Pastas Gallo cria receita para escalabilidade após migrar para a nuvem
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 To evolve their enterprise, the sports giant decided to replace their outdated planning software with SAP Analytics Cloud for planning.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 sua criação, a Pastas Gallo tem se destacado pela visão e inovação. Seu fundador, Jose Espona, revolucionou o cultivo de trigo na Espanha e inventou uma nova maneira de produzir massas, encantando seus compatriotas e, logo depois, o mundo. Mais de 75 anos depois, a Pastas Gallo cresceu para atender a mais de 40 países, impulsionada pela paixão e pela qualidade.
O Desafio
Em seu cenário anterior, a Pastas Gallo tinha um sistema local e observou a oportunidade de aumentar a agilidade mudando para a nuvem. Para fazer isso, eles precisavam de uma solução inovadora que tivesse uma infraestrutura flexível e modernizasse seus processos de negócios. Com isso em mente, eles escolheram a Avvale como parceira para essa transformação.
A Abordagem
A Avvale elaborou um plano estratégico para que a Pastas Gallo migrasse suas cargas de trabalho SAP para o Google Cloud a partir de uma infraestrutura local. Com as cargas de trabalho alojadas na nuvem, eles tiveram a capacidade de dimensionar suas necessidades conforme necessário e proporcionaram agilidade em qualquer situação.
Mais importante ainda é que, ao migrar para a nuvem, a Pastas Gallo reduziu muito sua pegada de carbono, pois sua infraestrutura está hospedada em uma plataforma digital.
Além disso, essa implementação também incluiu a atualização do hardware, da plataforma, do banco de dados, do kernel do SAP e modificações no código personalizado em uma única etapa.
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
O Impacto
A migração para o Google Cloud levou menos de três meses, e a Pastas Gallo percebeu os benefícios dessa mudança em um curto espaço de tempo. Eles rapidamente experimentaram a otimização de processos, o que levou à melhoria da produtividade e à redução do tempo gasto em tarefas. Sua infraestrutura agora pode ser dimensionada com base nas necessidades atuais e eles podem se adaptar a quaisquer mudanças que ocorram. Essa solução lhes dá agilidade para inovações futuras.
