**Meet your team**:
Global challenges, such as social inequality, resource depletion and waste, and the growing climate crisis, are triggering increased stakeholder expectations and new regulations (legal requirements) and turned sustainability from a “nice-to-have” to a core business imperative. For close to 50 years, our unique selling proposition has been running the world’s most critical business processes integrated end-to-end, across the whole value chain. And with 77% of the world’s transactions touching SAP systems and more than 400,000 companies using SAP software, we are uniquely positioned to deliver digital solutions that enable companies to manage their - and the planet’s - limited resources productively, contribute to an inclusive economy and shape a sustainable future.

It’s important for SAP to focus on areas where we can uniquely make the most impact for customers in terms of sustainable profit and profitable sustainability: solutions for a circular economy, climate action, and people’s and societies’ welfare. This ambition depends on capabilities of many SAP Intelligent Enterprise Suite products. The Sustainability Management business unit is providing the foundation for this via the existing solutions for Environment, Health, and Safety and Product Compliance, and new developments for Product Footprint Management (PFM - Climate 21), Extended Producer Responsibility (Circular Economy) and Corporate Sustainability Reporting and Steering (CSRS). Together, these solutions form the backbone for SAP Cloud for Sustainable Enterprises.
