Reimagining Business Processes to Streamline Execution Global management consulting firm, Kearney, helps clients drive high-impact strategic transformations. Kearney realized it would have to go through its own transformation when it decided to reimagine its approach to numerous business processes. These processes were built around a 30-year-old homegrown finance system that was not meeting internal and external needs. Kearney’s goal was to simplify the landscape to enable shared services, increase the number of automated and digitalized processes, and gain real- time visibility into the business. SAP worked with Kearney during the sales process to make recommendations and then supported the company’s implementation journey as it automated and streamlined processes.
Challenges
• Complex system landscape & integration. No single source of truth • Innovation constraints • Lack of visibility of business processes, 360˚ view of customers • Lack of standardization & automation • High exposure & cost associated with risk and compliance • Lack of collaboration & capability to scale
“After a rigorous selection process, SAP S/4HANA emerged as the clear favorite across a broad cross-section of stakeholders due to better ROI and its international capabilities. To date, we are tracking well to that business case, with plenty more opportunity remaining in the pipeline.”
Outcomes
• Optimized operations, inventory and supply chain management • Reduced Costs • Improved finance operations
