With a single service partner for delivery and maintenance, the IT department no longer juggles multiple vendors, and management complexity and response times dropped markedly

① Client Background

Company Profile

To protect the client's privacy, this case withholds the name and identifying details; only industry and solution are shared.

This is a listed international precision-instruments company whose group core is SAP S/4HANA. Previously its APAC SAP Business One systems were delivered by multiple vendors across regions, lacking unified management standards, data norms and accounting standards; reporting was inconsistent and unusable for group HQ, maintenance was often untimely, and IT had to coordinate many vendors with differing practices and documentation.

MTC standardized management norms, data and accounting standards across the APAC branches (including Mainland China and Hong Kong), making reporting consistent and ready for group consolidation, with auditable and traceable operating data. With a single delivery and maintenance partner, IT no longer juggles multiple vendors, and management overhead and response times dropped markedly.

② Business and Management Requirements

Business and Management Requirements

Management Requirements Before Implementation

Previously, the local SAP Business One systems were delivered by multiple vendors across different regions, with no unified management standards, data norms or accounting standards; reporting was inconsistent and could not be used directly by HQ
Later-stage maintenance was often not handled in time; the IT department had to coordinate multiple vendors, each with different practices and project documentation, making IT management difficult
APAC branches such as Mainland China and Hong Kong required fine-grained management and consolidated reporting with group HQ

Implementation Goals

Unify the management standards, data norms and accounting standards across the APAC branches
Achieve consolidated reporting with group HQ, with all operating data auditable and traceable for the group
Deliver and maintain through a single service partner to reduce IT management complexity

Implementation Outcomes

Operating data is auditable and traceable, supporting unified group control over the APAC branches
