Overview

MAN Energy Solutions, now Everllence, is headquartered in Augsburg, Germany. It leads in marine propulsion systems, turbomachinery, reactors and complete power plant solutions, powering over half of global seaborne trade. To unify subsidiaries, they partnered with Be One Solutions to deploy a scalable SAP Business One implementation.

Challenges & Opportunities

With 80 subsidiaries, disparate local systems and paper-based processes limited transparency and slowed quotes and orders. MAN ES needed a global template and a fast, reliable interface from product center systems to local subsidiaries to enable a truly multinational ERP implementation.

Why Be One Solutions

SAP Business One offers standardized functionality, continuous innovation and rapid deployment across subsidiaries. Be One Solutions brought global rollout expertise, localization at scale and centralized governance, ideal for a global SAP partner delivering a consistent, agile SAP rollout with ongoing SAP consulting services.

Our Solution

Be One Solutions enhanced MAN’s global subsidiary landscape by implementing Be One Integration Platform-powered integrations across multiple SAP Business One entities and five SAP ECC headquarters (Augsburg, Copenhagen, UK, France and Switzerland). Instead of replacing existing systems, we unified them through an intercompany order-processing interface that standardised sales, purchasing and delivery flows between HQ and subsidiaries.

With a consistent integration layer, Be One Integration Platform orchestration and country-specific localisation add-ons, subsidiaries gained a streamlined, compliant and highly coordinated operation, reducing manual touchpoints, improving data accuracy and ensuring every region stayed aligned with the headquarters’ processes.

Benefits

Deployed to over 30 subsidiaries on six continents and more rollouts planned, MAN ES reduced manual work and accelerated quotation and order processes, improving visibility across the organization. As Hanno Koch notes, SAP Business One means “saving time in day-to-day processes and improved transparency,” with costs and support centralized for efficiency.

As Harald Chapek, Head of SEAIP, mentioned, “From a business perspective, the best consultant is the one you see in the beginning and at the end.”
