SAPinsider Research Webinar- Technology Leader’s Strategic Agenda for 2026Watch this on-demand SAPinsider webinar and learn how our latest benchmark research translates into practical guidance for technology leaders navigating ERP optimization, AI adoption, cost pressures, and business alignment in 2026.
Technology leaders are entering 2026 under pressure to do two things at once: improve efficiency and control costs while still enabling innovation, new growth, and stronger data-driven decision making. SAPinsider’s latest research shows that these priorities are shaping everything from ERP roadmaps to automation, analytics, and AI strategies, making it critical for technology leaders to connect business outcomes with the SAP investments they make next.
In this on-demand webinar, SAPinsider experts unpack what the data means in practice. You will hear why optimization of existing SAP S/4HANA environments is emerging as the leading SAP initiative, why SAP BTP is drawing the strongest investment interest beyond core ERP, and how organizations are approaching AI in SAP even though many are still early in adoption. The session also examines the persistent challenges of aligning IT and business stakeholders, managing cost pressure during transformation, and responding to macroeconomic and geopolitical disruption without losing momentum on strategic priorities.
What you will gain from the session:
- Understand the top business and SAP priorities for 2026, including the strong emphasis on operational efficiency, cost reduction, revenue growth, and better decision making.
- See how leading organizations are balancing optimization of SAP S/4HANA with newer investments in SAP BTP, analytics modernization, process automation, and cloud ERP strategy.
- Learn where AI in SAP is gaining traction, which use cases are being prioritized first, and what is holding many organizations back from broader adoption.
- Hear how technology leaders are addressing the real-world obstacles that continue to challenge execution, from stakeholder alignment and budget pressure to skills gaps and ROI concerns.
- Get practical perspective on how global uncertainty, regulatory change, and cost pressure may reshape SAP roadmaps over the rest of 2026 and into 2027.
Watch the webinar on demand to learn how peers are prioritizing SAP S/4HANA optimization, BTP investments, analytics modernization, and AI-enabled transformation in the year ahead.

SAPinsider Benchmark Research – Technology Leader’s Strategic Agenda for 2026Technology leaders in the SAP space must balance the need to continuously innovate and remain current on SAP solutions and technology while supporting the needs of business teams and achieving organizational goals. In 2026, these leaders face significant challenges. Geopolitical instability and global macroeconomic uncertainty must be weighed against the need to complete and optimize ERP transformations, deploy AI within SAP applications, and manage costs effectively. This can make supporting business priorities while driving innovation a challenge that should be explored and understood.
To understand the strategic agenda for technology leaders in 2026, SAPinsider surveyed its community between December 2025 and March 2026 to identify their key priorities for 2026, what they are doing to support business goals, the biggest challenges they are facing as a technology leader, their SAP priorities and planned investments, the status of their ERP journey, and their planned use of AI in SAP-related initiatives. Additionally, respondents were also asked about the global factors they expect will impact their strategies in 2026.
Not surprisingly, increasing operational efficiency and reducing costs were identified by 70% of respondents as their top priority. Managing costs has long been important for technology leaders, even as they strive to implement technologies that support new or changed business requirements. While it is not always possible to manage costs, it may be more possible to increase the efficiency of existing processes, which can, in turn, bring cost savings. Technologies that help achieve these goals are crucial from a business priorities standpoint.
