The SAP Partner Awards showcase top-performing partners that have excelled in helping customers bring out their best.

SAP has restructured the award recognition to provide more meaningful distinction, reflect our partners’ essential contributions, and ensure all award categories align to the Partner Ecosystem Success strategy. The newly created SAP Partner Awards replace previous recognition programs, including the SAP Pinnacle Awards, the SAP Global LoB Partner Excellence Awards, and the SAP Regional Partner Excellence Awards.

SAP partners are an essential extension of our team, driving success throughout the Customer Value Journey and helping our customers bring out their best. We rely on our partners’ unique industry expertise, implementation methodologies, and complementary solutions to meet the specific needs of customers, especially as they transition to the cloud and embed artificial intelligence (AI) into their business practices.

To exemplify our ongoing commitment to partners, our new awards framework continues the tradition of rewarding outstanding achievements and excellence. These awards recognize significant partner contributions in market units, regionally, and, most prestigiously, at the global level.

We are pleased to announce the 2026 SAP Partner Awards – Global winners. Only 23 partners are recipients of this esteemed award. These influential partners have illustrated the ability to help customers thrive through innovative services, products, and solutions.

The 2026 SAP Partner Awards recognize 50 categories globally and are based on performance from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2025. As in previous years, selections were determined using system-generated data on core weighted metrics and key performance indicators. A steering committee of global SAP representatives then viewed, vetted, and ranked the achievements according to internal criteria aligned with SAP’s communicated business strategies.

Recipients will be celebrated during SAP Partner Summit and SAP Sapphire and will be invited to exclusive networking opportunities with peers and SAP leadership. These partners will also receive a communication package to help promote their success. To further amplify this achievement, SAP will list winners on its website for a year and through its communication channels to maximize global exposure to prospects and customers.

Congratulations to the 2026 winners. We look forward to applauding your success at SAP Partner Summit and SAP Sapphire.

Karl Fahrbach is chief partner officer at SAP.

WALLDORF, Germany — February 19, 2026 — The Supervisory Board and Executive Board of SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) recommend that shareholders approve a dividend of €2.50 per share for fiscal year 2025. This is an increase of €0.15, or 6.4% compared to the dividend paid for fiscal year 2024.

If approved by shareholders and assuming the same level of treasury shares as of December 31, 2025, the total amount distributed in dividends would be approximately €2.919 billion (2024: €2.743 billion), representing a pay-out ratio of 40.7% (2024: 52.0%).

SAP believes that its shareholders should benefit appropriately from the profit the Company made in 2025. The Company’s dividend policy is to pay a dividend totaling 40% or more of Non-IFRS profit after tax.

The following dates are relevant for the dividend payment:

• Record date for dividend payment: May 5, 2026
• Ex-dividend date: May 6, 2026
• Payment date: May 8, 2026

Note to holders of SAP ADRs (American Depositary Receipts):
One SAP ADR represents one SAP SE share. The final dividend amount per ADR is dependent upon the euro/US dollar exchange rate. Since SAP SE pays cash dividends on the ordinary shares in euro, the exchange rate fluctuations will affect the US dollar amounts received by holders of ADRs. The final dividend payment by SAP SE to the depositary bank is scheduled for May 8, 2026 . The depositary bank will then convert the dividend payment from euro into US dollars as promptly as practicable.

Far East Organization (FEO) is the largest private property developer in Singapore, having built over 780 developments in the residential, hospitality, and commercial space segments for sales and lease. Its commercial portfolio comprises of retail, offices, industrial, and medical units.

To support ongoing expansion, Far East sought more streamlined and efficient lease lifecycle management operations, leading the company to progressively digitalize the entire leasing lifecycle.

Manual processes prompt change

The leasing process at Far East has traditionally been resource-intensive, involving multiple manual steps and significant human intervention across various stages, including pre-offer approvals via e-mail, rental computations, budget comparisons, contract drafting, amendment management, and rental change tracking.

This approach required substantial manpower and created multiple data entry points across the leasing lifecycle, which could affect accuracy and timeliness. Manual updates to rental terms and amendments also contributed to inefficiencies.

The project marks an important step toward operational excellence. By identifying and addressing these systemic challenges, Far East is laying the foundation for a fully digital, integrated leasing platform that supports seamless process flow, real-time data visibility, and more informed decision-making. It is a bold shift toward a strategic, data-driven approach to leasing that enhances agility, accuracy, and growth.

A strategic move forward

For this reason, FEO decided to undertake a strategic transformation to digitalize its leasing operations through a robust, intelligent, and integrated SAP ecosystem. This initiative unifies the full leasing lifecycle, from lead generation to contract execution and financial settlement, while enhancing operational excellence, data transparency, and customer service.

SAP was selected as the strategic platform for leasing digitalization due to its ability to deliver a comprehensive, end-to-end solution that connects business processes across the leasing lifecycle. With SAP S/4HANA at the core, Far East benefits from a powerful digital foundation that aligns real estate, finance, and operational workflows into a single source of truth, supporting data integrity, process consistency, and real-time visibility. SAP’s cutting-edge technologies—including SAP Customer Relationship Management (SAP CRM), SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), and SAP Fiori apps—enable intelligent automation, advanced analytics, and a clean core architecture that supports both standardization and innovation.

This integrated ecosystem empowers FEO employees to leverage real-time analytics for data-driven decisions and reduce errors and eliminate bottlenecks with automated tasks, streamlined processes, and optimized workflows.

The result? FEO experienced an 80% improvement in sales process efficiency at closing leasing sales.

Impact of the leasing digitalization project

The successful implementation of the leasing digitalization project has delivered tangible improvements across the organization, from the residential and commercial group business unit to its financial, operational, and compliance domains. By streamlining and automating leasing processes, FEO achieved over US$500,000 in annual cost savings while reducing operational overhead. The project eliminated redundant data entry through intelligent field derivation and automated rental computations, helping to minimize errors and boost workforce productivity.

In addition, the leasing lifecycle has been accelerated, cutting the lead-to-contract process and reducing contract generation time from days to just minutes. With 100% system uptime since go-live and strong user adoption, the platform has become a reliable tool for leasing operations. Intelligent validations, including budget checks and competitive rent evaluations, have strengthened regulatory compliance and enhanced decision accuracy. Collectively, these outcomes have strengthened FEO’s position as a digitally enabled real estate business, well-equipped for agile, data-driven portfolio management and continuous innovation.

FEO has made significant leaps forward in the property management industry. Employee productivity has increased with streamlined processes. Regulatory compliance with industry regulations and standards is managed with intelligent validation. And, analytics provide valuable insights into tenant behavior, rent trends, and property performance.

An SAP Innovation Award winner

For its property management achievement, Far East Organization was selected as a 2025 SAP Innovation Award winner in the Industry Leader category. Learn more about the real estate developer’s digital transformation.

Every business runs on data, but while companies invest heavily in understanding their customers and their markets, many struggle to access and act on their most valuable data of all: their people data. Without a clear, connected view of their workforce, leaders face difficulty answering fundamental questions, such as do we have the right skills to deliver on our strategy? Where are we at risk of turnover?  Do we have the right people in the right roles to optimize production and meet customer demand?

The impact of getting people analytics right is undeniable. According to research from IDC, organizations that prioritize insights models and performance processes rooted in people data are more likely to see meaningful gains across the board: 98% continuously realize stronger employee satisfaction, 90% experience a boost in workforce performance toward strategic goals, and 87% see improved employee retention.  

Yet for many organizations, the challenge isn’t recognizing the value of people data—it’s unlocking it. Data lives in silos, systems don’t connect, and insights that could drive strategy often stay buried in spreadsheets or dashboards. And let’s face it—the power of AI rests on data. Without harmonized data in one place, organizations can’t fully tap into AI’s potential to deliver proactive insights, predictive intelligence, and personalized recommendations that drive better business decisions.  

That’s why SAP announced the People Intelligence package in SAP Business Data Cloud, now generally available, earlier this year. Built on SAP BDC, People Intelligence is an AI-driven application that can bring together people, skills, and business data—from SAP SuccessFactors solutions and beyond—into actionable insights that help leaders make more informed people and business decisions.  

At Success Connect at SAP Connect earlier this month, we announced new prebuilt insights in People Intelligence for recruiting, learning, succession, career development planning, and performance and goals management—helping to make it even easier for organizations to translate workforce data into measurable impact. 

Turning data into decisions 

People Intelligence combines unified data from across the enterprise with AI-driven predictions to help forecast workforce needs, anticipate labor costs and risks, and strengthen workforce planning. And with Joule, SAP’s AI copilot, HR teams can instantly get contextual, actionable answers to critical business questions such as:  

• What’s the total count of our workforce?  
• Are employees being compensated equitably across similar roles and demographics? 
• What are the key skills gaps within my workforce, and what teams are most affected?  
• What’s the most effective way to acquire high-demand skills?  

Too often, workforce data exists in isolation from finance, supply chain, and operational metrics, which makes it nearly impossible to see how people decisions impact business results. People Intelligence can change that. By linking workforce insights to core business data in SAP Business Data Cloud, leaders can understand how talent strategies affect productivity, compliance, profitability, and agility, and they can act in real time. 

Building a future-ready workforce 

The future of work will be defined by rapid change: accelerating AI adoption, shifting skills requirements, and evolving employee expectations. Organizations that are hamstrung by siloed data or manual analysis will always be a step behind. 

People Intelligence helps provide the foundation and insights to move forward with confidence. By harnessing people data with the same rigor as financial or customer data, organizations gain clarity on how skills, roles, and costs are evolving—and the foresight to stay ahead of what’s next. 

Watch this People Intelligence deep dive to learn how data-driven insights can fuel your workforce strategy.
