About Kerry Group
Kerry Group is a global leader in the development of taste and nutrition solutions for the food and beverage industry with nearly 150 manufacturing facilities across 31 countries and over 18,000 products. SAP is the backbone of many of their core business operations including manufacturing, supply chain, CRM, and more. They are seeking to adopt agile and DevOps workflows into SAP as they prepare to movie to S/4HANA in the coming years.
The Challenge
After more than a decade of growth and nearly 10 acquisitions, the company's SAP landscape had grown too complex to be able to deliver change as quickly as required. As systems were added and customer demands grew, they needed a way to deliver SAP changes faster without sacrificing quality.
The Goal
Kerry Group knew in order to continue delivering value to customers, they needed to streamline and speed up their SAP change management processes, while eliminating the risk of production downtime caused by human errors. They knew automation was a key component to achieving that goal.
