Carrefour migrated to SAP S/4HANA in just 3 months, ensuring an updated system for Black Friday, with improved reliability and capacity to handle higher workloads.

A Mignow, a pioneering company in SAP system upgrades, is revolutionizing how businesses approach the digitalization of their internal processes. While process automation, such as RPA (Robotic Process Automation), is becoming increasingly common, Mignow goes further, focusing on software system upgrades, particularly within the SAP context.

The digitalization of internal processes offers a range of benefits, including greater operational efficiency, error reduction, increased productivity, enhanced security, and improved quality of service provided to customers. These gains have a direct impact on organizations' revenue.

Currently, RPA is widely used to automate repetitive digital tasks, saving time and resources. However, digitalization can go beyond this and extend to software system upgrades, such as SAP. By keeping these systems updated, companies can enjoy better performance, enhanced efficiency, and a more agile user experience.

Guilherme Joventino, COO and co-founder of Mignow, emphasizes the importance of keeping an organization's software updated. He states that by constantly updating the system, Mignow offers new functionalities that drive the digitalization of internal processes, including minor updates like automatically calculated fees and taxes, saving time and optimizing employee work.

According to SAP research, process automation can significantly reduce the number of clicks (53%), screen changes (96%), and fields to be filled (66%). This automation is directly related to RPA, which frees employees from repetitive tasks.

Furthermore, RPA facilitates the creation of customized internal processes, allowing companies to automate specific actions according to their needs. SAP offers over 300 ready-to-use templates, further simplifying the automation process.

Joventino emphasizes the time savings when using Mignow's software as a subscription service. Several clients have experienced faster migration, allowing them to benefit from updated systems in a shorter timeframe. Examples illustrating this include the migration of construction company RFM, which took only 18 days, and Carrefour's, which migrated in just 3 months.

Carrefour's case was sensitive because the company aimed to have the system fully updated before Black Friday. Paulo Henrique Farroco, then CIO of Carrefour Brazil, highlighted the agility of the migration, while Jackson Borges, Vice President of SAP Brazil, emphasized reliability, support for higher volumes, and modernization of the back-office environment.

Paulo emphasized the speed of the migration: “With SAP S/4HANA, we perform accounting and receive sales data, generating invoices for Marketplace partners. This provides recommendations based on the company's history,” Paulo commented. Jackson Borges highlighted the notable benefits of the migration: “The migration to SAP S/4HANA brought notable benefits to Carrefour, including greater reliability, support for higher workloads, and modernization of the back-office environment. Furthermore, the system prepares Carrefour for future growth through the Rise with SAP offering.”

Other advantages include a reduction in operational costs (30%), lower energy consumption due to cloud hosting (45%), and increased end-user productivity (up to 64%) with the new Fiori interfaces.

Mignow uses cutting-edge technology, including Artificial Intelligence, to streamline its processes. The company aims to be a benchmark in ERP system upgrades, encompassing all software in this category.
