Supporting the ERP System Implementation
Context
CRC Industries recognized the need to streamline its operations and sought to internationally implement a unified ERP system. The company realized that the existing fragmentation of ERP systems and varied working methods had resulted in a significant lack of overview and a disorganized approach. To address this, the organization aimed to introduce an English-based way of working across its EMEIA countries, encompassing plants with diverse processes, cultures and languages. By doing so, they aimed to establish a standardized and structured approach that would enhance efficiency and collaboration. The implementation process required aligning the fragmented production process, which included numerous small and independent teams.
