To support continued growth and prepare for SAP S\/4HANA, the organization implemented SimpleMDG to centralize master data governance, accelerate product onboarding, and improve operational efficiency across the enterprise.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"f-col sm_global\">\n<h3 class=\"h3-title typo--light\">The Company\u2019s Global Reach<\/h3>\n<div class=\"sm_global_row\">\n<div class=\"sm_global_items\">\n<h3>Present in<\/h3>\n<p>            <span>05<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Countries<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"sm_global_items\">\n<h3>Operating across<\/h3>\n<p>            <span>1,611<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Stores<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"sm_global_items\">\n<h3>Serving<\/h3>\n<p>            <span>1.6M<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Customers Daily<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"sm_global_items\">\n<h3>Governing<\/h3>\n<p>            <span>260,000<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Unique Product SKUs<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"sm_global_items\">\n<h3>Managing<\/h3>\n<p>            <span>152<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Company Codes<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"sm_global_items\">\n<h3>Maintaining<\/h3>\n<p>            <span>3,467<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Site Masters<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"f-col sm_opportunity\">\n<div class=\"f-col s-gap24\">\n<h3 class=\"h3-title typo--light\">Opportunity<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sm_opportunity_wrap\">\n<p class=\"body-text\">As part of its growth strategy, the company sought to improve operational agility by responding faster to changing customer demand and market dynamics. A critical enabler of this strategy was the ability to create, govern, and maintain product master data quickly, accurately, and at scale.<\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text\">However, legacy manual processes and fragmented systems created significant operational bottlenecks in managing more than 260,000 product SKUs. Product data was managed across Excel spreadsheets, email, JIRA, Microsoft Teams, and other disconnected tools, resulting in delays, inconsistent data, and rising operational costs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-lg-4 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n<div class=\"sm_opportunity_items\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/simplemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/cude-box.svg\"><\/p>\n<h4>Slow SKU creation process<\/h4>\n<p>Product onboarding averaged seven days per SKU, delaying time-to-market.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-lg-4 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n<div class=\"sm_opportunity_items\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/simplemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/cude-box.svg\"><\/p>\n<h4>High error rates<\/h4>\n<p>Approximately 75 SKUs per day were affected by data quality issues, resulting in operational inefficiencies and financial risk.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-lg-4 col-sm-6 col-xs-12\">\n<div class=\"sm_opportunity_items\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/simplemdg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/cude-box.svg\"><\/p>\n<h4>Fragmented manual data entry via Excel<\/h4>\n<p>Coupled with multiple communication tools (email, JIRA, Teams), caused delays, data inconsistencies, and escalating operational costs.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"body-text\">To support continued growth and its SAP S\/4HANA transformation, the company required a centralized, scalable master data governance platform capable of accelerating product onboarding, improving data quality, and reducing operational risk.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"f-col sm-solutions\">\n<div class=\"f-col\">\n<h3 class=\"h3-title typo--light\">Solution Implementation<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"f-col s-gap16\">\n<p class=\"body-text\">The company selected SimpleMDG, a robust, easy-to-use, cloud-native Master Data Governance solution built exclusively on the SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP).
