SAP’s Sam Castro on AI and risk resilience in manufacturing

As the market leader in enterprise application software, SAP is helping companies of all sizes and in all industries run better by redefining ERP and creating networks of intelligent enterprises that provide transparency, resiliency, and sustainability across supply chains. Its end-to-end suite of applications and services enables its customers to operate profitably, adapt continuously, and make a difference worldwide.

“We're an enterprise business software and a technologies company,” says Sam Castro.

Castro is Senior Director, Solution Management, LoB Digital Manufacturing. The line of business covers the 27 manufacturing industries for which SAP provides software solutions. 

“All of those industrial companies have needs around operations visibility, operations and reporting,” Castro explains. “The different industries have different targets that they're after. Some are heavier on the asset side, some of them are heavier on product quality and yields, others are all about logistics and getting products around on time through the supply chain.”
