SPC Group said on the 10th that it has built a next-generation ERP (enterprise resource planning) system. The move is seen as an effort to accelerate Digital Transformation in earnest.

SPC Group has been carrying out a "next-generation ERP project" since 2022 to maximize management efficiency and respond quickly to a rapidly changing business environment. Through this, it integrated systems that had been operated separately across 13 subsidiaries, 27 plants, and 31 logistics centers and upgraded them so that all affiliates can perform and manage tasks quickly and conveniently with a standardized system.

SPC Group's next-generation ERP was built around a "3S (standardization, smart, speed)" strategy. The biggest change in the next-generation ERP is standardization. It converted business processes and data information frameworks that had been physically separated and managed to a cloud-based system and integrated them. Not only has the management and sharing of information become more convenient, but launching new brands and expanding businesses has also become easier.

In the smart area, 15 new solutions were introduced to automate and digitize key business systems. In terms of speed, it increased large-scale data processing speed and added data visualization functions to establish a system that supports swift decision-making. According to SPC Group, this will increase efficiency and strengthen competitiveness across the entire SCM framework, from materials and supplies purchasing and quality control to sales/finance and logistics.

In addition, SPC Group newly adopted an advanced "industrial safety management system" to strengthen safety management. Through this, it digitized safety investment status, safety diagnostics, and employee proposals and processes, enabling each affiliate to manage safety management activities more systematically and strengthen preventive systems.

An SPC Group official said, "SPC Group, which was the first in the industry to introduce an ERP system in 2000, has laid an important foundation for strengthening future competitiveness by building this next-generation ERP system," and added, "We will continue to proactively adopt new IT and AI (artificial intelligence) technologies to realize digitalization and move toward the vision of a 'Great Food Company.'"
