Saint-Gobain modernizes its logistics operations with SAP EWM and HRC Software mobile apps

Building Materials · SAP EWM

More than 50 logistics sites to align, an S/4HANA transition to prepare for. SAP EWM provides the framework; HRC Software applications make it actionable on the ground, deployed in less than 24 hours and adopted faster than the standard RF.

EMEA-wide logistics transformation

As part of an EMEA-wide logistics transformation program, Saint-Gobain has undertaken the harmonization of its warehouse processes and is preparing its transition to SAP S/4HANA.

With more than 50 logistics sites to modernize, one challenge quickly emerged : ensuring smooth and efficient execution on the ground, beyond just the system.

While SAP EWM provides the necessary structure and robustness, the central question remained : how to make it truly effective and usable by operators on a daily basis?

The challenge

Making SAP EWM effective on the ground

Complex Navigation Limited ergonomics that slow down operators.  
High training needs It takes a significant amount of training to master traditional displays.  
Insufficient scanning Scan performance that cannot keep up with industrial-scale operations.  
Operator frustration A reliance on network quality and frustrated teams.  
"Beyond usability, the solution directly helps secure large-scale EWM deployments and is key to the project's success and the adoption of the solution as a whole."
Nicolas BelEWM Solution Architect, Team Lead, SAP Digital Warehousing Group
