LeverX has assisted with the Greenfield implementation of SAP S/4HANA ERP and its further support and optimization.

Customer

Group of European construction companies.

Challenge

Our customer’s business consists of five companies; one of them has already implemented the SAP S/4HANA system. However, that implementation project was challenging and did not unlock the full potential of this ERP.

Additionally, another company within this holding wanted to improve inter-company cooperation based on SAP S/4HANA and required the implementation of the ERP from scratch.

Solution

LeverX assisted with the improvement and maintenance of the SAP S/4HANA system already implemented at one of the companies. We also assisted with the Greenfield implementation of the SAP S/4HANA ERP at another company, as part of the customer’s business.

Project Scope

LeverX participated in the Greenfield implementation of the SAP S/4HANA ERP and SAP S/4HANA Application Management Support. Our key project tasks were:

  • Implementing SAP S/4HANA, including FI, CO, MM, SD, PS, and PPDS modules using a rollout implementation model
  • Updating SAP S/4HANA system to newer version SAP S/4HANA 2020
  • Supporting SAP S/4HANA post-go-live application management
  • Providing services for SAP Basis support and maintenance
  • Providing services of SAP system customization and additional development
  • Communicating with business users and supporting their daily tasks on request

Implementation of SAP/4HANA FI/CO/MM/SD/WM/PS and PP modules included the following business processes and functional areas:

  • Ledger (bookkeeping) records
  • Sales & Distribution
  • Project management, including CPM (Construction project management) 
  • Purchase (Supply) 
  • Settlement with creditors
  • Stock records 
  • Accounting for long-term investments
  • Budget Execution Control, Budget adjustment maintenance
  • Production planning and management

Results

The SAP solutions implemented and supported by the LeverX team helped the customer achieve maximum process automation, transparent value chains, and optimized financial and logistics processes. After outsourcing the system support to LeverX, the company reduced the costs for its own IT team.

Since new requirements and integration points arise during the system operation, we continue to assist the customer with supporting the SAP S/4HANA system.

Furthermore, for 2023, we have already planned the SAP Extended Warehouse Management implementation and the current system upgrade to SAP S/4HANA 2022.
