Cable Industry Innovations with SAP Cloud ERP | Expert Talk

Cable powers AI data centers, EV charging networks, and renewable energy projects. See how SAP helps cable manufacturers plan smarter.

Join host Simon Shores with SAP experts Mark Roepers, Stefan Weisenberger, and Chris Glander, plus Sandeep Mondkar, Partner at My Supply Chain Group (MSCG), part of NTT DATA, for a practical Expert Talk on the operational realities of cable and long products manufacturing.

Cable manufacturers face planning and pricing challenges that standard ERP systems were not built to handle: length-based materials, scrap minimization, real-time order promising, metal price volatility, and commodity pricing tied to exchanges such as LME and COMEX. This episode explores how SAP S/4HANA supports cable-specific requirements with embedded planning, advanced available-to-promise, PP/DS, commodity pricing, and a roadmap toward more autonomous, agentic supply chain planning.

In this Expert Talk, you’ll:
✔️ Learn why length-based planning can challenge traditional ERP—and how SAP Long Products Planning helps address it.
✔️ See a live demo of length-based aATP and MRP in SAP S/4HANA, including scrap minimization and real-time order promising.
✔️ Understand how SAP supports commodity pricing tied to LME and COMEX, including hedging and mark-to-market scenarios.
✔️ Hear how Prysmian, an SAP Innovation Award 2026 winner, achieved 70–80%+ efficiency gains with SAP Cloud ERP.
✔️ Get a partner perspective from MSCG, part of NTT DATA, on moving from SAP APO to embedded PP/DS and aATP architecture.
✔️ Discover what’s next for autonomous commodity management and agentic AI in supply chain planning.

Whether you work in cable, metals, long products, manufacturing, supply chain planning, or commodity-based industries, this discussion shows how SAP helps connect planning, pricing, execution, and business data in one integrated ERP foundation.

Detecting wildfires with ChatGPT

Detecting wildfires with ChatGPT

Detecting wildfires with ChatGPT

Most fifth-grade science projects end up in a closet. Ryan Honary’s became SensoRy AI—a wildfire detection system that identifies fires at ignition and alerts firefighters before a spark becomes catastrophic.

Ryan’s sensors monitor remote terrain for heat, smoke, flame, and plume activity. When a potential fire is detected, ChatGPT turns complex sensor data into clear alerts firefighters and residents can act on.

Follow Ryan from his garage workshop, where he tested his first prototype with a hair dryer, to the hills above Laguna Beach, where his sensor network now watches over the city. Along the way, he uses ChatGPT hands-free while working in the field and shows firefighters how to ask the sensors questions about a potential fire through a walkie-talkie he built using ChatGPT.

As he heads off to college, his goal remains the same – to help firefighters respond quicker and make communities safer from wildfires.

Knowledge Graphs & Ontology: How Agents Understand Enterprise Context

Knowledge Graphs & Ontology: How Agents Understand Enterprise Context

AI does not automatically understand your organization. It does not know how your products relate to your customers or what your internal terminology means. It needs a map.

Terms covered:
– Knowledge Graph: information represented as a network of connected entities and relationships rather than rows in a table, so an AI system can reason over how things relate
– Ontology: the formal framework that defines the concepts in your domain and how they connect, giving the graph its logic

In healthcare, an ontology defines what counts as a symptom, a diagnosis and a treatment. In finance, it defines instruments, transactions, counterparties and risk categories.

Together they give AI a shared understanding of your world, so it reasons accurately instead of guessing.
