Manufacturing Industry

The manufacturing industry is prone to rapid supply chain complexities, market conditions, intense competition from global markets and compliance. Manufacturers face huge challenges in enhancing speed and efficiency. To stay ahead of the marketing curve, spreadsheets or any homegrown software will not be enough. You need enterprise-ready software to manage and respond to the tune of market challenges. With SAP ByD implementation, it is easy to improve manufacturing operations with real-time information. You can meet compliance standards, gain high inventory and stock visibility, align supply, production and demand areas, view capacity allocations, manage multi-level production scheduling, and improve your client service anytime and anywhere.

Finance Industry

New financial regulations, repeated financial tasks, compliance needs, intense invoicing work and changing customer dynamics have prompted the finance industry to digitise. This, along with the need to manage complex law and tax regulations, accounts payables and receivables, asset management, and collection, has called the necessity for digitization. The conventional finance departments working in silos do not work anymore. The future is a digitally empowered and smart finance function.

SAP Business ByDesign eliminates today’s business needs of finance, simplifies all critical processes, and speeds up business decisions. With SAP Business ByDesign mobile features, you can glance at your key performance indicators, make quick decisions, and analyse capital, assets, expenses, risk and financial performance.

Retail Industry

With dynamic markets, tight margins and heightened customer expectations, relying solely on guesswork and legacy systems is not feasible to drive business success and meet customer demands. Mega mall managers and mega retail chain retailers are investing in cloud ERP solution software to meet the complex needs of the industry.

SAP Business ByDesign is an intelligent and advanced ERP solution that streamlines order fulfilment activities, manages vital aspects of warehouse and inventory management, and keeps track of your retail business anytime and anywhere. Moreover, with embedded business intelligence, the retail industry can identify which store has out-of-stock hurdles, track every item efficiently with serial number and batch tracking features, and much more.

F&B industry

Consumer buying patterns highly influence the food and beverage industry. Think about the in-demand trends such as high demands for fresh meals, strict compliance and regulations and meeting the dynamic and complex challenges of the food and beverage industry. The advanced cloud ERP solution helps the F&B industry to view and track supply chain information, maintain the recipe formulations and reformulations, automate workflows and ensure products are labelled as per their nutritional value. To stay competitive, it is vital to leave behind the legacy software and digitize your operations for managing expiry dates, record management, prediction and planning, and so much more.
