The Challenge
A global FMCG business was preparing for a major ERP transformation, moving away from legacy SAP ECC. With multiple platforms under consideration, including:
- Oracle
- D365
- S/4HANA
- Workday
The organisation needed an experienced Programme Director to lead vendor selection and oversee delivery across multiple regions. The role required deep ERP expertise, strong commercial judgement, and the ability to operate at pace in a complex global environment.
The Solution
Our ERP specialists appointed a highly experienced Programme Director with a proven track record of delivering large scale, multi-platform ERP programmes. Following a structured RFP process, the Programme Director led vendor selection and shaped the overall transformation roadmap. Working closely with JSS, a full transformation team was built across:
- Change management
- Data
- Testing
- Integrations
- PMO
- Cutover
- Functional leadership
The Impact
Over a two-year programme, the business successfully transitioned from SAP ECC to a modern ERP platform, achieving smooth go-lives across multiple regions. The client attributed this success to the quality and timing of the transformation capability put in place, noting the value of JSS as a long term delivery partner:
JSS quickly became a trusted partner. Their ability to provide the right specialists at the right time was instrumental in the success of our programme. The strength of the transformation we built together was a major factor in us hitting our milestones and ultimately achieving a smooth go-live.
