Case Study: San Miguel boosts grove worker engagement and cuts planning time with SAP Cloud Platform

How Can Mobile Technology Help Workers in Global Citrus Fruit Groves Save Time and Feel More Engaged

San Miguel, a major Argentinian citrus producer, faced challenges with manual, paper-based task logging for its thousands of grove workers. This process created administrative burdens and prevented management from reacting quickly to changes. To improve agility and eliminate paperwork, they partnered with SAP and implemented a mobile app built using SAP Cloud Platform SDK for iOS.

The solution from SAP provided a mobile app that integrated in real-time with their back-end SAP Business Suite. This allowed workers to input data directly from the groves, giving management immediate visibility into operations. The results were significant time savings, including reducing planning preparation from 4 hours to 30 minutes. This also led to greater employee engagement and more informed, data-driven decision-making for the company.
