SAP and UPS had previously announced a distributed manufacturing collaboration to connect the manufacturing floor to the customer door. The collaboration integrates SAP solutions for the extended supply chain and Internet of Things with the UPS additive manufacturing and logistics network. Customers co-innovating in the early-stage production environment to streamline supply chains and get products to market faster and more cost-effectively as part of their digital strategies include Airbus APWorks, Fast Radius, HP Inc., Krones, Linear AMS, Moog, Sealed Air Corporation and Stratasys.
“The successful transition of 3D printing from prototyping to manufacturing requires integration with business IT systems. HP understands the importance of end-to-end integration to maximise efficiency and technology adoption and is joining the SAP co-innovation programme to help bring this to life,” said Scott Schiller, VP, 3D market development, HP.
“SAP Distributed Manufacturing can enable unprecedented opportunities to revolutionise design, manufacturing, logistics processes and business models,” said Saj Kumar, VP, Internet of Things and Digital Transformation, SAP APJ. “We are bringing together the innovative power of our customers and partners with SAP in this exciting next phase of our initiative to extend our reach and enable our vision for digital manufacturing.”

“Powered by HP Multi Jet Fusion technology, HP delivers a manufacturing-ready solution for end-part production as well as an open software platform to connect to business IT systems. With leadership from SAP and collaboration with other innovators in the industry, 3D printing will more quickly move into mainstream manufacturing and streamline supply chains.”
Registration for the early adopters programme is now open globally through January 2017, including Asia and Greater China, which are now served by the expansion of the UPS 3D printing network. Participating companies can explore distributed manufacturing benefits including reduction in parts inventories, cost-effective short production and prototype runs, quick delivery of parts, and access to 3D printing capabilities.
