Case Study
A leading Switzerland-based pharma multinational partnered with Infosys to integrate their newly acquired business and 18 country sites with their existing SAP global platform for EMEA and APAC regions. The objective was transformation and enhancement of the global template to enable:
- Financial and logistical transparency
- Operational effectiveness
- Reduced system complexity by eliminating multiple legacy systems
- Separate MES and SAP layer for production operational efficiency
- Better operation of warehouses with automated processes and enhanced 3PL set-up
- Efficient production planning via detailed scheduling
Key Challenges
- Existing blueprint documents lacked details needed to develop functional and technical specifications extending into the build phase
- Multiple iterations to standardize data and design templates since business teams had no prior SAP experience
- Data inconsistency across views/tables for major masters such as materials, customers and vendors impacting downstream objects
- Absence of a strong change control process adherence was resulting in multiple iterations of requirement approvals and closures
- Low business involvement and site readiness
