How to Make Confident Decisions with Board, Even in Volatile Times

SAP APO is on its way out—but your supply chain isn’t. Many companies today are grappling with how to keep their planning flexible and agile in volatile markets and fragile supply chains. TraditionalSAP APO environments are increasingly reaching their structural limits. At the same time, it’s clear that development has been discontinued—and the official successor, SAP IBP, isn’t always the right alternative.

In the webinar on May 4, 2026, at 3:00 p.m., we will join forces with Board to show you how you can gradually decouple and restructure your supply chain planning from SAP APO—in a pragmatic, low-risk manner, with a clear focus on decision-making capabilities.

The focus of the webinar:

  • Current Planning Requirements: Why Volatility Calls for Flexible Planning Rather Than Perfectly Optimized Planning
  • ‍APO's End-of-Life: What the Phase-Out Means for Your Planning Environment
  • Alternative Approaches: How Board Can Help Through Integrated Planning, Scenarios, and Clear Decision-Making Logic
  • The Right Implementation Model: A Pragmatic Approach to Replacing SAP APO – Decouple, Focus, Replace Step by Step

This webinar is designed for all supply chain and APO managers, as well as IT-related departments, who want to future-proof their planning—making it more effective, not more complex.
