The challenge

OMCO had expanded rapidly and, with complex multi-national supply chains, OMCO needed a state-of-the-art Group-wide ERP system to:

• Achieve consistency across all operations, while meeting local needs
• Accelerate and integrate information flows
• Drive up performance and efficiency, with automation wherever possible
• Support centralization, integration and growth.

As well as finding the best ERP solution, widescale digital transformation was needed to modernize OMCO’s infrastructure, maintain operational excellence and future-proof the business.

The solution

Throughout a rigorous selection process, OMCO undertook detailed requirements and cost-benefit analysis, testing not only the system, but also each supplier’s agility, consulting and delivery capabilities and commercial framework. Atos, with its local partner, was selected thanks to a uniquely integrated and flexible SAP ERP solution (covering finance, production, sales, procurement), plus proven ability to manage the roll-out. Atos met all OMCO’s needs through standard and bespoke functionality and re-engineered processes.

Business benefit

SAP ERP is the backbone of OMCO:

• With just one rapid data-flow, OMCO can better control its processes
• With automation, operational performance is better and faster
• Comprehensive, detailed data generates new insights
• With common financial reporting, there is just one set of accounts across all countries – and with automated data entry and financial reporting, OMCO can focus on financial forecasting and predictive decision-making.

OMCO is future-proofed for emerging technologies.
