Client Story
Support for ERP rollout, S&OP redesign and change management
Mission Critical Priority
The supply chain organization at a large American manufacturing company was underway with two major transformational changes: rollout of a new ERP system and redesign of the S&OP process.
How Gartner helped
The client held inquiry calls with a Gartner analyst to discuss supply chain planning challenges and proven solutions, and leveraged examples and case studies from our benchmarking database to validate and optimize her efforts.
Business impact
The company’s new ERP system and S&OP process are highly streamlined, reducing redundancies and other inefficiencies. The client estimates that a traditional consultant would have charged hundreds of thousands of dollars for 3-6 months’ work; Gartner’s annual membership costs a fraction of that amount.
