Metcash Australia general manager – finance, Adrian Gratwicke, said today Metcash will commence a SAP core finance replacement project, investing in SAP finance, treasury & risk management, property management and compliance related software. Gratwicke said Metcash had been operating on Oracle’s PeopleSoft software for the last 8 years, and the company’s decision to go with SAP and Fujitsu was based on the breadth of SAP’s integrated platform and Fujitsu’s understanding of its business needs. “SAP will enable Metcash to bring together previously disparate third party products like fixed assets, real estate and claim-backs into an integrated, controlled environment, increasing visibility and financial and operational efficiencies.” As part of its RFP process, Gratwicke said Metcash selected Fujitsu as systems integrator by “demonstrating a thorough understanding of the business requirements and in-depth SAP practice capability, further enhanced by the recent acquisition of Supply Chain Consulting.” Gratwicke said Fujitsu will providE up to 20 SAP consultants located on site, focusing on ensuring that the new integrated financial systems exceeds the business expectations and value to Metcash. |
