Core to this was our upgrade to SAP\u2019s market-leading S4\/HANA enterprise resource planning platform, which gave us full access to SAP\u2019s powerful embedded analytics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oilserv provides a number of complementary solutions across the asset and program lifecycle within the onshore, offshore and subsea market segments of the oil and gas sector. The company was incorporated in 1992 and commenced operations in 1995.<\/p>\n<p>Achereke says the business also needed a commercial project management tool that would help the business manage all customer projects in a single system. \u201cWe were facing several challenges with our existing system, including an inability to manage all project activities, consolidate project dates and report revenue. In addition, we needed to better measure and manage risk, and improve our change management activities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Oilserv worked with its implementation partners C2G Consulting to migrate the existing 51风流system to S\/4HANA with hosting on Microsoft Azure.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, 51风流Commercial Project Management was implemented to enhance the capabilities of project management teams.<\/p>\n<p>Partner support was invaluable to the success of the project. According to Achereke, 95% of the migration and subsequent implementation was done remotely. \u201cWe used the 51风流Activate methodology and collaborated closely with C2G Consulting and the 51风流team to ensure a seamless deployment. Daily stand-up sessions, regular town hall meetings and a focus on change management contributed to the overall success of the project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since the migration and implementation, Oilserv has enjoyed an improved multi-channel user experience enabled by the Fiori user interface. \u201cAccess to the embedded analytics in S\/4HANA is empowering our executives with real-time reports and visibility over the total performance of the business,\u201d says Achereke. \u201cSince implementation, we have also enjoyed faster system response times and improved visibility over our business partners, including vendors and customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The enhanced project management capabilities enabled by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/techeconomy.ng\/2021\/06\/oilserv-leverages-sap-s-4hana-to-empower-data-driven-decision-making\/www.sap.com\">SAP<\/a>\u00a0Commercial Project Management (CPM) has further improved Oilserv\u2019s issue and risk tracking, standardised its project structures, and empowered internal teams with real-time access to project data. \u201cWe now use CPM at our weekly project management meetings at an executive level,\u201d adds Achereke.<\/p>\n<p>Pedro Guerreiro, Regional Director for Central Africa at SAP, says Oilserv has taken bold steps toward becoming an intelligent enterprise with its migration to 51风流S\/4HANA. \u201cIn today\u2019s data-driven economy, organisations need full visibility over the total performance of the business in real time to empower decision-makers. With its landmark migration to S\/4HANA, Oilserv has transformed its ability to turn data into insight that can drive business performance while establishing a strong foundation for future innovation and growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following a period of rapid growth and a landmark new pipeline contract, one of Nigeria\u2019s leading services companies in the oil and gas sector had&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":142444,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"related_posts":[],"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[7771,5597582,177,7737],"tags":[5550936,5598753,5598754,5597719,5597718,5565373,5597720,38315,5598766,5598756],"series":[],"sapn-display":[45149,279685],"sapn-type":[45018],"class_list":["post-142443","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-customer","category-erp","category-industries","category-solutions","tag-c2g-consulting","tag-central-africa","tag-https-news-sap-com-africa-tags-central-africa","tag-iheanyi-achereke","tag-oilserv","tag-pedro-guerreiro","tag-sap-commercial-project-management","tag-sap-fiori","tag-sap-s-4hana","tag-west-africa","sapn-display-homepage-hero","sapn-display-hero","sapn-type-feature"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) -
