Since the SAP deployment in 2011, the companies within the Randoncorp group had been struggling with the huge volume of material master data — around 150 new records per day.
The main difficulties were a long lead time and poor material master data quality.
After evaluating market solutions for master data governance in a rigorous competitive process, Randoncorp chose the akquinet Brasil solution — the SAP add-on MDM+ BRO. The solution is a business rule engine that, together with SAP Workflow, governs the lifecycle of any SAP master data. Right after deployment, Randoncorp started collecting positive results, eliminating more than 85% of the effort required to create and maintain records — with fully automated areas.
- Solution deployed in 9 companies and 21 plants
- Material, Product and Purchasing Info Record master data
- More than 150 material registration requests per day

“BRO was chosen for being an easily adaptable, SAP-integrated solution. The tool boosted material registration by reducing time and effort for creation and extension, improved data quality and reduced rework. It also reduced the need for developments to solve registration issues.”
