SAP - Our new digital home
Macron has always been a company with a strong focus on innovation and continuous improvement in all its forms. As is happening with the Headquarters, with the development of the Macron Campus, 2024 opens with another important milestone: Macron updates its digital structure by releasing the new ERP system - "S/4HANA Cloud " for the management of purchasing, sales, logistics and production activities.
SAP has been a market leader in the production of business process management software for years and develops solutions and modules that facilitate efficient data processing and information flow between companies.
In a world increasingly characterised by complexity and speed, which requires appropriate processes and systems that optimise ways and times, Macron places SAP at the centre of its ecosystem of applications and services to always offer the best experience to its customers and partners to support business development.
The project kick-off was in November 2021, and the first release took place in record time in October 2022 for the Administration, Finance and Control areas at the group level. In 2023, further updates were made in preparation for today's release, effectively completing the coverage of all Headquarters processes.
Each release ensured maximum business continuity for all customers and partners involved. Further releases will take place in 2024 upon completion of the migration of companies not yet involved in the project (MSHD).
Following this transition, a new B2B portal - Extranet- will be launched in the coming weeks, making our interaction more accessible and faster. You will be informed by your sales contact person when the transition to the new system takes place, and your direct account will provide you with all the information and support you need to access and make the most of the new portal.
We are investing in quality to grow further as a company is our mission: just like the future Macron Campus, which will configure an actual pole dedicated to making the spaces dedicated to employees and company development even more functional and avant-garde, so the new ERP will be the foundation on which we will build our future for the coming years.
"Quality and business development also pass through innovative tools that improve work processes and the relationship with customers and partners," said Macron's CEO Gianluca Pavanello. "On this path, having a company like SAP at our side means competence, professionalism and reliability, indispensable elements to take our digital house to the next level. We are constantly investing in the future by making targeted, high-profile choices to support our business's scalable and sustainable development globally, just as is happening with the Macron Campus project."
"We are proud to be Macron's partner for this important cloud transformation path that sees the digital core change to a more modern and scalable perspective thanks to SAP's latest generation technology," commented Carla Masperi, Managing Director of SAP Italy. "RISE with SAP will help Macron simplify processes and improve its efficiency and sustainability levels, accompanying the company in its innovative development and growth in its markets of competence and at the international level".
