SAP SE has entered into a partnership with Tevva, a battery-electric and hydrogen-electric truck company, to transform its IT environment and support the development of the UK’s first hydrogen-electric truck.
Tevva is the first hydrogen-electric and battery-electric vehicle manufacturer to select SAP to update its IT and technology infrastructure to deliver sustainable transport and logistics across the UK.
As a new SAP customer, Tevva will integrate RISE with SAP S/4HANA Cloud to ensure its IT infrastructure is aligned with product demand.
In addition to transforming its core ERP via SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Tevva will also be leveraging Capgemini’s out-of-the-box Auto Path package. Auto Path enables the supplier to align its operational and production plans with execution and performance measures, bringing it up to speed with global competitors.
Both SAP and Capgemini are empowering the organization to simplify its IT estate and fully embrace the benefits of the cloud. SAP S/4HANA Cloud will be adopted across manufacturing, procurement, finance, and supply chain – providing an improved modernization process.
Umar Khan, head of Grow with SAP, EMEA North, said: “Our partnership with Tevva is one we’re extremely excited about. It is a company that shares the same values and vision as ourselves, that a sustainable, zero-emissions future is very possible and collaborations like this are critical to achieving that goal. They’re the first electric hydrogen vehicle manufacturer to embrace RISE with SAP, recognizing just how critical investment in technology is for the future.”
Asher Bennet, Tevva CEO and founder, said: “At Tevva we’ve worked hard to deliver a product that is sustainable, scalable and fit for the future. We firmly believe that the post-fossil fuel future, which is quickly approaching, will see a new range of technologies and fuels take center stage in the transport industry. But it was only right to support the development of this that we examined what we had in place and understood what might be possible to bolster our rapid growth.
“SAP and Capgemini have, no doubt, helped with our expansion and we have certainly benefitted from their input and innovation.”
