10 May 2020 marked the launch of ERP systems at KIC, namely PeopleSoft for Finance & Procurement departments.
“The system will help us in alleviating many challenges” noted KIC President and the CEO of KHC Dr. Assem Al Hajj. Integration of Enterprise Resource Planning systems on a holding level is a transition of business processes changing the overall approach to workflow management, effectiveness, accuracy, and efficiency. This means that time-consuming tasks are now automated, reporting is available a click away, internal processes are streamlined considering the systematic approval chain, in addition to other benefits to the internal and external stakeholders. Above all, KHC, KIC, and KTS staff will have on the go access to the system via their mobile devices, by that enhancing flexibility and efficiency.
Implementation of ERP systems in addition to the recent launch of Blackboard, are just steps in KIC’s strategic mission pertaining to Digital transformation and digital readiness.
