Egypts Ministry of Public Business Sector leads digital transformation

 

As organisations across Egypt face unprecedented challenges, they are turning to technologies that provide reliable insights to help them better support their employees, customers, and suppliers.

 

“The rise of Covid-19 has made every Egyptian organisation more aware about the importance of accelerating digital transformation to transform operations, innovation, and customer experiences,” said Hoda Mansour, Managing Director, SAP Egypt and Levant. “The Ministry of Public Business Sector, Polyserve, Coca-Cola, and HO Group are leading Middle East examples of how organisations can drive digital business innovation to manage the current challenges and emerge more competitive post-pandemic.”

 

The Ministry of Public Business Sector worked with PwC to digitally transform three organisations on the SAP S/4HANA real-time business suite: the Chemical Industry Holding Company, the Cotton Holding Company, and the Metallurgical Holding Company.

 

By automating business processes, the Ministry has full operational visibility and real-time decision-making, and enhanced profits, supply chain, manufacturing production, and customer experiences.
