BARCELONA: The refractory business is expected to develop, and SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) announced today that RHI Magnesita (LSE: RHIM) has opted to restructure and optimize its technological infrastructure through the use of SAP’s RISE with SAP solution.
Leading the world in refractories, RHI Magnesita supplies vital components of the infrastructure we depend on and utilize every day. RHI Magnesita has 47 primary production sites worldwide and exports its high-grade refractory products, systems, and solutions to over 100 countries.
RHI Magnesita needed a technological foundation that would enable end-to-end contact between its customers, suppliers, and business partners across all locations, end markets, and product lines to realize its vision of sustainably managing heat to build a better world. After deciding to deploy a multi-tier architecture that includes both the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition and Private Edition, RHI Magnesita is now prepared to revamp all of its technical procedures and infrastructure completely.
“With the revamped digital landscape that we will shape together with SAP, RHI Magnesita will transform into a digitally fortified company, centered around our customers and driven by data,” said Ticiana Kobel, Executive VP of Legal & Digital Transformation at RHI Magnesita. A critical turning point in RHI Magnesita’s path toward unmatched efficiency, agility, and innovation is the switch to SAP S/4HANA Cloud. This will allow us to improve decision-making throughout our worldwide network, access real-time information, and streamline operations.
RHI Magnesita will reduce its infrastructure footprint, gain a single, unified view of its operations and supply chain, and position itself for more seamless integration of upcoming acquisitions while generating cost savings using SAP S/4HANA Cloud.
Alexander Klaeger, President of SAP MEE, stated, “RHI Magnesita is embarking on a true digital transformation that will see the streamlining of several landscapes that will allow it to leverage the cost savings, scalability, and flexibility that come with moving to the cloud.” “I’m thrilled to see RHI Magnesita use SAP S/4HANA Cloud to sustainably provide the infrastructure the world needs,” said the industry leader.
