The key business objective of INTERTOP is to transform into a powerful technological fashion platform, which reliably functions to provide a positive customer experience. The SAP S/4HANA implementation project accelerated the company's transformation, which was confirmed by a high rating from the SAP Quality Awards jury.
The SAP Quality Award represents a platform for SAP customers and their implementation partners, to share experience and lessons learned from successful SAP implementation projects.
The prestigious international award is given to companies that have implemented SAP solutions for their business needs in accordance with the highest world standards and achieved high-efficiency rates. An independent jury analyzes applications from dozens of SAP customers to select the best. Therefore, SAP Quality Awards winners and finalists receive the status of internationally recognized opinion leaders in the implementation and successful use of innovative SAP products and solutions.
The SAP system is software that can automate the professional activities of representatives of various specialties. Such applications are customized for a specific industry and significantly simplify work in this industry and communication with other structural units.
This is the first case of SAP S/4HANA implementation in fashion retail in Ukraine. The project team managed to make a productive launch of the new system in less than a year and despite the pandemic and lockdown, which forced the business client to completely switch to remote work in a short time!
In addition to SAP S4/HANA, SAP CAR — a specialized solution for the retail industry was also implemented. The peculiarity of the project was that the systems were deployed in the cloud.
"INTERTOP Ukraine in cooperation with its partner AGELESS demonstrated fast and successful implementation of SAP S/4HANA solution and provided excellent service to fashion chain customers even during the peak shopping season. The implementation of a new generation ERP-system, including analytical technology, allows collecting, processing and quickly analyzing sales data for the entire supermarket chain — a project that demonstrates that, despite the unpredictable conditions of the pandemic, the company is ready for change and confidently responds to external challenges. INTERTOP deservedly received recognition not only in Ukraine but also abroad, that confirms the entry of a domestic fashion retailer in the finals of the competition," said Maksym Matyash, SAP Ukraine director.

Their team brings together over 50 consultants with expertise and experience in the following industries: retail, manufacturing, distribution, pharmaceutics, telecommunications, etc.
"Implementing SAP S/4HANA was an ambitious task for us in terms of a fundamental change in the way the company functions. Launching software at this level doesn't just happen.
