SAREB Ahorra un 60% de Costos tras 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 To evolve their enterprise, the sports giant decided to replace their outdated planning software with SAP Analytics Cloud for planning.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.

La Sociedad de Gestión de Activos Procedentes de la Reestructuración Bancaria (SAREB) es una sociedad creada para la gestión y desinversión de activos de alto riesgo procedentes de entidades financieras nacionales españolas. Su misión es desinvertir los activos en un plazo de 15 años para contribuir a la mejora de la economía española, de forma que tenga un impacto positivo en la sociedad y ayude así a la consolidación del sector financiero.

El Desafío

Desde su creación en 2012, los líderes de SAREB reconocieron que era necesario migrar los sistemas a una nube pública para gestionar y supervisar de forma más eficaz los procesos empresariales, lo que permitiría conocer las áreas que debían optimizarse. SAREB eligió a Avvale para llevar a cabo esta migración porque se hizo hincapié en que los proyectos en curso no se verían afectados y en que los costos se reducirían gracias a un proceso eficiente y a las metodologías aplicadas.

El Enfoque

Ante la necesidad de una infraestructura flexible y rentable, Avvale recomendó una solución multi-cloud alojada en Azure. Esta opción permite disponer de entornos productivos en la nube centrados en la ubicación geográfica, al tiempo que se tiene la oportunidad de escalar el uso según sea necesario para reducir los costos operativos. La migración incluía cargas de trabajo SAP y no SAP, con 20 aplicaciones diferentes que son esenciales para SAREB. 

La estrategia de Avvale se adaptó a los requisitos de SAREB para que las operaciones diarias y los proyectos en curso se vieran mínimamente afectados. Como resultado, la migración solo se produjo los fines de semana. Para conseguirlo, se creó un prototipo del sistema que se iba a migrar para probar una funcionalidad limitada y los sistemas se migraron por fases. Desde el diseño hasta el lanzamiento oficial solo se tardaron cuatro semanas.

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

Aunque a SAREB le preocupaba minimizar las interrupciones, la experiencia tecnológica de Avvale alivió todas sus inquietudes. Aún mejor, esta migración le proporcionó un ahorro de costos superior al 60%, lo que superó su objetivo inicial. Gracias a esta transformación digital, dispone de un entorno que puede soportar cualquier nuevo proceso empresarial, al tiempo que se mantiene flexible para cualquier cambio futuro que pueda producirse.
