Agenda Day 1

10:05 AM THINK TANK A CASE STUDY: Novartis’ Journey to a Global Standardised ERP System

A year and a half after going live with its global standardised ERP system, Novartis has transformed a once highly fragmented technology landscape into a unified, efficient platform. Previously operating with around 40 separate SAP instances, the organisation faced significant complexity, inconsistent data structures, and challenges in achieving global visibility.

This session explores how Novartis successfully harmonised its systems, streamlined financial processes, and established a single source of truth across all entities. With standardised global finance master data and aligned processes, the company has significantly improved reporting capabilities and operational efficiency.

Join this session to gain practical insights into:

  • The strategic approach taken to move from a fragmented to a harmonised ERP landscape
  • Key benefits realised, including improved data integrity and streamlined global reporting
  • The challenges encountered during implementation and how they were addressed
  • Effective change management strategies to drive adoption across global finance teams
