Lavazza Obtiene Eficiencia Operativa y Reduce su Huella de Carbono con la Migración a la Nube

While they expertly deliver innovation and quality to their customers, Callaway Golf’s previous planning and reporting tool wasn’t making the cut. To evolve their enterprise, the sports giant decided to replace their outdated planning software with SAP Analytics Cloud for planning.

Together with Avvale, Callaway Golf successfully implemented SAP Analytics Cloud across their global enterprise in just 6 months. Now, Callaway Golf has a single, consolidated planning solution that has enabled streamlined expense and asset plans so they can focus on what they do best– revolutionizing the sporting world with cutting edge equipment.

Desde 1895, el Grupo Lavazza ha deleitado a los amantes del café en todo el mundo con sus característicos tostados. Operando en más de 140 países, su misión es "despertar un mejor mañana cada día", expresando respeto por las personas y el medio ambiente en cada paso del camino.

El Desafío

El Grupo Lavazza ha abrazado el viaje hacia la nube como parte de su Programa de Transformación Tecnológica. Su objetivo principal era migrar todos sus centros de datos y cargas de trabajo empresariales en las instalaciones a un entorno de nube único.

La migración presentaba un alto grado de complejidad debido a la composición mixta de la infraestructura en las instalaciones. De hecho, la empresa tenía diferentes soluciones implementadas en diversas ubicaciones, desde centros de datos externos totalmente externalizados hasta plantas de producción y granjas de servidores gestionadas internamente.

El Enfoque

Aprovechando su metodología y mejores prácticas, Avvale dedicó tres meses a la fase de evaluación y planificación, preparando la infraestructura en la nube de Azure para alojar las cargas de trabajo. El proceso se llevó a cabo en cinco oleadas diferentes, durante un período de siete meses. La migración se basó principalmente en tecnologías como IAAS, Azure Migrate y Data Migration Assistant para abordar las necesidades de los modelos Lift and Shift y Replatform, que fueron los dos principales modelos adoptados.

The Challenge

Before integrating SAP Analytics Cloud, Callaway Golf's planning landscape centered around SAP's legacy planning solution, Business Planning and Simulation (BPS). While BPS met Callaway Golf's planning needs for many years, the enterprise began to experience limitations with their old solution:

  • Disconnected plans across the board: As Callaway Golf expanded and acquired new brands, planning processes greatly differed across the enterprise with some business units using Excel spreadsheets and others using legacy solutions for planning.
  • Outdated planning functionalities: The existing legacy planning solution lacked many modern functionalities. Among them, salary calculations and asset depreciation automation needed improvement. As a result, it became difficult to create detailed and accurate forecasts across the globe.
  • Significant IT support: The legacy solution required continuous management from IT to maintain runtime. IT had to carve out a full day every week to manually maintain the solution.
  • No single source of truth: Various departments and brands used different data sources, which led to data silos across the organization, making it difficult to gain a clear picture of the enterprise's planned expenses.
  • Rigid user interface: Legacy forecasting system was difficult to navigate and lacked working functions and calculations across the board, such as planning on depreciation and existing assets, adding vendors or members on the fly, and breaking down their cost center expense planning forecasts.

The Approach

With Avvale experts on their side, Callaway Golf laid out the following goals for their new planning landscape with SAP Analytics Cloud:

  • Crowdsource and consolidate plans across the enterprise to gain a global overview of their planned expenses and expand the input capabilities to each responsible owner.
  • Leverage elevated planning functionalities to create faster and more accurate forecast cost center expense and asset reports. The ability to customize calculations enhances and automates the reporting metrics.
  • Harness the power of self-service analytics to alleviate IT from the burden of simple maintenance and data entry requests, so they can focus on high-ROI tasks.
  • Maximize user-driven admin capabilities to control the management of calculations and forms.
  • Create new KPls driven by the business needs.

When SEM-BPS was the center of Callaway Golf's planning landscape, flexibility was a huge factor that was missing. SAP Analytics Cloud contains powerful scenario planning capabilities that help organizations quickly uncover actionable insights to make data-driven decisions. For Callaway Golf, SAP Analytics Cloud's modern planning functionalities provided users with the ability to:

  • Add members on the fly
  • Plan on existing as well as planned assets and automatically calculate the depreciation of values
  • Test "what-if" scenarios for deeper analysis by creating private versions of plans
  • Customize the solution based on their current business process
  • Perform driver-based calculations
  • Empower users to execute end-to-end planning scenarios, without the help of IT

El Impacto

Con el completo apoyo de Avvale, Lavazza ha adoptado Microsoft Azure para aprovechar los beneficios de la computación en la nube pública. Este cambio ha permitido a Lavazza consolidar su infraestructura en una sola plataforma, brindando escalabilidad y facilidad de gestión. Además, Lavazza ha logrado mejorar su confiabilidad y seguridad mediante la recuperación ante desastres geográficamente distribuida. La adopción de la automatización de la infraestructura como código (Infrastructure-as-Code) ha aumentado la agilidad y velocidad de Lavazza, al tiempo que ha resultado en una reducción significativa en el consumo de energía y la huella de carbono.
