A SAP Case Study

Preview of the Schoolhouse Electric Case Study

Growing 25% Year Over Year with SAP Business ByDesign

Schoolhouse Electric & Supply Co., a retail company specializing in home goods and lighting fixtures, faced challenges with its supply chain due to a lack of an ERP system. This made it difficult to align supply with demand and compete in the market, as they relied on manual inventory checks and could not accurately forecast their needs. They turned to the vendor SAP and its SAP Business ByDesign solution to address these issues.

By implementing the cloud-based SAP Business ByDesign ERP system, SAP provided Schoolhouse Electric with the tools to optimize inventory and supplier management. The solution delivered significant results, including a 25% improvement in product availability to 95%, a greater than 50% reduction in lead times for custom orders, and a 90% on-time delivery rate. This enabled the company to achieve 25% year-over-year growth.
