cbs Showcases End-to-End Data Analytics Capabilities at SAP NOW Southeast Asia and Australia

cbs Corporate Business Solutions, a global SAP Gold Partner, presented its comprehensive approach to data-driven transformation at SAP NOW events across Southeast Asia and Australia in 2025. The sessions demonstrated how enterprises can unlock measurable business value through modern analytics platforms.

The company’s achievements were recognised at the 2025 SAP Partner Awards for Southeast Asia, where it received honours as Best Business Transformation Partner, Best BTP Partner, and Best Midmarket Partner of the Year – Singapore. These accolades highlight cbs’ long-standing commitment to co-innovation with SAP and its proven track record of enabling clients to build intelligent, data-driven enterprises.

Integrated Analytics Architecture

At the heart of cbs’ analytics strategy is an integrated data architecture combining SAP Datasphere, SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC), SAP Business Data Cloud, and Databricks. This unified platform aims to transform fragmented data landscapes into cohesive, insight-driven systems that connect business strategy with operational execution.

The result is a seamless flow of information across finance, operations, and sustainability reporting. Organisations can consolidate planning, integrate predictive analytics, and establish a single, governed source of truth. cbs’ preconfigured CapEx, OpEx, and revenue/cost planning packages in SAC and SAP Datasphere provide an accelerated path to advanced analytics and scenario-based forecasting.

By leveraging these integrated technologies, businesses gain the flexibility to scale analytics as their data maturity evolves. The architecture supports hybrid and cloud deployments, enabling smooth migration from legacy SAP BW environments while maintaining data integrity and compliance.

Transforming Agriculture with Precision Data Intelligence

A standout example shared at SAP NOW Southeast Asia showcased how cbs is applying Precision Data Intelligence to revolutionize palm oil plantation management. By merging satellite and drone imagery with Internet of Things (IoT) soil sensors and machine learning models, the solution integrates geospatial and operational data into SAP Datasphere and visualises insights through SAP Analytics Cloud.

This innovation replaces manual inspections and routine irrigation with real-time, data-informed decisions. Workers in the field can query the system in natural language and receive contextual responses powered by GenAI. The integrated platform correlates soil health, rainfall patterns, and weather forecasts to optimise watering schedules, labour deployment, and harvest timing.

Business Value Creation

Across its engagements, cbs emphasizes data-driven business transformation as a continuous journey rather than a one-time project. The company’s analytics framework includes:

• Faster decision-making through real-time insights and predictive intelligence.
• Reduced waste and improved resource utilisation via process transparency.
• Better ROI through connected financial and operational planning.
• Stronger compliance and ESG alignment through unified reporting capabilities.

cbs continues to invest in SAP Datasphere, SAP Analytics Cloud, and Business Data Cloud to empower enterprises with smarter, connected data. These innovations enable organisations to shift from merely collecting information to creating measurable business value through actionable insights.

What This Means to SAPinsiders

Integrated analytics drives digital transformation across industries. For SAP leaders and professionals, cbs’ approach shows how integrated analytics can speed up transformation across sectors. Instead of dealing with separate tools or isolated reporting systems, organisations can leverage SAP’s comprehensive data ecosystem to enhance visibility, efficiency, and innovation at scale. This unified approach enables faster decision-making, shorter time-to-value, and more consistent performance across global operations.

Unified data and AI provide agility and operational resilience. CIOs and data executives can see cbs’ work as a model for creating resilient, insight-driven enterprises. The company’s approaches demonstrate that business value is maximised when analytics, AI, and planning support agility while simplifying operational complexity. This empowers organisations to anticipate change, optimise resource allocation, and maintain business continuity even in volatile markets.

Data-driven planning drives growth, compliance, and sustainability. For SAPinsiders aiming to achieve measurable results from their digital investments, cbs’ showcase at SAP NOW presents a clear message: data is the core of transformation for modern enterprises. By aligning strategy, sustainability, and technology, cbs helps businesses turn analytics from simple reporting into a driver of growth and competitive advantage. The result is a more intelligent enterprise that strikes a balance between profitability and purpose, driving innovation while meeting regulatory and environmental objectives.
