Case Study: Unipart Rail UK Limited achieves rapid SAP integration and major time-and-cost savings with Syniti

How BackOffice Associates helped Unipart Rail UK Limited reduce the time to generate finance reports from one week to 2-3 days

Unipart Rail UK Limited, a leading supplier of replacement components for UK traction and rolling stock, faced the challenge of integrating a major new maintenance contract into SAP — including thousands of new master materials, supplier relationships and accounts. Syniti was engaged to address this through the Quadrate data‑upload tool to accelerate large-scale SAP uploads and onboarding of the new business.

Syniti implemented Quadrate to automate master‑data uploads and exception handling, eliminating time‑consuming manual entry and reducing training and resourcing costs. As a result, Unipart Rail achieved much faster processing (handling daily uploads of hundreds of materials), improved log management and forecasting, and accelerated period‑end reporting so finance reports reach the MD’s desk two to three days after period end instead of about a week.
