SAP Distribution & Logistics

The Only Time a Promise Counts Is if We Keep It

Current Solution: Warehouse Management

Stop Losing Profit at the Point of Delivery

Underused SAP capabilities in distribution and logistics silently erode service levels, inflate costs, and damage customer trust.

Let’s fix that—permanently.

Why It Matters to Executives

Distribution and logistics execution is where customer promises become profit—or loss.

When SAP order management, ATP, and fulfillment processes are disconnected, companies miss OTIF targets, pay avoidable fines, and disappoint customers. The result? Margin erosion, lost revenue, and weakened competitive position.

Executives don't just need faster deliveries—they need predictable performance, trusted data, and scalable execution. That starts with optimizing how SAP is used across the entire fulfillment chain.

Common Business Challenges

Most companies experience friction where orders meet operations. These breakdowns aren’t just functional—they’re profit leaks in disguise:

  • Orders confirmed in SAP can’t be fulfilled on time or in full
  • ATP logic doesn’t reflect actual inventory, production, or shipping constraints
  • Sales, warehouse, and logistics teams operate from disconnected data or spreadsheets
  • Teams override SAP with tribal knowledge, workarounds, and manual checks
  • High-cost expedite shipments and last-minute labor overloads are the norm

If your teams rely on spreadsheets to answer “Where is this order?”—your SAP system is underperforming.

What We Solve

Reveal aligns distribution and logistics with the rest of your value chain. We bridge the gap between order entry and physical fulfillment by:

  • Activating SAP’s native delivery, shipping, and transportation planning capabilities
  • Synchronizing ATP, routing, picking, and inventory logic across order management and logistics
  • Driving behavior change so users trust SAP and eliminate offline workarounds
  • Exposing visibility gaps and poor handoffs that cause fulfillment delays

These aren’t technical issues—they’re execution gaps that cost you cash, reputation, and repeat business.

Business Benefits Executives Can Expect

Clients who optimize SAP with Reveal see measurable improvements across service and financial KPIs:

  • Up to 30% improvement in OTIF through better order-to-ship alignment
  • Reduction in expedited shipments and carrier penalties—saving millions annually
  • Stronger customer retention and satisfaction from improved delivery predictability
  • Leaner logistics operations through accurate planning and proactive fulfillment
  • Full visibility and trust in SAP—no more chasing spreadsheets or phone calls
A $2.2B consumer products company partnered with Reveal to realign ATP and fulfillment processes—improving OTIF by 28%, avoiding $4.6M in penalties, and boosting logistics efficiency by 22% using the SAP they already owned.

Reveal’s Approach: How It Works

Our proprietary oVo® methodology unlocks value trapped in your SAP system:

  • Discover where fulfillment and logistics breakdowns are costing you
  • Educate teams on the power of SAP tools they already have access to
  • Adopt new behaviors that replace workarounds with system trust
  • Sustain gains with role-based reinforcement and continuous insight

We don’t customize code—we optimize how your people use the system, for real, measurable change.

Why SAP—and Why Reveal

SAP has the built-in power to manage end-to-end distribution and logistics at scale. Most organizations use just a fraction of that power. Reveal changes that. We activate standard SAP functionality—like ATP, shipping conditions, picking strategies, and transportation planning—to work as intended. No new software. No rip-and-replace. You already invested in SAP. It’s time to get your ROI back.

How can SAP help optimize delivery routes and transportation costs?

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
A

SAP's Transportation Management (TM) uses advanced algorithms to optimize routes based on factors like distance, traffic, and delivery windows, while also managing freight costs and carrier selection. This results in minimized mileage, efficient resource use, and lower transportation expenses.

Q

How can SAP be used to track shipments and manage logistics events?

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
A

SAP's Event Management (EM) tracks key logistics events in real-time, providing alerts for deviations and integrating with external systems like GPS for end-to-end shipment visibility. This allows for proactive exception management and improved customer service through accurate tracking information.

Q

How does SAP support picking, packing, and shipping processes?

SAP and S/4HANA Insights
