Pastas Gallo Crea una Receta para la Escalabilidad Después de Migrar 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 To evolve their enterprise, the sports giant decided to replace their outdated planning software with SAP Analytics Cloud for planning.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 su inicio, Pastas Gallo ha sido líder en visión e innovación. Su fundador, Jose Espona, revolucionó el cultivo de trigo en España e inventó una nueva forma de elaborar pasta, deleitando a sus compatriotas y, poco después, al mundo entero. Más de 75 años después, Pastas Gallo ha crecido para servir a más de 40 países, impulsada por la pasión y la calidad.

El Desafío

En su infraestructura anterior, Pastas Gallo contaba con un sistema local (on-premise) y vieron la oportunidad de aumentar su agilidad al trasladarse a la nube. Para lograr esto, necesitaban una solución innovadora que tuviera una infraestructura flexible y modernizara sus procesos comerciales. Con esto en mente, seleccionaron a Avvale como su socio para esta transformación.

El Enfoque

Avvale elaboró un plan estratégico para Pastas Gallo con el fin de migrar sus cargas de trabajo de SAP a Google Cloud desde una infraestructura local (on-premise). Al alojar las cargas de trabajo en la nube, les proporcionó la capacidad de escalar según fuera necesario y les brindó agilidad en cualquier situación.

Aún más importante, al migrar a la nube, Pastas Gallo redujo considerablemente su huella de carbono, ya que su infraestructura se encuentra alojada en una plataforma digital. Además, esta implementación también incluyó la actualización de hardware, plataforma, base de datos, kernel de SAP y modificaciones de código personalizado en un solo paso.

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

La migración a Google Cloud tomó menos de tres meses y Pastas Gallo comenzó a ver los beneficios de este cambio en un período de tiempo más corto. Rápidamente experimentaron una optimización de procesos que condujo a una mejora de la productividad y una reducción del tiempo dedicado a tareas. Ahora su infraestructura tiene la capacidad de escalar según las necesidades actuales y pueden adaptarse a cualquier cambio que se presente. Esta solución les brinda agilidad para futuras innovaciones.
