WALLDORF, Germany, March 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) has released the SAP® Integrated Business Planning 6.1 application for response and supply, a new addition to its innovative cloud-based planning suite. The application allows companies to plan based on demand priorities and adapt quickly when faced with demand-upside opportunities or supply disruptions.

With this release, all of the major components of SAP Integrated Business Planning are now available. The cloud-based suite now supports the end-to-end planning processes of sales and operations planning, demand sensing and planning, supply and allocations planning, response planning and inventory optimization. These applications, along with embedded analytics, alerting and collaboration capabilities, enable SAP customers to achieve greater visibility, shorter planning cycles, and faster response to changes in demand and supply.

"SAP Integrated Business Planning for response and supply continues our innovative path toward a holistic, seamless, easy-to-use, planning suite," said Hans Thalbauer, senior vice president, Extended Supply Chain, SAP. "Since its original release in 2012, the suite has grown dramatically in cross-industry customer adoption as well as in functional breadth.
