The image depicts a pie chart with different colored segments. Several figures in hats are shown, with lines emanating from the pie chart towards them. This suggests the chart is being used to represent or distribute data or information to the individual figures.

Run with "always on" oversight.

Integrating

SAP integrates across defense and government systems to maximize the flow of intelligence to prevent, prepare, respond/recover to/from natural disasters, environmental and complex emergencies, and world healthcare challenges. SAP promotes alignment and collaboration in the interests of effectiveness in facing the increased frequency of disasters.

Run like a humanitarian agency.

SAP's promise

  • Developing agile information collection solutions with integrated analytics to facilitate more innovative strategies
  • Delivering intelligent resource stewardship translating real-time to suppliers, operators, facilities, aircraft, vehicles, and vessels - and even operators' sensors and devices.
  • Ensuring resilient solutions that operate collaboratively in austere and limited communication environments.
  • Providing a data driven environment that listens, understands, and improves the military decision making process to propel new strategies for enhancing the experience of soldiers and security personnel.

The Future:

The demands placed on defense and security organizations for cognitive and physical superiority driven by tailored, fully integrated, intelligent solutions will only increase. It will be combined with additional sustainability requirements to reduce waste and carbon footprint. Do "more with less" becomes even more real. The conclusion is an Intelligent Enterprise that can be deployed effectively, updated rapidly, and coordinated across networked allies to support an increasing variety of defense and security missions.
