Background and business issue
Our client, a leading manufacturer of consumer packaged goods was planning the implementation of SAP for their Thai operations. Their operations included 5 manufacturing plants and a distribution network. After the SAP system went live, they wanted to outsource the entire SAP operations to a 3rd party provider.
Given the scale of their business and the potential risks associated with this project, the client project sponsor sought advisory services from Freewill Solutions.
Approach/ Solution
Freewill Solutions was hired to act as an advisor to the project sponsor and to the project steering committee. Freewill provided the following services in this engagement :
- Defining project scope
- Establishing the project procurement process including RFP development for the implementation as well as the outsourcing (establishing service level agreements, etc.)
- Evaluation of bidders
- Technical support during contract negotiations
- Ongoing quality assurance during the SAP implementation
