CLIENT

  • Master data standard
  • Standardised ERP configuration and build

 

OUR SOLUTION

  • Gain a greater understanding of the business requirements from the ERP upgrade
  • Review existing documentation
  • Develop processes, standards and guidelines to deliver on the requirements

  • Business requirements documentation
  • Process documentation for:
    • (Weekly) Work management
