The Client
Agropolychim AD is a leading manufacturer of nitrogen and phosphorous fertilizers. From its headquarters in Bulgaria, it markets its products throughout the Balkan Peninsula, Southeastern Europe and beyond.
Leaving a legacy behind
For the last 10 years, Agropolychim had been managing its manufacturing processes using the SAP ERP Central Component (ECC) solution, which was now outdated and unable to meet the manufactorer’s expansion goals.
Sowing the seeds of success
Specialists from the Eviden Bulgaria SAP competency center evaluated the company’s business and advised implementing SAP S/4HANA using a greenfield strategy.
The proposal was accepted, and the two companies went to work. The scope of this implementation included:
- SAP Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC)
- Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS)
- Manufacturing Integration Intelligence (MII) and Manufacturing Execution System (MES) integration
- Material Master Portal
- Transportation Management
Eviden also developed a customer portal leveraging SAP Fiori to enable collaboration with customers and freight providers.

Reaping the harvest
The greenfield implementation of S4/HANA gave Agropolychim a clean slate: a new system with new processes. Additionally, it has enabled increased automation and real-time data access across its production units for better decision-making.
With demand, supply and financial factors integrated, the manufacturer’s business planning and customer service are both benefiting from streamlined processes.
