SAP Customer Success Story | EMS | Season Group
To support the rapid growth of its worldwide business with accelerating big data, Season Group moved away from standalone Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and adopted SAP S/4HANA ERP system in June 2017.
The new and more advanced SAP ERP solution facilitates a real time response to ever-changing customer needs by integrating and simplifying key financial, sales & services, procurement & logistics and product development & manufacturing processes.

Company Profile
Season Group realized the traditional fragmented Material Requirements Planning (MRP) system used to manage manufacturing processes including production planning, scheduling and inventory control, cannot keep up with its business expansion and the fast pace of change in customer requirements that require swift and accurate business decisions in order to catch available business opportunities.
“The EMS industry is changing fast. The product life cycle was about 2-3 years in the past, whilst it is much shortened nowadays. New product goes to market every year. Currently, the biggest challenge faced by EMS providers is that customer orders tend to have less production lead time and lower quantity. The internal silo system operated by different departments leads to inefficient information flow and a cluttered process also results in imprecise cost and profit margin estimation, which affects the company’s future development.”Carl Hung, President & CEO, Season Group

Company Profile
The SAP ERP solution on the latest S/4HANA platform was proposed to Season Group by DynaSys Solutions, the certified SAP Platinum Partner in Greater China.
Season Group is the first EMS provider in Greater China region to implement SAP S/4HANA platform - including the production module.
Replacing the MRP, the SAP S/4HANA platform consolidates all data, from customers’ and suppliers’ profiles, through to material list, raw material prices and manufacturing cost. It also analyzes data at a much higher speed. It provides real-time information, reducing the possibility of redundancy errors, hence Season Group can easily control cost and manage the work process for higher productivity and timely, well-analyzed business decisions.

“It’s a great help to have more real-time and accurate data for assessing production capacity, ordering, scheduling and budgeting. Customers understand if we have to reject their orders due to leadtime but they cannot accept us telling them that we don’t know the prices or the schedule, for example. The SAP S/4HANA ERP solution truly helps to shorten our response time, supporting us to seize every business opportunity.”Carl Hung, President & CEO, Season Group
