Tata Ryerson (TRyL) is in the business of steel processing and distribution and produces hot and cold rolled coils, strips, plates, sheets, blanks and structural. With the Ryerson plant in Mexico demonstrating the advantages of SAP’s ERP package, the selection of mySAP ERP at TRyL was a natural choice and Tata Technologies took on the responsibility of being the implementation partner. On one side transaction volumes were resulting in increased throughout putting pressure on the current hardware infrastructure that could not scale and the issue of an upgrade came up. Says C S Murthy, chief of Information management, TRyL, “With ERP, from the IT perspective, we do not need to know anything about the underlying operating system or database; we do not need experts because SAP provides all the support that we need—the warning signs, any drops in production and any other points that we need to address.”
TRyL adds substantial value to the material supplied by Tata Steel before it is dispatched to the customer. The ERP system shares all the information about material and customers online. For instance, the credit control limits of different customers can be checked before material is dispatched. Details of materials billed and shipments are shared from Tata Steel’s SAP system to TRyL’s. The implementation also made it possible for the company to change its production cycle as per customer requirements at any given time, altering its own production to suit their needs. This has translated into improved customer service and quality control.
