SHIFT LOG Episode 5 - Industry Value Engineering: Unlocking the Business Case for Change

Industry Value Engineering: Unlocking the Business Case for Change Digital transformation in asset-intensive industries is never just about implementing new technology; it's about achieving measurable business value. Yet many organisations struggle to articulate the why behind their SAP programs. That’s where Industry Value Engineering (IVE) from SAP comes in. In this episode, we dive into what Industry Value Engineering really is, how it helps organisations quantify the impact of change, and why it's more than just a business case. We unpack the three critical stages value discovery, value realisation, and value optimisation and discuss how SAP’s tools and advisory frameworks guide clients through each phase. You’ll hear how IVE helps bridge the language between IT and the boardroom, align digital investments with strategic objectives, and set realistic targets grounded in industry benchmarks. Whether you're at the start of your transformation journey or mid-flight and need to course-correct, this episode offers clear insight into how SAP's value-led approach can be the foundation for smarter, faster, and more credible decision-making. Finally, we share practical advice for customers and partners looking to engage with SAP’s value advisory services and how doing so early can be a game-changer.
