A European waste management company focused on the circular economy wanted to capitalize on digital technology to drive a business transformation.
The company sought to boost productivity by increasing automation, introduce new business models by streamlining sales, materials and logistics processes, and become more responsive with real-time data access and sharing.
Infosys modernized the company’s ERP ecosystem with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain, and Cosmo Consult’s ERP solution for waste management, disposal, and recycling.
Key Challenges
The company’s operations were constrained by several factors:
- End-of-life technology with escalating total cost of operations limited scope for improvement
- A non-harmonized operating model caused an inconsistent user experience
- Inefficiencies in reporting made regulatory compliance challenging
- On-premise infrastructure led to slow time-to- market and operational inefficiencies
- Lack of an integration platform resulted in data inconsistency leading to invoicing errors and a sub-par customer experience
