Our Clients' Stories

PETERS SURGICAL –
Management of the ERP Project up to the go-live and user takeover

“Progress Management's experience of the work needed at each phase of a project along with the appropriate risk prevention action required was decisive for the success of PETERS SURGICAL's ERP changeover”
Laurence SAFONTCFO and Project Director – Péters Surgical

Business Sector: Medical Devices
ERP Solution: IFS
Length of intervention: 14 months (11 Project / 3 OQ) – 2018/2019

An experienced Progress Management project manager bolstered and supervised the PETERS SURGICAL in-house teams, providing invaluable support in their IFS ERP implementation project (Finance, Control, Purchasing, Logistics, Production, Sales).

A realistic time frame was established to relaunch the project, which had digressed from the initial schedule, and the various teams involved were unified around a shared objective.

Agile coordination made it possible to prioritize, guide, and follow up everyone’s tasks to ensure project milestones were completed on time. The new system was successfully deployed at the three French sites within the projected deadlines.

TERRENA – BU Semences
Feasibility study for the implementation of a Core Model IS based on SAP S/4 HANA

“The SAP expertise of the Progress Management consultants and their extensive experience in the agri-food industry very quickly gave us a full and pertinent overview of the project to be carried out.”
Ludovic DECOURCELLECIO, Groupe TERRENA

Business Sector: Agricultural Cooperative – Seed production
Solution: SAP S/4 HANA
Length of intervention: 2 months – 2018

To further the development of the Cooperative’s seeds business, particularly internationally, and to support the reorganization of the business unit, a feasibility and opportunity study examined the modernization and streamlining of the existing information system by implementing a Core Model solution based on the SAP S/4 HANA ERP.

This analysis, carried out by the business and IT teams, made it possible:

To describe the target solution: the processes covered and their criticality, the target application mapping needed to integrate the related applications and interfaces
To produce a benchmark with SAP user organizations in the same business
To define and size the target technical architecture for SAP S/4 HANA
To define the implementation road map and procedure: the subdivision and overall scheduling of the project, the project methodology and organization
To evaluate the budget for the project, including recurring costs and options: External functional and technical implementation costs / Internal costs / Change management / Technical infrastructure, hosting, and facilities management / SAP licenses and software maintenance / Outsourced third-party application maintenance.
