Introduction
In today's fast-paced market, companies need to innovate and deliver products faster than ever before. Isolated systems and fragmented processes can hinder this innovation. SAP Integrated Product Development (IPD) offers a solution by connecting insights, processes, and people across the product lifecycle, enabling organizations to bring innovative and sustainable products to market more efficiently.

SAP Integrated Product Development is a cloud-native Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution that enables organizations to define, develop, and deliver innovative and sustainable products faster by connecting insights, processes, and people.
Built on SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), it serves as a comprehensive product lifecycle management solution that digitalizes product development along design to operate scenarios for discrete manufacturers as well as along design to consume scenarios for process manufacturers. SAP Integrated Product Development is a key component of SAP’s comprehensive Supply Chain management portfolio.
SAP enables the Collaborative Product Development Process.
