From Idea to Recipe in SAP: A 360-Degree View of Innovation
Presented: Monday, May 5, 9:30 a.m.
As business applications evolve, users have come to expect more robust functionality but less interface complexity—especially true in creative R&D environments.
Linx/AS is leveraging the SAP NetWeaver technology platform to transform the product development landscape from a collection of disparate applications and data to a user-friendly, role- and web-based center of enterprise innovation.
Key Learning Points:
- Learn how to integrate front-end innovation tools, such as SAP Product Definition, SAP Resource and Portfolio Management, and SAP Intellectual Property Management, to provide better user experience, user adoption, and business impact.
- Defining the PLM Vision for formula-driven business: how to design a strategic product development environment to streamline commercialization and ensure compliance.
- How to roll out a role-based portals solution that works for all its users — from the administrator to the business user.

"Who Ordered the Hexamethyl Death?" and Other Tales of Procurement from SAP EH&S by MedImmune Inc.
Presented: Tuesday, May 6, 4:00 p.m.
Procurement of hazardous substances often falls outside of ERP-managed inventory for items such as experimental chemicals, bio-agents and radioactive materials. Likewise, EH&S departmental oversight of these transactions is hampered by lack of visibility into paper-based processes that require informed judgment and manual intervention.
In the end, it's inefficient and puts both the business and its employees at risk. MedImmune, a leading biotech corporation, integrated compliance into procurement. Together with SAP partner Linx/AS, MedImmune implemented
WorkSafe HAZCON, a user-friendly software based on SAP NetWeaver Portal solution that leverages SAP Environment, Health & Safety (SAP EH&S) with integration to SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SAP SRM).
Key Learning Points:
- Learn about making the case for compliance and the business benefits across the organization from EH&S to R&D to purchasing
- Learn how to manage inventory levels of hazardous substances within designated work areas and to conduct automated compliance checks against submitted purchase orders
- Learn how to roll out a role-based portals solution that works for all its users, from administrators to the business users
