Sidmar Unearths Business Value and Reduces Operational Costs

Infosys-powered SAP upgrade enables Sidmar to derive continuous business value while significantly reducing operational costs

The Client
Sidmar is a part of Arcelor, the world's second largest steel producer. It caters to the automotive industry and other sectors that require high levels of quality, including white goods, furniture and construction.

Business Need
Sidmar wanted to upgrade to a recent SAP version for improved additional functionality and shorter upgrade cycles in the future. The SAP upgrade would also provide an opportunity to replace custom modifications with standard SAP objects. It would enable the organization to derive continuous business value while reducing operational costs.

Key Challenges

Therefore, it was important to manage additional complexity while ensuring minimal impact to business. On-time delivery was extremely critical to the client's competitiveness.
