Unicorn completes global SAP upgrade

Sports equipment designer, manufacturer and distributor Unicorn Products reports a successful upgrade from SAP R3 to SAP ECC6.

Unicorn managing director Ed Lowy explains that the company has been running on a SAP ERP system since 1999, but that it needed a system capable of managing the growing complexities of the organisation and improving efficiency. "Unicorn Products has gone from strength to strength over the last 10 years and an upgrade was necessary to provide us with the maintenance and functionality we need to sustain our growth," he says. "Once we had decided it was time to upgrade we spoke to our implementation partner, Chelford, who we have maintained a strong relationship with," he adds. Lowy says that both SAP and Chelford had been good in the past, so they were "the obvious choice".
