Angelicoussis Group’s fleet to be managed by the innovative SAP On-Board platform

SAP Hellas announces the successful implementation of the new S/4HANA on Cloud ERP as well as the SAP OnBoard for the management of Angelicousis Group’s entire fleet. The new solution’s structure is based on S/4HANA (installed on HANA Enterprise Cloud) and Cloud solution SAP SuccessFactors for crew management as well as human resource management (HRMS) of the Group. SAP OnBoard, a third innovative solution based on SAP Edge Services, introduces specific functions of S/4HANA in the fleet. This is one of the largest and most innovative implementations of the specifc platform in the Greek market as well as on global level. The absolute, out of the box interconnection of these three solutions (SAP SuccessFactors, SAP S/4 HANA, SAP OnBoard) offers almost real-time communication with each ship of the group.

Τhe smooth transition of all systems, in order to lay the foundations for its imminent digital transformation, was the success factor for Angelicoussis Group. Creating suitable technological infrastructure combined with a top web-based system to meet its needs, minimizing the barriers in data and knowledge sharing, replacing various systems with a more functional, centralized one, simplifying and significantly reducing the workload of captains thanks to the secure, remotely controlled on-board solutions installed on ships and, finally, the real time and at any time access to quality data and financial informationare listed among the benefits of the solution.

Angelicoussis Group provides maritime transport services worldwide, owning a fleet of more than 150 ships. Angelicoussis Group is a leader in the sector of bulk carriers, tankers and liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessels.
