Given the current state of the Digital Era, AI, and Cloud Capital Expenditure (Capex) management requires higher levels of visibility, enhanced flexibility, and degree of control. This paper explores the effectiveness of a centralized SAP based Capex management approach towards helping to optimize the investment oversight, improve the approval workflows and enable real time reporting. The findings show how centralized SAP solutions can enable a scalable data driven decision making to support the growth of enterprise for the AI and the cloud landscape through case studies, system reviews and leader interviews.
