Coop launches digitization initiative
One of the largest SAP transformation programs in Scandinavia is currently taking place at Coop in Denmark. With a completely new retail platform based on SAP S/4 Hana, Coop Denmark is changing its business processes and modernizing its IT systems.
The consulting firm KPS is the partner responsible for the transformation of processes and IT implementation. With its new IT solution, Coop wants to fully exploit the benefits of digitalization: it should help to better meet customer requirements and improve procurement, logistics and marketing processes in particular.
The new solution will go live in 2019 and be fully implemented by 2020. The new SAP platform will ensure efficient, real-time data exchange between more than 1,100 stores, the distribution centers and the Coop headquarters in Albertslund, Denmark. This will optimize the supply chain and collaboration between branches, suppliers and logistics partners.
