The Challenge

Our client, a multinational health and wellness organization headquartered in the United Kingdom, faced a critical timeline constraint requiring implementation of a Financials ERP system within an eight-week window. This aggressive schedule was driven by substantial costs associated with maintaining a Transitional Service Agreement (TSA) with their incumbent vendor. The organization operates significant facilities across six countries worldwide, necessitating a solution that could be tailored to meet the unique operational requirements and regulatory environments of each geographic location. The client evaluated multiple ERP platforms and ultimately selected Infor CloudSuite based on its superior user experience design and the operational efficiencies achievable through consolidating financial operations onto a unified ERP platform.

Our Solution

The client selected CiTechT based on relevant Infor implementation experience and a focused rollout methodology. We assembled a dedicated team of Infor-certified specialists with CloudSuite Financials experience, enabling us to execute the project using an Agile delivery framework. Our implementation approach centered on developing a Single Core Model that standardized core financial processes across all locations, while also creating location-specific customizations to accommodate unique business rules, regulatory requirements, and operational workflows at each international facility. This balanced approach supported consistency in financial reporting and processes while maintaining the flexibility needed for local operations.
