Sipchem signs an agreement with SAP

Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia — Sahara International Petrochemical Company (Sipchem) has signed an agreement – a first-of-its-kind in the petrochemical industry in the Middle East – with SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) to explore areas of cooperation. In terms of the agreement, SAP will provide cloud services and software solutions as part of Sipchem’s digital transformation plans, in order to raise the level of efficiency and achieve the greatest benefit for its customers and employees.

Over the coming years, Sipchem will work with SAP to transfer data from Sipchem's internal data centers to the cloud platform (Sipchem Cloud) and organize data there, which will contribute to providing a secure infrastructure for better data protection. To support this process, Sipchem will adopt RISE with SAP, which is a holistic and flexible offering that goes beyond a technical migration to the cloud. Instead, the solution enables adaptable and sustainable transformation of a company while realizing a faster time-to-market for new capabilities and applications.

The agreement will enable Sipchem to use integrated cloud digital solutions specifically designed for all areas of the business sector, including resource planning, sales, procurement, supply chain management, finance, human resources, and other fields.
