A SAP upgrade for a leading CPG company delivers post-merger integration and a platform for future business growth
 
The Client
A global consumer product manufacturer whose products are household names across the world.

The challenge
Our customer merged with a multinational consumer packaged goods giant, triggering the need to ensure operational stability and flexibility. Its systems were to be integrated with the IT systems of the parent company and a platform created for current and future business growth. To ensure our client stayed within the range of releases fully supported by SAP, upgrade to a new SAP release was also required.

the solution
The project created one of the largest SAP systems in the world. Our teams worked with the client to define requirements and develop the strategy roadmap. ZoomUp, our proprietary framework was used to facilitate the execution of functional assessment and provide a quick, quantitative and qualitative analysis of custom objects in the current and the target system to identify potential failures resulting from the upgrade.
