Case Study: a Latin American retailer modernizes supply chain operations and cuts costs with Kyndryl

a Latin American retailer cuts infrastructure costs by 25%-30% with Kyndryl

A latin american retailer faced the challenge of modernizing its outdated IT infrastructure to support a major expansion of 800 new stores. The retailer needed to upgrade its IBM Power platform and Infolog supply chain software to reduce risk and enable rapid growth, requiring an expert partner to manage the technical transition. They engaged Kyndryl for this initiative.

Kyndryl migrated the retailer's systems to the Converge Enterprise Cloud with IBM Power for Google Cloud, performing the necessary upgrades to the operating system and applications. The Kyndryl team also built new financial dashboards using SAP PaPM and Tableau for improved data visualization. This solution delivered an estimated 25-30% savings in infrastructure costs over three years, enabled faster month-end financial closing, and provided the scalability needed to open new stores more quickly.
