BlueScope Australia consolidates 13 legacy systems into a customer-centric ERP environment
Summary
It is also one of the world’s leading manufacturers of painted and coated steel products, providing vital components for houses, buildings, other structures, motor vehicles and more. Headquartered in Australia, BlueScope has more than 160 operations and sales offices in 18 countries across several regions, including the Asia Pacific and North America. However, in recent years, the company had realised that many of its existing enterprise resource planning (ERP) and other legacy systems were falling short in supporting its business initiatives. “Improving the experience of our customers and employees, and providing a single view across our supply chain, was either not possible or required increasing levels of complexity,” says Jagdeep Singh, Head of Strategy and Transformation for BlueScope Australia’s Steel Product IT department. Singh says this would streamline business processes and provide a modern technology foundation for its Australian Coated and Industrial Products supply chain and customer-facing systems.
