① Background

Who They Are

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

This is a photovoltaic-cable company with domestic production and overseas sales: 3 domestic entities and 4 overseas trading arms (US, Germany, Singapore, UK). MTC rolled out SAP Business One with local fit across entities: domestic production and trading went live first, the US built the first overseas template, Singapore and Germany followed it, and at group level intercompany trade and CRM were connected, with batch costing down to each contract. This gives HQ unified, transparent supply-chain control.

② Drivers

Why They Needed This Upgrade

Before: Challenges & Opportunities

  • Domestic production with overseas sales and branches spread across countries, requiring both unified control and fast, market-specific go-lives
  • Purchase and sales documents between intercompany affiliates had to be linked to avoid duplicate data entry
  • Needed to clearly account for revenue, cost and profit of each project contract

Implementation Goals

  • Use one unified platform to support the cross-border model of domestic production and overseas sales, enabling group-level control and intercompany trade
  • Replicate go-lives quickly across overseas trading entities in a templated way
  • Integrate with the CRM system
