KPMG’s tech-enabled approach is anchored in the Trusted AI framework — a strategic methodology for designing, building and delivering AI strategies and solutions rapidly and responsibly. KPMG adopts a unified process to systematically trace, assess and manage AI assets across the lifecycle and methodology designed to measure, test and publish AI transparency.
KPMG is adopting this strategy for clients and across its own operations to help ensure strong protection and future readiness. KPMG firms are leveraging SAP Cloud ERP to build integrated platforms and SAP Business AI to boost collaboration and growth, enabling faster, data‑driven decisions and measurable business outcomes firmwide.
KPMG has been at the forefront of participating in the latest SAP innovations, including:
- As one of the largest adopters of SAP Joule for Consultants, KPMG and SAP are pioneering the future of AI-driven consulting. SAP Joule for Consultants gives KPMG teams access to SAP’s most authoritative and current knowledge — reducing research time, accelerating project execution, and helping clients realize value sooner.
- Joule Studio, enabling the development of AI agents specifically designed for enterprise operations. This collaboration allows KPMG firms to co-create and pilot innovative solutions, addressing real-world use cases with advanced technology.
- SAP Business Data Cloud, enabling KPMG firms to help clients establish a unified, trusted data foundation aligned to their strategic objectives — unlocking agility and helping to improve decision‑making. By embedding AI within a structured, business‑led transformation approach, clients can modernize and scale insight‑driven innovation across their organization.
- Becoming a RISE with SAP Validated Partner, confirming KPMG firms' alignment with SAP best practices and experience in SAP Cloud ERP, helping ensure clients receive reliable and predictable support.
KPMG’s deepened collaboration with SAP comes at a pivotal moment, as AI and digital capabilities continue to transform industries worldwide. For example, FrieslandCampina, one of the world's largest dairy companies, embarked on a strategic program to modernize core IT systems and optimize business processes.
“The KPMG team has been instrumental in driving our transformation to SAP Cloud ERP Private as part of our ‘Optimus’ program. Through their pragmatic approach, supported by KPMG’s proven transformation methodology and target operating model, we are now progressing confidently toward global deployment. KPMG is leveraging AI-enabled tools, Joule and other automation solutions to further increase productivity and drive the program at high quality in close collaboration with our team and SAP. As part of the Optimus program, KPMG has also enabled the technical consolidation of multiple SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) systems and migrating the consolidated environments into SAP S/4HANA, with the first deployment already live and the remaining waves well underway. Thanks to the KPMG team’s open and transparent collaboration, strong SAP EWM capabilities and execution rigor, the foundation has been set for transparency and actionable insights — helping us unlock new value across our business and supply chain function.” — Daniël Tavares Delgado, Optimus Delivery Director and Business IT Director Global Business Services, and Ivo Ogink, Optimus Transformation Director, FrieslandCampina.
