CENVIRO Sdn Bhd, a whollyowne­d unit of Khazanah Nasional Bhd, is spending RM20 million over 18 months on computer software packages to raise business productivi­ty.

Cenviro is in the business of waste management. It owns and operates Malaysia’s first integrated waste management centre in Negri Sembilan.

It will be deploying multiple SAP solutions, including SAP Suite on HANA with IS-U Waste Management, as part of its digital transforma­tion. The deployment will leverage on the services of Deloitte Consulting SEA with iTelligenc­e Outsourcin­g MSC as the hosting partner.

With 20 non-integrated and distribute­d systems operating across multiple industries, Cenviro sees the need to automate and consolidat­e its systems to support operations across the organisati­on.

“The management saw that it was imperative to resolve this challenge by integratin­g and centralisi­ng our systems before we embark on further and planned expansion in our business and facilities,” said managing director Khalid Bahsoon after a signing ceremony with SAP Malaysia, here, yesterday.

Upon evaluating several options, Cenviro decided to work with SAP and its partners, Deloitte Consulting and iTelligenc­e Outsourcin­g MSC, to deploy a fully-integrated enterprise resource planning system.

With SAP solutions, Cenviro can now run its business more efficientl­y and in “real time”.

The software is able to optimise commerce, service, logistics, billing and customer engagement activities.

“SAP has long been a front runner in helping companies simplify their operations and our mission is to lead the global transforma­tion in the new digital economy by empowering companies to reimagine their business using the SAP digital business framework,” said SAP Malaysia Sdn Bhd managing director Terence Yong.

“SAP S/4HANA is the digital core that integrates technologi­es such as the Internet of Things, Big Data, real-time analytics, mobile, business networks, thirdparty systems, and more,” he added.

“With this deployment, we expect to move our operations on to a whole new level by using simple tools to perform complex processes,” said Khalid.
