customer requirements in various industries.

The company operates in 18 countries and has 25 production locations
worldwide.

Cultivating Valuable Customer Relationships with SAP Sales Cloud

Synthomer’s CRM system was no longer able to cope with the rising requirements. That’s why the company came across NTT DATA Business Solutions as IT service provider with substantial expertise in the CRM and cloud sectors as well as a global presence.

New Directions in Sales

As Synthomer has no group-wide, uniform ERP and CRM system, there were numerous manual interfaces. NTT DATA Business Solutions and Synthomer decided for a global CRM system, connected to the existing SAP ERP system. Another project objective was to increase the efficiency and transparency of sales processes. At the same time, it had to be possible to implement a new reporting solution.

Ensuring the Right Blend for Success

With the introduction of SAP Sales Cloud and SAP Cloud Platform integration, Synthomer now benefits from end-to-end business processes with mobile data access and consolidated data use in the system. Sales now has the ideal tool for day-to-day business, as customer data is available online and offline.

The Right Chemistry

NTT DATA Business Solutions’ impressive overall concept for digitalization of global sales processes was brought to a successful conclusion with the go-live. Synthomer has also successfully rolled out the solution at its global locations – the chemistry is right here!
