SAP's annual partner quality plan and quarterly quality reviews form the basis for the global partner quality program and provide a framework to monitor joint performance and measure success. Partners are required to submit annual quality plans that showcase how they will continue to improve during the year ahead. In addition, the quarterly quality reviews enable joint risk monitoring via open bilateral communication as well as identifying and preventing issues.
