OVERVIEW
Manufacturers face constant pressure on cost, lead time and quality, while customers expect accurate delivery dates. Doing this well needs planning, production, procurement, quality and finance to work from the same data.
SAP S/4HANA brings these together. MRP Live runs planning on the HANA database in minutes rather than overnight, advanced available-to-promise gives reliable delivery dates, and production orders, quality inspections and maintenance all post to the Universal Journal, so product costs and margins are visible in real time.
S/4HANA supports discrete, process and repetitive manufacturing, make-to-stock and make-to-order, and can be extended with SAP Digital Manufacturing for shop-floor execution.
Webtel delivers S/4HANA using SAP Activate, starting from SAP best practices and industry content. Fit-to-standard workshops show your teams how processes work in the standard system, so changes are limited to what genuinely sets your business apart. That keeps the core clean, makes upgrades easier and shortens the project.

COMMON CHALLENGES
These are the issues we see most often. Each one is planned for from the start, so it does not surface in the week before go-live.
01
Overnight MRP means plans are out of date.
02
Customers are promised dates that cannot be met.
03
Product costs are known only after month end.
04
Quality data sits outside the ERP.
