Wakefit leverages SAP S/4HANA for an integrated business experience
New-age technologies are enabling companies to minimise administration challenges and give businesses the freedom to optimise and automate. With mounting compliances, lack of end-to-end visibility, and rising multi-branch operations, it is critical for enterprises to integrate their processes and streamline business cycles. Therefore, they need a feasible enterprise solution that promises better control and governance. The following case of a sleep solutions company looking to transform itself with a whole new software system demonstrates one such transformation.
Opportunities and challenges
Wakefit is a research-driven, innovative sleep solutions company marching towards becoming a future-focused home solutions provider. The company aims to transform itself by featuring a line of products that will take it from the bedroom to all rooms: sofas, work desks, bookshelves, wardrobes, coffee tables, side tables, TV units, and shoe racks.
The objective of Wakefit is to capitalise on the opportunity to implement standard ERP across the company covering all assets, projects, and locations. Currently, Wakefit is looking to expand with its fully functional 14 Manufacturing Plants and 25 Warehouses, all covered in the deployment. Also, being in the E-commerce business, it needed a reliable integration between the portal and CRM. They aim to add flexibility through proper coordination of front and back offices in Bangalore, Jodhpur and Haryana. The challenges included long-term reliance on manual operations, which resulted in losing crucial man-hours and compromised accuracy in profit analysis. The lack of adequate inventory planning, manual profitability analysis, and lack of managing and processing revenues are other hurdles that the company faced.
