In 2015, Lenovo implemented SAP ERP ECC 6.0 as its ERP Financial core to centralize billing and financial transaction processing. The initiative spearheaded the design, development and deployment of integrated digital workflows linking customer complaints, sales pipeline management, and billing across the organization.
Deployment centered on SAP ERP ECC 6.0 billing and core financial modules, configured to support accounts receivable, invoicing, and general ledger processes consistent with ERP Financial capabilities. Configuration work emphasized transactional integrity and system-side billing orchestration to ensure consistent invoicing sourced from upstream sales systems.
Integrations were explicit, with Salesforce.com handling customer complaints and pipeline management, SAP CRM managing sales processes, and SAP ERP ECC 6.0 serving as the billing engine. The implementation required data synchronization and interface orchestration between Salesforce.com and SAP CRM into SAP ERP ECC 6.0 for order-to-cash and case-to-billing continuity.
The program established cross-functional governance to align sales, customer service and finance workflows, formalizing handoffs from Salesforce.com and SAP CRM into SAP ERP ECC 6.0 billing processes. Governance activities included defining master data ownership and exception handling pathways for customer complaints that touch billing, along with staged rollout coordination across business units within Lenovo.
Operational scope covered finance, sales and customer service functions within Lenovo's manufacturing operations, with SAP ERP ECC 6.0 positioned as the financial system of record.

| DataRobot | Legacy | DataRobot Cloud | ML and Data Science Platforms | AI Development | n/a | 2017 | 2018 |
In 2017 Lenovo deployed DataRobot Cloud to improve retail sell out volume forecasting for Lenovo Brazil, targeting retailer-level demand estimation within supply chain and retail planning functions. DataRobot Cloud, operating in the ML and Data Science Platforms category, was used to accelerate predictive model development while the Lenovo Brazil analytics team retained its existing forecasting process flows. Before the deployment the team had identified 59 candidate variables that could affect sell out volume, including average product price, sellout rebate period, Google Analytics rankings, media campaigns, and price differences between Lenovo and competitors. The initiative led by Rodrigo focused on clarifying which variables were truly predictive and had the most significant impact on estimating sell out volume.
DataRobot Cloud was applied as an automated machine learning layer to standardize model training, feature evaluation, and validation, producing explainability outputs that highlighted variable importance and enabled faster iteration. The platform was used by the Lenovo Brazil forecasting team to operationalize repeatable model builds and to strengthen feature selection workflows without altering core forecasting ownership. The team reported that model development happened a lot faster and produced more accurate outputs, while the automated feature assessment clarified variable prioritization for retailer sell out forecasting in the ML and Data Science Platforms context.
