Consumer Packaged Goods

The Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) industry may be facing its greatest challenges yet. Impacts such as Globalization, escalating costs, changing customer preferences, and regulatory requirements/tightening legislation has many companies recognizing the need to develop new ways to become more consumer-driven, stay ahead of the competition while further establishing a foundation for profitability.

These factors are driving the need for better decision-making and organizational responsiveness, which requires greater operational visibility and more effective internal and external collaboration.

Asset Management

Enterprise asset management (EAM) is the life cycle management of the physical assets of an organization to maximize value. By managing assets, organizations can improve utilization and performance, reduce capital costs, reduce asset-related operating costs, extend asset life and subsequently improve ROA (Return on Assets).

The SAP EAM information searching system supports this need by easy to use graphical navigation. The WEB-based interface to supplier catalogs combined with E-procurement of OEM parts further contributes to streamlined processes, asset availability and performance.
