MPHASIS ENABLES A WASTE MANAGEMENT ENTERPRISE TO ACHIEVE 30% REDUCTION IN COSTS IN A RISK-FREE CARVE OUT WITH CLOUDIFICATION

THE CLIENT

 

Asia's leading provider of comprehensive environment management services. The Client offered a whole gamut of best-in-class services under various categories such as Waste Management - hazardous, municipal, biomedical & e-waste; Recycling - waste water, paper, plastic and integrated waste. In addition, they also offer renewable energy, consultancy and integrated environment services.


Business need for the client was to reduce infrastructure cost by moving to cloud infrastructure that will support growth and help to enter new market segments. This will offer client the better possibilities to increase the utilization, stability and elasticity to scale.

THE OBJECTIVE

 

The client was looking to implement an efficient and seamless carve-out of its Applications & Infrastructure from the parent company, and wanted a partner to execute the following :

  • IT assessment of the current estate (Applications, Infrastructure, and processes)
  • Rebuilding of its server/network/hardware and OS versions by reducing technical debt and replacing end-of-life components
  • Recommendations for Future Mode of Operation (FMO), and establishing of the transformation roadmap

THE SOLUTION

 

With a focus on executing a risk-free carve-out, we deployed cloudification to bring tremendous efficiencies across the IT estate.

We leveraged our proprietary carve out framework to separate the applications (SAP and non-SAP) and infrastructure (security and end user services) of the parent and divested companies. Designing the infrastructure transformation to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) , we migrated application workloads to a cloud infrastructure, rationalized applications and hardware sizing, and implemented ITIL processes — before finally, deleting data from both parent and divested companies. We deployed automated test scripts for testing and three cycles of iteration and mock testing before cut-over, thereby ensuring a smooth go-live.


The tools and technologies we leveraged included

  • SAP S4HANA- FICO, FM, PS, MM,SD,PP,PM,QM,DMS & ETM
  • SAP B1
  • Net applications

BENEFITS

 

10+ years of data, 50+ legal entities and 300+ business processes of 400+ sites across 23 states were successfully carved out in a totally risk-free manner with cloudification, bringing in tremendous efficiencies across the IT estate.

Other outcomes included

  • 30% reduction in IT cost
  • Standardized adoption of SAP across LOBs
  • ITIL process implementation
