The challenge

A large integrated port and maritime logistics operator needed to accelerate their digital transformation strategy by integrating various internal systems, including its purchasing platform, with SAP. The central challenges included:

• Reduce dependencies in point-to-point integrations
• Create an architecture with enough memory to process large volumes of data and transactions in real time
• Identify and reduce redundancies in their legacy system
• Mapping all the business rules

“Digibee’s support made all the difference. They answered all our questions and even helped us build the pipelines.”

The Objective

• Integrate existing legacy systems
• Improve the sales purchasing process
• Create an improved end-user experience
• Rapid deployment (in less than 4 weeks)

The plan

The intention was to integrate all data from the supplier portal into its ERP – SAP – with the Digibee platform. The flow involved registering suppliers in SAP, validating the data, determining supplier approval and, once confirmed, resending the data to a third-party purchasing platform.

The Outcome

Digibee accelerated its maritime logistics digital transformation strategy by integrating several internal systems, including its procurement platform, with SAP. Building on the success of this integration, other workflows were then developed, including currency quotation, materials, purchase orders, cost collectors, among others.

Despite the project’s aggressive timeline, the project was delivered on schedule, dramatically improving efficiency and end-user experiences in the process. Several results were achieved:

• On schedule deployment
• Completed integration of over 3,250 purchase orders
• Improved efficiency for supplier onboarding
• Delivered a more agile purchasing process
• Greatly improved end-user experience
