TOKYO - October 15, 2024 - NTT DATA, a global digital business and IT services leader, today announced the launch of its latest solution, "SAP integration with SiGREEN", as part of the Siemens Xcelerator business platform. Siemens, a leading technology company, provides the SiGREEN carbon emission management tool that empowers companies to make data-driven decisions on their decarbonization strategy.

Crucial master data about products is often maintained in ERP systems. This information needs to be shared with SiGREEN, and an automated data flow can be established by connecting SiGREEN to the ERP systems.

As SAP S/4 HANA is one of the widely used ERP systems, NTT DATA developed its "SAP integration with SiGREEN" solution to help manufacturers efficiently connect product master data in SAP S/4 HANA with SiGREEN. A proof-of-concept at Swiss Innovation Park Biel/Bienne successfully validated the solution's ability to automate the end-to-end product data integration process between SAP S/4 HANA and SiGREEN.

The 'Catena-X ready' SiGREEN solution enables auto manufacturers to connect with trusted business partners to gather emissions data from their value chain. NTT DATA along with NTT Communications, is committed to helping automotive clients securely connect to Catena-X and make data-driven decisions that reduce their product carbon footprints.

Siemens Xcelerator for digital transformation

The combined solution will be available to customers as part of the Siemens Xcelerator Marketplace. Siemens Xcelerator is an open digital business platform and marketplace with the ambition to create a powerful ecosystem of partners who can jointly accelerate digital transformation tailored to customers' specific business goals.

Siemens' SiGREEN - Dynamic, Data-driven and Scalable

SiGREEN simplifies the management of product-level emissions, also known as the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF). It allows companies to manage and reduce emissions along the entire value chain.

  • Actual Data - The aggregation of up-to-date and actual emission data along the value chain enables the determination of a 'dynamic' carbon footprint, which can be used to identify emission hotspots and to quantify improvements more accurately.
  • Standard Conformant - SiGREEN is conformant with all relevant industry standards, including Catena-X for automotive, Together for Sustainability for chemistry, as well as ISO and PACT. This industry agnostic approach allows for the cross-industry collaboration needed for product decarbonization.
  • Verifiable results - Companies can determine the complete emissions data of their products and verify them within established standards. Thus, carbon footprints can be verified at every stage of the value chain.

"We are excited to launch the 'SAP integration with SiGREEN' solution on the Siemens Xcelerator Marketplace, a pivotal step towards accelerating the decarbonization of industries. We are committed to helping our clients utilize this solution to make accurate data-driven decisions on reducing their product's carbon footprint across the value chain. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Siemens to develop new solutions that will help customers scale SiGREEN software and accelerate their transition towards a sustainable future." says Hidehiko Tanaka, Head of Technology and Innovation, NTT DATA.

"We are thrilled to partner with NTT DATA in launching the 'SAP integration with SiGREEN' solution. This collaboration represents a significant milestone in our mission to drive decarbonization in the automotive industry. By seamlessly connecting SAP S/4 HANA with SiGREEN, we empower companies to manage their product's carbon footprints and make data-driven decisions for a sustainable future. We are committed to continuing our work with NTT DATA to develop innovative solutions that enable our customers to scale their sustainability efforts and achieve their decarbonization goals." says Gunter Beitinger, Senior Vice President Manufacturing at Siemens Digital Industries and founder of SiGREEN.
