"Dow is setting an example across industry, working to create efficiencies that enhance productivity and increase the ease of doing business with Dow."

"SAP shares a common vision with its customers: creating the flexible business models that will define tomorrow's competitive edge and sustainable growth," said Henning Kagermann, CEO, SAP. "As one of our longest-standing customers, Dow's migration stands as a strong validation of SAP's clear vision, sound strategy and compelling road map for our customers' evolution to SAP's next-generation applications."
