SAP CONSULTING

International SAP rollout

Your company is growing and you have established new sites in several countries? Now, the subsidiary shall be integrated into the parent company in terms of IT. We at Phoron have done rollouts of SAP systems in over 30 countries worldwide. Also in the "difficult" countries like Brazil.

INTERNATIONAL SAP ROLLOUT

Use the Benefits of SAP Software Globally

Our philosophy is to provide you with a global system that creates no dependencies and supports your subsidiary in its business, but follows the policies of the parent company.

Why SAP Rollouts with us?

Our approach aims to give you a system that does not create dependencies.

Planning and conception of your SAP rollout on a template approach

Standardized business processes and their respective uniform key figures create a premise for the rollout of an ERP system. The exact identification of these processes and as a result the conception of the group template is absolutely necessary.

Another important aspect is to understand the conditions and requirements of the rollout.

  • What are the long-term strategies of the company?

  • How do you foresee the company developing?

  • What are the technical conditions regarding current software and connections?

  • What number of employees and turnover size do the individual subsidiaries have?

Adapted to company size and business content

Since not every subsidiary has the same business purpose (production, sales, service, repair, etc.) an appropriate planning of implementations that match the company size and business content of the subsidiaries is required.
In this respect the group template forms the basis for the templates of the further sites. These are designed so that they can be easily adopted and supported. Smaller subsidiaries work with a template that is optimized for their business transactions and thus encourage higher user acceptance.

Our methodology creates no dependencies

As not every subsidiary has the same business content (production, sales, service, repair, etc.), it is necessary to plan implementations that correspond to the size and business content of the subsidiaries. The group template forms the basis for the templates of the other locations. These are designed in such a way that they can be easily adapted and supported. Smaller national companies work with templates that are optimized for their local business processes and thus promote greater user acceptance.


SAP versus local solutions

Do you operate SAP software in the parent company? This often raises the question whether it is useful to operate it in the subsidiaries too. Despite the functional scope of SAP ERP, which eventually may not be used to this extent at the subsidiary, the function is not decisive, rather it is the implementation effort and support.

Special case Latin America (Brazil, Argentina, Mexico)

Unlike other countries, the execution of a SAP rollout to Brazil, Argentina and Mexico is more complex and requires more effort.
