The Challenge

PepsiCo Europe asked Leading Resolutions to design and implement a strategy for the architecture, design and implementation of an internally hosted ERP system. An improved IT and communications infrastructure would support further growth in manufacturing and changes to the distribution process.

The Solution

Leading Resolutions’ strategy for the ERP system incorporated a secure web-enabled business layer front-end, which was accessible over an integrated corporate-wide telecommunications infrastructure.

This was achieved through the design and implementation of a centralised European data centre, outsourced telecommunications infrastructure and newly implemented service delivery and management processes.
