In 2020, Frito-Lay deployed SAP S/4 HANA as part of an ERP Financial implementation to integrate field-level agricultural data into enterprise finance and asset management processes. The deployment explicitly targeted farm-to-ERP connectivity for potato sourcing and was aligned with PepsiCo agricultural supply chain objectives and sustainability programs.
The SAP S/4 HANA rollout used the 2020 FPS02 baseline and included asset management and farming data capabilities, with the SAP S/4 HANA application serving transactional and master data functions relevant to contracts, asset tracking, and farming inputs. Supporting components implemented on SAP Business Technology Platform included SAP Analytics Cloud for smart dashboards, a SAP Fiori Agro app for agronomists and farmer interactions, and a blockchain application to record buy-back contract and seed traceability.
Architecturally the solution combined SAP BTP Cloud Foundry runtime, SAP Cloud Platform Integration and API management, Cloud Connector, Identity Authentication Service, REST API services, OpenWeatherMap and Image API integrations, and a multi-node blockchain network to enable real-time ingestion and validation of sensor, image and weather feeds. The implementation emphasized combined transactions and analytics on a single dataset to reduce latency, with SAP Analytics Cloud embedded edition providing real-time visualization and rule based recommendations for agronomists.
Operational scope began as a three-node proof of concept including Farmers, Aggregators and Agronomists, capturing process changes such as paperless contract capture via blockchain, direct communication channels between farmers and PepsiCo stakeholders, and digital field diary workflows that push agronomist inputs into SAP in near real time. SAP advisory and deployment offerings were used during implementation, including SAP MaxAttention, SAP ActiveAttention and SAP Cloud ALM, to support BTP, integration and analytics configuration.
Outcomes reported in project materials were a live status for SAP S/4 HANA and SAP BTP components, a documented 7 percent increase in potato yield, an estimated saving of 800 agronomist man hours per month and a 15 percent overall water saving, with dashboards and alerts supporting traceability and timely agronomic guidance.

In 2018, Frito-Lay implemented Avature CRM as its Candidate Relationship Management platform and embedded Avature CRM on its public careers website to capture applicant flows and application methods.

In 2019, Frito-Lay deployed Salesforce Field Service (ex ClickSoftware) as a core component of its Field Service Management strategy. Frito-Lay uses Salesforce Field Service (ex ClickSoftware) within its Field Service Management stack alongside Service Cloud and Commerce Cloud to support sales, delivery, and merchandising operations across its field organization.
The implementation centers on route scheduling and dispatch capabilities, mobile offline order entry, and inventory visibility for route drivers and merchandisers. Field Service Lightning functionality is used to ensure drivers' routes are appropriately serviced, while mobile apps enable employees to place orders and check inventory from loading docks or other low connectivity areas.
Integrations explicitly include Service Cloud as the backbone for Sales Hub, and Commerce Cloud powering Snacks.com and AI driven product suggestions based on sales history, geography, and segment. The architecture is cloud oriented within the Salesforce ecosystem, creating a linked flow between D2C commerce, back office case and order management, and field execution.
Operational coverage focuses on the 25,000 sales workforce, route drivers, and merchandisers, enabling a fluid communication channel between sales, delivery, and dispatch. Governance and process changes emphasize uniting the back office with field teams, and the solution provides the ability for drivers and merchandisers to quickly adapt and redirect resources when issues arise.
