Customer Stories - Kraft Heinz

Modernising a critical warehouse, without disrupting operations

Kraft Heinz never had more than 72 hours downtime, for the duration of a major programme to migrate its UK NDC to SAP EWM. Operating one of the largest and most automated warehouses in its network, the business transitioned away from a legacy platform, while maintaining service levels, customer deliveries and day to day operations.

330,000 sq ft facility
77,500 pallets
11 high-bay cranes
97% automation
From the conception of the project through implementation, hypercare and continuous improvement, you’ve been with us every step of the way. Right from the top through to the people working with us on the ground and the people putting in endless hours in the middle of the night. We were one big team.
Stuart Alldridge Strategic Project Manager Logistics

Replacing the warehouse management system at its UK National Distribution Centre (NDC) was a major milestone in Kraft Heinz's wider global ERP strategy. The site's highly automated environment, multiple third party systems and logistics partners meant the project required careful planning, close collaboration and a seamless transition to minimise risk and ensure continuity of supply.

Working alongside Kraft Heinz and its logistics provider, TCT delivered a new SAP EWM solution that improved warehouse visibility, strengthened operational control and provided a platform for future innovation. Bringing inventory, yard and warehouse activities into a single SAP environment created greater transparency across operations, while aligning the site with Kraft Heinz's wider global SAP strategy and long term roadmap.
