Overview

Anritsu Corporation is a global leader in information and communications, delivering advanced measuring instruments, network solutions and inspection systems used across telecom, IP networking and food and pharmaceutical quality control. To support global expansion and unify data across regions, Anritsu partnered with Be One Solutions to deploy a SAP Business One implementation across five sites worldwide to support their Inspection and Detection focus area for their food and pharmaceutical industry.

Challenges & Opportunities

As Anritsu expanded its global operations, maintaining data consistency between its headquarters in Japan and its U.S. entity became an increasing challenge. After an initial SAP Business One implementation with local partners in 2014, discrepancies in accounting data exposed the limitations of localized systems. To address these challenges, Anritsu recognized the need for a trusted SAP global partner with the expertise to deliver a high-level IT integration system that is not dependent on local systems, ensuring seamless data accuracy and transparency across its global network.

Why Us

Anritsu chose Be One Solutions for its ability to act as a single point of contact for all SAP Business One implementation needs. With offices in key global locations and multilingual support, Be One Solutions ensured smooth coordination and efficient delivery. Only minor adjustments were required to tailor SAP Business One to Anritsu’s operations, while a unified IT integration framework helped standardize templates and strengthen consistency across all entities.

Our Solution

We implemented SAP Business One to establish a unified IT integration system that strengthened collaboration between Anritsu’s Japan headquarters and its global entities. Using a standardized implementation methodology, the solution, paired with various SAP Business One add-ons, aligned accounting, reporting and inventory processes across locations while maintaining operational flexibility.

Benefits
