SAP Business AI

The main motivations for using Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the field of SAP EHS and SAP Product Compliance are to increase efficiency and reduce the risk of non-compliance with regulatory requirements.

From this motivation, the following requirements for the AI solution architecture in the area of SAP EHS and SAP Product Compliance arise:

• Support for transactional business processes
  (e.g., automation of data transfer from supplier safety data sheets into product safety)
• Integration of data from SAP and non-SAP systems
  (e.g., integration of regulatory data or hazardous substance information)
• Agents for decision support
  (e.g., decision support for handling hazardous materials in occupational safety)

The functional requirements can be further broken down as follows:

• Automation of processes through machine learning and AI algorithms
• Assist & Augmentation for context-based information and actionable recommendations via assistants
• AI knowledge management to provide relevant information from large datasets, e.g., using data lakes
• Insights to identify trends and support decision-making through data analysis
• AI development to support the design and development process, e.g., through AI-generated drafts
