Case Study: Emami Cement Limited achieves real-time inventory visibility and improved margins with SAP HANA

Meeting Customer Demands and Beating the Competition with SAP S/4HANA

Emami Cement Limited, a Kolkata‑based mill‑products firm producing over 2.5 million tons of cement across seven plants, needed to compete aggressively as a relatively new player in India’s crowded cement market. The company faced pressure to control production and freight costs, gain real‑time market and competitor insights, and push high volumes while meeting customer demand and improving margins.

Emami implemented SAP S/4HANA (finance) with cloud capabilities and plans SAP Fiori customer apps to deliver real‑time analytics and inventory visibility. The solution enabled proactive cost control (including freight), in‑depth competitor pricing analysis, and direct communication with more than 200 customers — yielding better profitability management, faster customer service, and greater operational flexibility after a five‑month rollout.
