in all kinds of project phases like feasibility studies, process re-design, customisation, testing, support. This includes all due project administration tasks like time and budget control, ressourcing, etc.

to re-organise all concrete product master data at Australia's second largest concrete manufacturer. Some 10,000's of material ID's plus bills of materials representing different concrete mixes were converted to exactly 1 material ID and 1 dynamic bill of materials assigned to all plants. Bills of materials are calculated dynamically in an ABAP program based on dozens of product characteristics; and a variant rule framework integrates the results into SAP sales documents, pricing, costing, MRP, interfaces to production facilities and test laboratories. Comprehensive BI and simulation transactions will allow constant product optimisation.
