The transformation of a sports legend with SAP ERP and Business Analytics
About the Project
Because an integrated SAP system was allowing Fenerbahçe to manage the club more tightly from one center, comply with UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations and adhere to the regulatory framework laid down by the CMB of Turkey in one stroke, the club decided to standardize all its various financial systems for reporting, logistics, HR and purchasing by moving them to a single integrated platform.
Fenerbahçe decided to implement SAP to fulfill its business needs and chose NTT DATA Business Solutions for consulting, project planning and implementation. “When selecting our business partner, we primarily took NTT DATA Business Solutions’ strong references, experienced consultants and service ethic into consideration.”
The SAP ERP and Business Analytics platform was implemented in two phases: first for Fenerbahçe Futbol A.Ş., and then for the rest of the club and its nine associations. “Our internal and external stakeholders were aware of the importance of this project and its future benefit for the club’s business transformation.”
Today, the club has one end-to-end software platform for all key business processes, including soccer. Data that used to take hours and even days to collect is now available in minutes. Financial reporting has been taken to a new level thanks to the powerful real-time business analytics and sophisticated reporting and budgeting capabilities. Fenerbahçe also has better visibility of its current and future cash flow, income & expenditures balance and comparisons according to budget. And senior managers can access all this information on customized dashboards, through their mobile devices.
The contract management module captures all data about its professional players, and automatically calculates their compensation based on game statistics and contract details. Sales of combined tickets and club membership fees were automated and integrated into the new SAP system. HR management was centralized and purchasing processes were optimized.
Today the club has the most sophisticated SAP system in the Turkish sports industry and is the Gold Winner of the 2014 SAP Quality Awards in Turkey in the Rapid Delivery category, and has earned the Bronze Medal for the Europe, Middle East and Africa region.
