Scope and Challenges
With plans for major global expansion, Grupo Choví needed to replace its outdated ERP system. Thanks to SAP S/4HANA and the SAP Fiori user experience, it has replaced manual paper-based processes and reporting with instant anytime, anywhere data access and full process control.
Based on the consumer goods market, Grupo Choví required an ERP System that would allow them to quickly respond to market changes to meet customers’ needs and evolving tastes. Hence, sales teams and management needed instant access to information rather than having to approach IT to run reports for them.
With SAP S/4 HANA Grupo Choví can now analyze a greater amount of information with unprecedented speed, which greatly accelerates their business processes. By using a single system, the data is consolidated and accessible from any area. All this has allowed the group to start up new business processes that were previously unthinkable.
The implementation process was 11 months, disbanded the legacy system on 31.12.2016, and launched S/4HANA on 01.01.2017. The new system will be used by 92 employees.
