Turn Commodity Volatility into Competitive Advantage with SAP ACM/CM

November 17, 2026 | 15:30 CET | Webinar

Gain Visibility. Reduce Risk. Protect Margins.

Commodity markets are becoming increasingly volatile, putting pressure on margins, procurement strategies, and supply chain operations. Agricultural businesses must navigate complex contracts, fluctuating market prices, regulatory requirements, and growing demands for transparency, all while maintaining profitability.

Organizations operating in agricultural commodity markets face several CRITICAL CHALLENGES:

  • Increasing commodity price volatility and margin pressure
  • Complex supplier, producer, and customer contracts
  • Limited visibility across procurement, logistics, and finance
  • Manual settlement and reconciliation processes
  • Commodity risk exposure and position management challenges
  • Regulatory and traceability requirements, including EUDR compliance
  • Disconnected systems and delayed decision-making

To remain competitive, businesses need integrated solutions that connect contract management, commodity trading, logistics, finance, and compliance processes within a single digital platform.

 

Learn how integrated processes can improve decision-making, automate settlements, strengthen compliance, and provide better control over commodity operations.

Join SAP and msg global to discover, with a live system demo, how SAP Agricultural Contract Management (ACM) and SAP Commodity Management (CM) help organizations gain greater visibility across procurement, logistics, risk management, and finance. 

 

GAIN INSIGHTS INTO how agricultural commodity businesses can:

  • Improve visibility across agricultural commodity operations
  • Manage complex contracts more efficiently
  • Reduce operational and market risk
  • Automate settlement and pricing processes
  • Gain real-time insight into commodity positions and exposures
  • Strengthen traceability and regulatory compliance
  • Improve profitability through better decision-making
  • Build a more agile and resilient business

  • Manage the complete contract lifecycle within SAP
  • Improve commodity position visibility and risk management
  • Streamline procurement, logistics, and settlement processes
