Sanquin, the Netherlands blood products supplier, used itelligence to migrate two separate SAP company codes into one shared environment. The project combined five independent finance teams into a single centralized department, eliminated redundant accounts payable and receivable records, and removed 5,000-10,000 internal invoices annually. SAP modules implemented include FICO, MM, WM, PP-PI, QM, SD and PM under validated pharmaceutical compliance.
