British American Tobacco Uses ActiveControl to Simplify SAP Upgrades
About British American Tobacco
British American Tobacco (BAT) is a leading, multi-category consumer goods headquartered in London. Founded in 1902, they have grown to become the largest cigarette maker in the world with over 52,000 employees serving nearly 180 markets across the globe.
The Challenge
Due to a heavy reliance on manual change and release processes, BAT was struggling with sequencing issues and missing transports leading to costly delays and production downtime. These manual processes also made managing their multi-track development landscape even more challenging.
The Goal
As part of an enterprise-wide SAP upgrade project, BAT needed a tool that would enable them to deliver changes quickly to meet their tight cutover deadlines. They were also looking to streamline their SAP change and release processes to reduce costs and improve efficiency.
The Solution: ActiveControl
BAT chose ActiveControl for its ability to automate manual change and release processes and to help them seamlessly manage multiple development landscapes. As a result, they were able to complete their upgrade project successfully and with less manual effort required to manage change, SAP teams can now focus more time on value-add tasks.
