Warburtons SAP on BlackBerry PO Approval
Warburtons employs over 4,500 people and is actively managed by the fifth generation of the Warburtons family – Brett, Jonathan and Ross. The company produces more than two million bakery products a day which it distributes across the UK from its thirteen bakeries and eleven depots.
Aware that its BlackBerry smartphones could do more than email and diary management and with many of the management team frequently out of their offices, Warburtons started looking for additional business functionality that would improve their managers’ productivity, speed up decision making and be economically beneficial in a very short time.
Damien Ghee, Warburtons Director for IT and Programmes saw PO approval as one such process and realised that there were systemic delays when the manager responsible was away from their desk.
In conjunction with its mobile service provider O2 and iQlink, Warburtons implemented the SkyMobile SAP PO approval application in less than one month.
