Embedded “Just-in-Time” Learning with SAP Companion: Transforming SAP Adoption in Nairobi, Kenya

In Nairobi, Kenya, a rapidly growing digital economy, speed and accuracy are crucial. Companies are investing heavily in updating ERP systems, moving to the cloud, and undergoing digital transformation. However, they still face a common challenge: user adoption. Employees often struggle to use new SAP systems, which leads to errors, delays, and lost productivity. This is where Embedded “Just-in-Time” Learning with SAP Companion makes a significant difference, especially with the support of SAP Enable Now and SAP Enable Now WalkMe solutions.

Nairobi’s Digital Acceleration and the Need for Smart Learning

Nairobi has become the technology hub of East Africa. The city is experiencing substantial growth in banking, telecommunications, logistics, agriculture, and fintech. Organizations are quickly modernizing their operations.

Major Players Driving Digital Transformation

• Safaricom
  
  
• Equity Bank
  
  
• Kenya Airways
  
  
• Kenya Ports Authority
  
  

These companies are consistently upgrading their enterprise systems to stay competitive.

However, studies of ERP implementations across Africa show that about 60 to 70% of system inefficiencies stem from low user adoption rather than technical issues. Employees might attend training sessions, but when they return to work, they often forget process steps or have trouble with complex transactions. Traditional classroom training is no longer sufficient.

Kenyan organizations need learning built directly into SAP systems; guidance that appears exactly when users need it — powered by SAP Enable Now and enhanced with SAP Enable Now WalkMe digital adoption capabilities.

What is Embedded “Just-in-Time” Learning with SAP Companion?

SAP Companion, powered by SAP Enable Now, gives guidance that is relevant to the task at hand within SAP applications.

Instead of looking for manuals or contacting IT support, employees receive:

• Step-by-step on-screen walkthroughs
  
  
• Field-level guidance
  
  
• Interactive tooltips
  
  
• Embedded process explanations
  
  
• Contextual microlearning
  
  

This means learning occurs within the workflow, not outside of it.

Real-Time Use Case Examples

For example:

• A finance executive processing a journal entry sees real-time guidance.
  
  
• A procurement officer creating a purchase order receives validation prompts within the system.
  
  
• A warehouse operator gets instructions during the movement of goods.
  
  

This results in quicker task completion and fewer errors.

Organizations that use embedded learning often see:

• 25 to 35% drop in support tickets
  
  
• 20 to 30% faster onboarding process for new hires
  
  
• Improved compliance and data accuracy
  
  

With SAP Enable Now WalkMe integration, companies can also track user behavior analytics and continuously improve digital adoption strategies.

In Nairobi’s busy business landscape, these figures are important.

Why Nairobi Businesses Need Just-in-Time Learning

Kenya’s workforce is young, tech-savvy, and growing quickly. However, this rapid growth also leads to frequent onboarding and changes in roles.

Industry Impact Areas

Banking & Financial Services

With strict regulatory compliance requirements, banks like KCB Bank need precise reporting and controlled processes. Embedded guidance lowers compliance errors and ensures consistent execution.

Telecommunications

Telecom giants such as Safaricom manage complex billing, customer management, and financial systems. Real-time SAP guidance prevents revenue loss from incorrect entries.

Aviation & Logistics

Kenya Airways and logistics companies need accuracy in procurement, asset management, and maintenance operations. Embedded learning supports continued operations.

Agriculture & Supply Chain

Kenya’s agricultural exports rely on accurate inventory, procurement, and distribution processes. Just-in-time SAP support keeps things running smoothly during peak seasons.

The Business Case for Embedded Learning

Kenyan organizations that invest in SAP S/4HANA or other SAP platforms often spend over 70% of their budgets on technology, but only less than 15% on training and change management.

Risks of Limited Training Investment

This imbalance results in:

• Productivity dips of 15 to 20% after going live
  
  
• Increased dependence on external consultants
  
  
• Delayed ROI realization
  
  

Embedded SAP Companion learning changes the approach from one-time training to ongoing performance support.

Instead of asking:
“Did employees attend training?”

Organizations start asking:
“Are employees performing tasks correctly in real time?”

That shift makes all the difference.
