Turning a finance system replacement into an enterprise-wide operating backbone

Context

An ERP programme was being run as a finance-only system replacement, led by external consultants. Organisational changes had been made, but process and data harmonisation were absent — the ERP was automating existing fragmentation rather than reshaping the enterprise.

Outcomes

  • Scope redefined from a finance system to an end-to-end enterprise transformation
  • Integrated processes and harmonised data models across finance, purchasing and operations
  • Consultant-led delivery replaced by joint business, operations and IT leadership

From fragmented applications to a product-driven technology organisation

Context

After a sequence of acquisitions, the group operated a highly fragmented application landscape shaped by years of local decisions and vendor-driven implementations. Technology was not positioned as an enterprise enabler.

Outcomes

  • Enterprise application portfolio established as the factual baseline for transformation
  • Redundancies and rationalisation opportunities identified and costed
  • Clear segmentation of enterprise versus local systems

Building a unified regional organisation after a merger of equals

Context

Following a merger of equals, two legacy organisations had to become one harmonised regional operating backbone across EMEA, with standardised processes, shared data and a single enterprise platform set.

Outcomes

  • Unified regional organisation with clear governance and accountability
  • Single harmonised enterprise backbone across ERP, CRM and HCM
  • Five country go-lives within twelve months of programme setup

Transformation rarely fails on strategy. It fails when the decisions that matter most remain unmade.

Let's start with the real question

Technology alone is rarely the problem.

Transformation challenges are rarely where they first appear. A focused conversation often brings more clarity than weeks of internal debate. Let's discuss where the initiative stands, what's blocking progress, and what needs to happen next.
