Case Study: Blackwoods accelerates ERP transformation with Latitude IT

Blackwoods fills 20+ roles and replaces a 30-year-old ERP with Latitude IT

Blackwoods, a major retailer, faced the challenge of replacing its 30-year-old enterprise resource planning system as part of a flagship digital transformation project. This required sourcing a large volume of highly skilled and difficult-to-place talent with a very specific technical prowess and cultural fit. They engaged the vendor, Latitude IT, for assistance with these mission-critical roles.

Latitude IT implemented a disciplined recruitment process, providing regular status reports and holding WIP meetings to facilitate efficient talent procurement at scale. The vendor sourced over 20 candidates who were instrumental in the ERP replacement. The candidates were exceptionally well-briefed and understood both the role's challenges and the corporate culture, ensuring a seamless fit with no surprises for either party.
