The Strategic Transformation: Driving Efficiency with SAP Cloud and Fiori
The company opted for the emerging SAP S/4HANA 1709 along with Fiori for custom applications and a user-friendly launchpad. Recognizing the need for a robust project management solution, the company opted for the SAP PS module, a powerful tool designed to streamline project processes.
Transitioning from using internal orders to implementing Project systems for capital expenditures initiatives created numerous benefits for this strong player in the mining industry.
Though not the primary partner for ERP implementation at the time, Talan built a strong working relationship with the company as a secondary support partner on side projects.
When SAP ended support for S/4HANA 1709, the company called on our experts to have them lead the migration to RISE with SAP - SAP’s Cloud-based platform. The migration to RISE and subsequent upgrade to the latest version was completed in under 7 months.
