Posted by Mumbai: Global tech company HCLTech said it has signed a multi-year contract to digitally transform SR Technics’ operations,
SR Technics is a leading maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) service provider in the civil aviation industry. It works with an extensive network of partners and business development offices in Europe, Americas, Asia and the Middle East.
The Zurich, Switzerland-based company offers comprehensive, fully customized MRO solutions for aircraft engines, airframes and components including technical support to over 500 customers worldwide.
For SR Technics, HCLTech will implement a new greenfield SAP S/4HANA environment hosted on Microsoft Azure using RISE with SAP. The cloud-based ERP platform will allow SR Technics to transform and simplify its business operations, enabling it to modernise the application stack and optimise IT operating costs.
To augment its SAP S/4HANA deployment and future operations, SR Technics will implement iMRO, HCLTech’s MRO industry add-on for SAP. iMRO is a smart maintenance software solution, which aims to enhance overall visibility and operational effectiveness.
iMRO is currently used by more than 50 customers globally and SR Technics’ deployment is the first on SAP S/4HANA using RISE with SAP.
“Our move to SAP S/4HANA and the adoption of iMRO is the technology foundation of SR Technics’ ‘ReSeT’ program, as we look to reduce operational complexity and further enhance our service delivery to customers,” said Patrick Kuster, SVP IT and executive sponsor of the ReSeT digital transformation program at SR Technics.
“The combined SAP and HCLTech offering was the only solution that fully met our unique business requirements. It provides a future-proof technology foundation to optimise and grow our engines operations. HCLTech’s industry knowledge and SAP transformation expertise combined with its global and local delivery capabilities really stood out when it came to selecting our technology partner,” added Kuster.
“We look forward to supercharging SR Technics’ business transformation with SAP. This contract highlights HCLTech’s strong partnership with SAP and our innovative product engineering capabilities,” said Pankaj Tagra, Corporate VP – Europe and Africa, HCLTech.
“SR Technics works with many of the world’s major airlines and aerospace manufacturers, making this a significant engagement as we further grow our business in the DACH region and across the aviation sector globally,” added Tagra.
