Transform Your Project Quoting with Intelligent BOQ on SAP
Standardise Bill of Quantities, automate complex calculations and generate accurate quotations through an intelligent BOQ solution built for SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.
Many project-based organisations continue to rely on spreadsheets and manual calculations for estimating. ISS Data helps organisations simplify quotation management, improve consistency and protect project margins through an integrated BOQ Quoting Solution.
Move Beyond Spreadsheet-Based Quoting
For many project-based organisations, quotation preparation remains heavily dependent on spreadsheets, manual calculations and individual knowledge.
As projects become larger and customer requirements evolve, maintaining pricing consistency, version control and quotation accuracy becomes increasingly challenging.
ISS Data’s BOQ Quoting Solution helps organisations standardise estimating, automate quotation generation and connect the quotation process directly with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.
Common Challenges for Project-Based Organisations
Many organisations are looking for practical ways to improve quotation efficiency while maintaining pricing accuracy and commercial control.
Common challenges include:
- Multiple spreadsheet versions used for estimating
- Manual pricing calculations and inconsistent costing
- Long quotation turnaround times
- Limited visibility into project margins
- Knowledge concentrated with individual estimators
- Inconsistent quotation formats across teams
- Customer quotation revisions requiring significant manual effort

Improving the Entire Quote-to-Project Lifecycle
Quotations should not exist in isolation.
By integrating BOQ directly with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, organisations can connect estimating, sales, project execution and billing within a single, consistent process.
The result is greater visibility, improved governance and stronger commercial confidence throughout the project lifecycle.
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
The market-leading SaaS ERP, with standardised best-practice processes, embedded AI, and automatic feature and security updates twice a year. It covers finance, supply chain, procurement, manufacturing, asset management, and more all on one governed platform.
SAP Business AI Platform
This is the unified foundation that brings together SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), SAP Business Data Cloud, and SAP’s AI layer. At its heart sits the SAP Knowledge Graph, which gives AI agents a structured, semantic understanding of how your business actually works so they act on reality, not just patterns in your data.
Joule Work, Joule Assistants, and Joule Agents
Joule Work changes how people use SAP. Instead of clicking through menus, you simply tell the system what you need in plain language. Joule Assistants act as smart teammates for specific functions like finance or HR, and they coordinate more than 200 specialised Joule Agents that handle tasks like reconciliations, supplier onboarding, demand sensing, accruals, and dispute resolution, autonomously.
SAP BTP for Clean-Core Extensions
When you genuinely need to extend the system, those extensions are built on SAP BTP never inside the core. That protects your clean core, keeps you compatible with every SAP release, and keeps your AI capabilities current.
IRAS InvoiceNow and Singapore Localisation
You get native GST configuration, Peppol connectivity through SAP Document and Reporting Compliance, CPF and withholding tax integration, and Singapore-specific financial reporting. SAP pre-certifies and maintains it; ISS Data tailors it to your business.
SAP Activate Methodology and Adoption Resources
A proven deployment approach built for Public Cloud, including pre-configured industry content, fit-to-standard workshops, iterative testing, change management, SAP Learning access, and the global SAP community so your team is supported from day one.
The Proven ROI of GROW with SAP
Switching ERP is a big decision. GROW with SAP is built to give you the biggest return with the lowest risk.
Predictable IT Economics
Swap unpredictable hardware spend, DBA salaries, and upgrade projects for a clean subscription model. Singapore businesses may also qualify for the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) or Enterprise Development Grant (EDG), which can reduce your upfront cost.
Rapid Time-to-Value
With ISS Data’s fit-to-standard approach, pre-built industry templates, and SAP Activate, most GROW with SAP rollouts go live in 16 to 20 weeks. That’s significantly faster than a traditional ERP project and far less disruptive while it’s underway.
Eradicating Technical Debt
A clean core means no growing pile of custom code. Every SAP release including new Joule agents and AI features lands cleanly. You get continuous innovation without re-implementation pain.
Agentic AI Productivity from Day One
Joule Assistants and Agents take over work that used to eat up your team’s day: financial close (SAP’s Autonomous Close Assistant compresses close from weeks to days), AP processing, supplier onboarding, inventory reconciliation, and demand planning. SAP estimates AI agents could support up to 80% of the most-used business tasks inside SAP workflows.
Sustainable ESG Compliance
Emissions tracking, waste monitoring, and ESG metrics are built right into the platform. That means your sustainability data is generated automatically and ready for audit — no separate tools, no manual collection.
Three Strategic Pillars of GROW with SAP
Every GROW with SAP implementation we deliver in Singapore is designed around three pillars.
Run Efficiently

IRAS GST InvoiceNow Singapore's Phased Compliance Mandate
IRAS now requires every GST-registered business in Singapore to send invoice data electronically through the InvoiceNow (Peppol) network. This is a board-level priority, not just an IT task. Here’s how the rollout looks.
| Implementation Date | Who It Applies To | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 1 November 2025 | Companies voluntarily registering for GST within 6 months of incorporation | Active |
| 1 April 2026 | All new voluntary GST registrants, regardless of incorporation date or business structure | Active |
| 1 April 2028 | New compulsory GST registrants; existing businesses with annual supplies ≤ S$200,000 | Upcoming |
| 1 April 2029 | Existing GST-registered businesses with annual supplies ≤ S$1,000,000 | Upcoming |
| 1 April 2030 | Existing GST-registered businesses with annual supplies ≤ S$4,000,000 | Upcoming |
| 1 April 2031 | Existing GST-registered businesses with annual supplies > S$4,000,000 | Upcoming |
SAP Document and Reporting Compliance gives you a pre-certified Peppol access point and a Singapore-localised invoice engine built right into GROW with SAP. ISS Data sets up your GST categories, invoice rules, and Peppol connectivity as part of your standard go-live, so you hit your deadline without any last-minute panic.

Serving Your Customers' Customers The B2B2C Advantage
The most rewarding return from a GROW with SAP project is not what it does for your own operations, it’s the downstream value that flows to your customers and the customers they serve. An AI augmented ERP makes your customers better at their jobs, and that translates into better experiences for the end-consumers and partners who depend on them.
This is the real meaning of the Autonomous Enterprise value that compounds along the whole value chain.
| Industry | What GROW with SAP Enables | Your Customers Experience | Their Customers Experience |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discrete Manufacturing | AI-driven MRP, shop-floor agents predicting bottlenecks before they hit delivery | Distributors get on-time, in-full shipments and retailers stock the right SKUs | End-consumers find the right products at the right time and place |
| Wholesale & Distribution | Real-time multi-entity inventory, AI demand forecasting, intercompany automation | Retailers see accurate stock availability, faster fulfilment, fewer backorders | End-buyers enjoy reliable availability and consistent service |
| Energy & Clean Tech | Project accounting agents, contract intelligence, ESG reporting automation | Partners and regulators receive transparent ESG data and audit-ready financials | Society benefits from verified sustainability outcomes |
| Asset-Heavy Logistics | Fleet-to-finance integration, transport management, real-time margin analytics | Shippers gain live ETAs and proof-of-delivery in one stream | Consignees experience predictable, reliable deliveries with full transparency |
| Professional Services | Resource utilisation, project profitability, AI-driven billing agents | Clients receive accurate, timely invoices with full project visibility | End-stakeholders see projects delivered on time and on budget |
This B2B2C value chain is what sets a strategic GROW with SAP rollout apart from a simple technology refresh. We design every ISS Data deployment with this downstream impact in mind.
Our Streamlined Implementation Approach
A new ERP should not disrupt your business or take years to pay off. Our SAP Activate approach is built for the realities of the Singapore mid-market fast, controlled, and AI-ready the moment you go live.
Phase 1: Discover and Prepare – AI-Readiness and Value Mapping
We look at your current landscape, map your processes against SAP best practices, and score your workflows for Joule-agent suitability. Within two to three weeks, you get a clear scope, business case, ROI baseline, and timeline. No configuration happens until you’re confident.
Phase 2: Explore – Fit-to-Standard Workshops
We run structured workshops with your finance, supply chain, procurement, and operations teams, lining your processes up with SAP’s proven best practices. Where you genuinely need extensions, we build them on SAP BTP never in the core so your platform stays clean and upgradable.
Phase 3: Realise — Configure, Migrate, Validate
We configure your SAP tenant, run AI-assisted data migration (SAP reports a 35%+ reduction in effort), switch on Singapore localisation (IRAS InvoiceNow, GST, CPF), and run iterative end-to-end testing with your key users. Joule Assistants and Agents come online for your priority workflows in this phase.
Phase 4: Deploy – Go-Live with Confidence
We tightly coordinate cutover, hypercare, and early adoption support. From day one, we monitor system performance, user adoption, and process KPIs because go-live is a value milestone, not the end of the project.
Phase 5: Run — Continuous Value with the Customer Success Office
Our Customer Success Office brings new SAP innovations to your attention each release, expands your Joule agent footprint as SAP ships new agents, and tracks measurable value against your original business case month after month, indefinitely.
Why Choose ISS Data as Your GROW with SAP Partner?
Singapore Anchored Delivery
Our teams are based in Singapore, experienced across APJ, and fluent in the regulatory and cultural context you work in every day.
SAP Activate + GROW with SAP Certified Methodology
We follow SAP’s recommended methodology for SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, accelerated by our own pre-configured industry templates and reusable assets. That compresses timelines without compromising on quality or scope control.
Autonomous-Enterprise Ready From Day One
We don’t push AI to a “phase 2.” Joule Assistants and Agents go live as part of your initial scope, so your team feels the AI productivity boost from day one not months later.
Clean-Core Discipline
Every extension we build sits on SAP BTP. Every SAP release lands cleanly. Your platform stays fully upgradable and eligible for every AI capability SAP releases no painful re-implementation cycle every five years.
Customer Success Beyond Go-Live
Our engagement model is built around continuous value. Expect quarterly innovation reviews, agent expansion roadmaps, and KPI dashboards tied to your original business case because real ERP success is measured in business outcomes, not server uptime.
Industry Use Cases With Outcomes That Matter
We bring deep expertise to the mid-market sectors where real-time data, AI automation, and compliance precision make the biggest difference.
Discrete and Precision Manufacturing
Medical devices, electronics, industrial components. Real-time MRP and AI-driven planning agents flag capacity bottlenecks before they hit delivery — so you can commit, and deliver, with confidence.
Wholesale and Regional Distribution
Multi-entity inventory management, AI demand forecasting, and intercompany automation. Distributors shorten order lead times, eliminate stockouts, and gain better regional visibility — which feeds straight into better service for their retail and channel partners.
Energy, Commodities, and Clean Tech
Project-based accounting, fixed asset tracking, and HSE compliance. Streamlined contract intelligence and automated ESG reporting give energy firms and clean-tech operators the visibility to operate transparently and confidently.
Asset-Heavy Logistics and 3PL
Fleet-to-finance integration, transport management, and real-time margin analytics. Logistics operators gain complete supply chain visibility and tighter profitability control — improving the reliability they offer shipper clients.
Professional Services and Engineering
Resource utilisation, project profitability, and AI-driven billing automation. Professional services firms close projects faster, invoice more accurately, and lift client satisfaction with transparent project performance.
