If your resolutions fall into categories such as “lose weight”, “quit smoking”, “get fit”, “eat healthy food” or “drink less alcohol”, then you are off to a good start by paying more attention to your health. But who will be there for you when you are sick, besides your family and friends? The answer is easy - a reliable healthcare provider.


Cardinal Health, a healthcare services leader, supplies for more than 100,000 delivery locations with pharmaceutical and medical products and services every day. While business was expanding substantially, Cardinal Health realized that they had to step up their game. As a result, Cardinal Health partnered with SAP Active Global Support, through an SAP MaxAttention engagement, to monitor real-time business metrics. SAP MaxAttention is a valuable investment they’ve made to help them provide continuity to their business and insights on improvements.
