SAP is already everywhere. Everyone uses ERP in some fashion. Hell, some companies still support / run R/3. I think in 30 years, they'll just be barely starting an S/4HANA implementation when everyone's on the newest SAP thing

There's some shift ongoing and some positions/skills might be less "on the money" but for sure SAP is market leader. New products are released soon and will be market relevant (just think for example at the new sustainability suite).

At the moment I'm a procurement consultant in London, but want to make a move towards supply chain consulting.
