SAP Invited to White House, Showcases App for Public Safety

SAP was invited to the White House to showcase 'Recalls Plus' as an innovative app that advances public safety by utilizing available government data in creative and powerful ways.

Recalls Plus allows parents to monitor recalls on their children's items such as toys, strollers, formula and cribs in a personalized and timely manner.

As part of the Safety Data Initiative of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the US Department of Transportation, "Safety Datapalooza" highlighted innovators from the private, nonprofit and academic sectors who have utilized freely available government data to build products, services and apps that advance public safety in creative and powerful ways.

"With Recalls Plus, we wanted to build an app that provides value directly to consumers, enabling them to live better. The White House's Safety Data Initiative allows us to present recall information to concerned parents that is relevant and no longer overwhelming. SAP is working on many such new and innovative apps for our customers to engage with their customers in new and meaningful ways," said Rishi Diwan, vice president, Product Management, Consumer Applications, SAP.
