Syngenta - Completed project

Syngenta

Syngenta is one of the world's leading agricultural companies that produces plant protection products. The company's headquarters are located in Basel.

The company operates in more than 90 countries, including Russia - its branches and representative offices are open in Moscow, Voronezh and 30 other cities in the country. Its staff numbers more than 28,000 employees worldwide.

Previously, most of the company's critical business processes were tied to software solutions from the German vendor SAP. But due to the difficult situation on the international stage, the company's management was worried that Russian branches could fall under sanctions.

In connection with this, the company decided to draw up a detailed plan for the transition to a Russian solution for business process management.

Key Challenges

  • Analyze the work of the previous contractor, prepare a report for foreign colleagues and provide a business assessment of the actual result.
  • Design the future transition of the Russian branch of Syngenta from SAP to 1C.
Implemented our solution

  1. The project was divided into four stages:

    — business and current situation survey on the project;

    — rendering of all business processes and their approval;

    — collection of functional requirements;
    — launch of “1C:ERP Holding Management” on the customer's cloud server with the necessary licenses.

    First of all, ICL Services specialists assembled a large international team and discussed in detail each stage of the project — from collecting information at the initial stages to the final steps of 1C implementation. At the same time, for greater reliability, more than 30 employees from Europe, India and China were involved on the customer's side.

    Then the experts conducted an audit of the processes implemented by the previous contractor and identified problems and ways to eliminate them.

    All business processes of the customer were also studied in detail: the experts took on the process of rendering them — from the end user to the last transaction.

    After a thorough collection of functional requirements, the ICL Services team helped the customer decide on the required configuration and purchase a license for “1C:ERP Holding Management”, a solution for holdings that integrates all business processes, ensuring transparency and operational management at all stages. In the future, the company will switch to it.

    In addition, this configuration allows working with international financial reporting, which was especially important for the customer.
