SAP Supply Chain: GIS
For an effective problem-solving tool, organizations should consider driving their business from a sophisticated map. This will improve decision-making and compliance by combining operational business data with geographic information.
GIS Defined
A geographic information system (GIS) creates, captures, manages, analyzes, and displays all forms of geographically referenced information. The key word is geography, meaning some portion of the data is spatial. GIS relies on data creation that is a multi-stage process, requiring management to create a reliable, accurate database. Adding geospatial data to the technical data for a holistic picture provides simple, intuitive, and map-based navigation.
Key capabilities include:

Adding geospatial data to the technical data for a holistic picture provides simple, intuitive, and map-based navigation.
Key capabilities include:
- Standalone web-based geometry explorer: Use results to initiate business processes from the map
- Standalone geometry editor: Support points, lines, polygons, and time-dependent geometries for enabled objects
- Customization of geospatially enabled solutions: Adjust or personalize user interfaces
- Federation of GIS data: Spatial business data from GIS applications, preconfigured support for Esri ArcGIS
GIS is used as a tool for problem solving and decision making through the visualization of data in a spatial environment. This is a powerful tool for a complete holistic analysis. It includes relationships between locations, where features exist, what is happening in an area, or how an area has changed over time.
Benefits are:
- Improve return on assets: Prioritize work, scheduled outages, and increase asset reliability
- Minimize operational risk: Enhance the power of data to solidify decision making and compliance
- Increase workforce productivity: Increase performance by maps enriched with federated GIS data layers
Vendor partner that can provide GIS capabilities include: SAP and Google.
