Greggs plan to transform finance and procurement

Monday 14th December, 2015

Keytree, a leading international technology consultancy specialising in user innovation for companies running SAP, is helping Greggs to deliver the first phase of the company’s major business transformation programme.

The consultancy will be the SAP Systems Integrator for the first of two phases of the retailer’s business transformation programme. Built on SAP HANA, the projects are part of a multi-year change management programme for the famous ‘food-on-the-go’ retailer.

The transformation programme is set to bring a wide variety of benefits across several areas of Greggs’ business and operations. A new training platform will be available to all employees over the next 18 months and Keytree is also implementing Source to Contract requirements using Ariba (an SAP company) solutions, which will see the business manage 4,500 suppliers across its operations – once the project goes live in 2016.

During the next phase of the business transformation project for Greggs, Keytree will be using SAP HANA to configure their core finance, procurement and portfolio and project management solutions.

Greggs has been selling its goods since it opened its first bakery in 1951 and today has almost 1,700 outlets across the UK.
