New SAP Framework Improves Customer Satisfaction for Leading Alcoholic Beverage Distributor

challenge

Lengthy, Manual Data Entry Process

One of the leading alcoholic beverage distributors in the country was looking to improve the efficiency of their customer care team’s order taking process. Due to the complexities involved in managing liquor sales in highly-regulated environments across multiple states, the customer care reps had been forced to utilize complicated order entry processes. These processes required manual look-ups, the use of multiple screens, and the creation of multiple SAP sessions when placing orders. It took too long, and was confusing for their team. Training new customer care reps was also difficult and attrition was high.
