Copperleaf Signs Endorsed Apps Agreement with SAP
Vancouver, BC, February 21, 2023—Copperleaf® Technologies Inc. (TSX: CPLF) (“Copperleaf” or the “Company”), a leading provider of enterprise decision analytics software solutions for asset investment planning, has signed an Endorsed Apps initiative agreement with SAP®. Pursuant to the agreement signed on February 1, 2023, Copperleaf and SAP will jointly promote Copperleaf’s solutions in conjunction with SAP solutions to help businesses streamline investment portfolio planning and project execution.
This agreement provides a commitment from both companies to pursue the endorsed program, certify Copperleaf’s solutions to SAP’s premium product certification process, and collaborate on the development of go-to-market plans.
SAP Endorsed Apps complement and extend SAP’s solutions. SAP Endorsed Apps is an invitation-only program, through which SAP identifies the top-rated partners and apps that are verified to deliver outstanding value to clients. Once a partner has been invited to participate, its solution must undergo a series of stringent tests—beyond standard SAP certification—to ensure it meets the requirements of premium certification. This designation provides SAP customers with confidence that these apps have demonstrated proven results and have been properly evaluated and tested by SAP.
Copperleaf Portfolio for SAP® solutions is an industry-leading Asset Investment Planning (AIP) solution that integrates with SAP Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Asset Performance Management (APM), Enterprise Portfolio and Project Management (ePPM) software, and S4/HANA®. The end-to-end solution will allow businesses to transform planned investment portfolios into executable projects within the SAP ecosystem.
This announcement follows Copperleaf’s achievement of silver partner status in the SAP® PartnerEdge® program in August 2022.
“This additional level of relationship between SAP, through the Endorsed Apps initiative, signals SAP’s recognition of Copperleaf’s industry-leading technology and the value our combined solutions can deliver to organizations globally,” said Paul Sakrzewski, Copperleaf CEO. “It’s been genuinely exciting to see the level of collaboration and mutual commitment between the SAP and Copperleaf teams—from the time we began working together on the PartnerEdge initiative, through to the signing of this Endorsed Application agreement. I truly believe the cooperation between SAP and Copperleaf will provide our mutual clients with best-in-class capabilities to further unlock value in their business and achieve their strategic goals.”
