From aviation and pharmaceuticals to industrial processing and energy, HPCL-Mittal Energy Limited (HMEL) delivers oil and gas solutions to several key business sectors and some domestic markets in India. Before the latest system upgrade, optimizing business-process and system performance were identified as key challenges. Early identification and ongoing process and system monitoring give HMEL the operational capability required to handle organizational requirements.

As part of its SAP Enterprise Support agreement, HMEL received proactive, relevant, ®and meaningful services during the latest SAP ERP application upgrade. Applying a series of continuous quality checks along with direct access to support experts proved to be a winning combination. This resulted in significantly increased efficiencies and a smooth system launch. And a more robust system is good news for system users and HMEL customers alike.
