“Team, I want to reach out and say thank you for the great support during our SAP rollout. Your knowledge and assistance with problem-solving were very beneficial and were much appreciated. You were an excellent partner, and I would welcome the chance to work with you again if such a situation arises again in the future.” – Controller NA, supply chain

While they had implemented SAP ECC 6.0 in some European plants, they sought to roll out SAP to all their global plants using the same template. They needed a partner for this global SAP rollout who would help them simplify, customize, and centralize their IT infrastructure and streamline operations for optimal efficiency.
