is something SAP specializes in. SAP provides software that helps companies manage their customer data. In addition, SAP can help companies customize their offers and services to better meet the needs of their customers.

By working with SAP, passenger travel and leisure companies can be sure they are staying ahead of the curve and positioning themselves for success in the future.
