Seoul, South Korea – LG CNS, a digital business innovator, has announced the expansion of its footprint in the Asia-Pacific region by joining the SAP Regional Strategic Services Partner (RSSP) initiative.
Established by SAP Asia Pacific, this programme is designed to support fast-growing partners with industry-focused solutions, collaborative go-to-market strategies, and direct access to SAP’s regional expertise.
Under the initiative, the company can now scale its SAP practice across APAC and enhance collaboration with SAP to drive customer success. Unlike SAP’s Global Strategic Services Partner programme, the RSSP initiative supports high-potential regional partners that meet APAC-specific customer needs.
LG CNS has joined the SAP RSSP initiative as its fourth partner in Asia Pacific and the first from Korea. This aligns with the company’s ambition to extend its cloud ERP business beyond Korea and into the broader APAC market.
According to the firm, LG CNS has strengthened its partnership to drive advancements in cloud ERP services since its MOU agreement with SAP in 2023.
It is also driving ERP and SAP S/4HANA migration by combining its accumulated ERP expertise with AI, cloud, and big data technologies. Said move enhances the efficiency and stability of cloud ERP, allowing clients to maintain uninterrupted operations even in rapidly changing business environments.
Additionally, LG CNS delivers differentiated value to SAP clients in the Asia-Pacific region through its proprietary, proven solutions.
One example is ‘PerfecTwin ERP Edition,’ a testing solution that preemptively detects potential errors during the migration of SAP S/4HANA.
Another is ‘SINGLEX,’ a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform that integrates procurement management, CRM, R&D, quality management, and HR functions.
Commenting about the initiative, Hanshin Nae, senior vice president at LG CNS Enterprise Solutions Division, commented, “We will actively support clients in the Asia-Pacific region in driving business innovation through cloud ERP. With LG CNS’s AX expertise and solutions, we will further enhance client value.”
Utkarsh Maheshwari, senior vice president and head of global partner sales and services at SAP, also remarked, “SAP has a vibrant and fast-growing partner ecosystem in the region. Many of our APAC-headquartered partners have thousands of SAP-certified consultants worldwide, delivering hundreds of SAP-related projects every year.”
“We have a unique opportunity to do more with our regional partners and drive more innovations and benefits to customers. Welcome and congratulations to LG CNS on joining the SAP Regional Strategic Services Partner initiative,” he added.
Eligibility for the SAP RSSP initiative requires partners to fulfil key criteria, including strong regional presence, industry specialization, and a commitment to a joint sustainability strategy.
