Pantaloon Retail
Challenges
• Need of a Robust transaction
management system and an enterprise
wide platform to run the operations.
• Bring all of its businesses and
processes together.
Solutions Adopted
• SAP
Three Phases of
SAP implementation
• The first phase involved blueprinting existing processes and mapping them to
the desired state.
In this phase, the entire project team worked on current processes within the
structure of the organization, analyzed and drafted them. This blueprint was
later used in the formation of new states of the solution.
• In the second phase, the SAP platform was developed with the help of
Novasoft’s template which was predefined by SAP after evaluation of
Pantaloon’s needs and expertise in retail solutions.
• The last phase in this project was for stores to switch over to the new system
and for current data to be ported.
Before the SAP implementation, all the data was unorganized. This data had
to be migrated to the new SAP application.
