The client wanted
to:
 |
Lower the cost
of purchased MRO goods and services |
 |
Establish the foundation
for information management and future process
integration |
After conducting a pilot, the client decided
to scale MRO supply intelligence to include 71
plants and deliver enterprise scale savings.
Consolidating data from over 15 distinct systems,
in one of the largest initiatives of its kind
threw up a series of unexpected challenges for
the client. The common material master data refused
to support threshold capability levels. Inappropriate
classification schemes resulted in poor search
capability and limited business-relevant information.
The engagement timelines and a follow-on ERP implementation
were at risk.
