Key Business Challenges
Prior to implementing the SAP solution, Amey faced several challenges in managing their services including:
Relied on paper-based and manual processes for maintenance and repair tasks
Limited transparency of job costs and margins, making it difficult to optimize operations
Inefficient allocation of resources leading to delays and lower productivity
No centralized service management system
SAP Solution Landscape
Prezien provided an integrated solution between SAP applications and external 3rd party systems. This allowed for better process automation, real-time visibility into job statuses and resource availability and streamlined operations:

ECC (Financials postings)
