The active co-design of SAP Cloud ALM is a real added value for us and our customers. Meet the SAP Cloud ALM Product Owners in person, getting answers to current open questions and maintaining and deepening our relationships is of course great. In addition, the announcement of the Business Transformation Center for optimizing data migrations was very exciting and we will continue to follow this topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1920x1224.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1920x1224.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1024x653.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-768x490.png 768w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1536x979.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-2048x1306.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The sessions of &#8220;The power of LEGO\u00ae bricks&#8221;, the lessons learned from Philips Domestic Appliances (both Koen van Sabben) and Phytobiotics (Jacob Riebensahm) and the great guest presentation &#8220;Make your users curious about transformation to a digital world&#8221; by Timo Deiner also contributed to a great mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_10562-1920x1440.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32381\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_10562-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_10562-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_10562-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_10562-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/IMG_10562-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>blue.works was represented on stage several times. On the second day, Carla Lingg &amp; Thomas Aeschlimann from the fenaco cooperative spoke in detail about the Business Transformation Suite of SAP Solution Manager, Focused Build and SAP Cloud ALM and how the collaboration with blue.works helped them. This was not just about the tools, but much more about the right ALM mindset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/fenaco_blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1920x1440.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/fenaco_blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1920x1440.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/fenaco_blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/fenaco_blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/fenaco_blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/fenaco_blueworks_SAP-ALM-Summit-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another big highlight was blue.works participation in the ALM Partner Challenge Hackaton. This year&#8217;s ALM-athon challenge was &#8220;How can partner solutions or 3rd party integrations add value for customers by extending SAP Cloud ALM with standard APIs?&#8221;. We worked on this question over the last months with our good partners Qalmari and CPRO and presented our idea live on stage. In fact, our idea was voted the winner by the audience! We are very proud of that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On behalf of our team and partners &#8211; thank you to everyone who voted for our idea! We started even marketing it as a product <a href=\"https:\/\/www.alm360.cloud\/en\/hub\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong>alm360.cloud\/hub<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ALMathon_2022_winner_blueworks_-1920x1440.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ALMathon_2022_winner_blueworks_-1920x1440.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ALMathon_2022_winner_blueworks_-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ALMathon_2022_winner_blueworks_-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ALMathon_2022_winner_blueworks_-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/ALMathon_2022_winner_blueworks_-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As an active member of the SAP community, blue.works was particularly represented at the Summit this year. By sponsoring the evening get-together at the Gin Bar, we wanted to make our contribution to the success of the event and thank the community. We were delighted that so many people came together to network and relax after an intense day full of new information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP-ALM-Summit_Sponsorship.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32323\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP-ALM-Summit_Sponsorship.png 1360w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP-ALM-Summit_Sponsorship-774x1024.png 774w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP-ALM-Summit_Sponsorship-768x1016.png 768w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP-ALM-Summit_Sponsorship-1161x1536.png 1161w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1360px) 100vw, 1360px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the key takeaways from this year&#8217;s SAP ALM Summit was, that the transition to SAP Cloud ALM brings many new benefits and that&nbsp;blue.works&nbsp;is just the right partner to help on this journey.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1224\" src=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022-1920x1224.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-32326\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022-1920x1224.png 1920w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022-1024x653.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022-768x490.png 768w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022-1536x979.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022-2048x1306.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It was very nice to refresh SAP contacts and make new ones. During the four days we could feel the inspiration and hunger for new knowledge in the Summit premises. We could have great discussions during the breaks, sessions and perceive a vibrant community that is positively focused on the future challenges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The largest gathering of the SAP Application Lifecycle Management community &#8211; SAP ALM Summit EMEA 2022, took place this year in October in Mannheim, Germany.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":32326,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[211,214,206],"class_list":["post-32310","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-company-news-en","tag-blueworksalm","tag-sap-alm-summit","tag-sap-cloud-alm"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/SAP_ALMathon_2022.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32310","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32310"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32310\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":32385,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32310\/revisions\/32385"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32326"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32310"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32310"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.blue.works\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32310"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
