Britvic Uses ActiveControl to Eliminate 50% of Manual SAP Change Efforts
About Britvic
Britvic was established in the 1930s and today owns more than 30 international soft drink brands. They operate manufacturing facilities in four countries and export to over 100 more. The company uses both ECC and BW systems configured in a 4-system, single-track environment consisting of Development, SIT, UAT, and Production.Britvic also runs a hybrid landscape with their Dev and SIT systems operating in the cloud while UAT and Production remain on-premise.
The Challenge
Britvic relied heavily on manual efforts driven by spreadsheets and emails to deliver changes to their SAP systems. This led to inefficient approval workflows, 'painful' auditing processes, and a lack of visibility across internal and external teams, all of which made managing a hybrid landscape particularly challenging.
The Goal
The company was seeking a way to eliminate many of the bottlenecks in their change delivery process, mainly the slow approval processes that were requiring significant daily attention. For auditing purposes, they wanted a tool that could act as a single source of truth for the status of all changes to make reporting easier.
The Solution: ActiveControl
Britvic chose ActiveControl to provide automation that would enable them to move to a more efficient, transparent SAP change control process, communicate more effectively with external teams and leave the use of spreadsheets behind. Manual effort has been reduced by up to 50%, freeing the Basis team to focus on value-add tasks and reducing the overall cost of change.
