Project description
An experienced SAP logistics expert is needed on short notice for an internationally active supplier to the manufacturing industry with production sites in Germany and Hungary. Following an SAP S/4HANA go-live, there are currently challenges in the cross-plant (intercompany) logistics processes, which are leading to increased process complexity and delays in the flow of materials between the sites.
Responsibilities

- Review and optimization of SAP intercompany processes, particularly plant-to-plant transfers
- Identification and prioritization of root causes for delivery bottlenecks, backlogs, and a lack of process transparency
- Clear distinction between system errors, process issues, organizational shortcomings, and manual workarounds
- Evaluation of Excel-based interim solutions and transition back to robust standard SAP processes
- Establishing transparency regarding orders, confirmations, material availability, inventory, production, and shipping status
- Defining and implementing a prioritized recovery action plan with assigned responsibilities and deadlines
- Close coordination of collaboration between SAP/IT, Supply Chain, Production, Logistics, and Management
- On-site monitoring of the measures and ensuring measurable improvements
- Regular management reporting on root causes, progress, risks, and decision-making requirements
