The harmonization of the IT environment through rolling out SAP core functions in the areas of product range planning, procurement, scheduling, manufacturing and sales, logistics and finances, retail locations, and personnel allows amor to manage company processes in an integrated, transparent way. Factors such as the wide variety of the product range as well as the centralized yet custom sales floor management posed particular challenges.
