Lion, one of Australasia’s largest beverage companies, faced rising pressure to modernise its legacy ERP, safeguard its digital sales channels, and reduce inefficiencies across the business. In this session, Jamie Grande, Head of Enterprise Applications at Lion, shares how the company executed a bold, multi-stream transformation that simplified its ERP core, scaled digital operations, and introduced AI-powered tools to frontline teams.

By moving to RISE with SAP and adopting a clean-core model, Lion accelerated upgrades, reduced reporting times from 1.5 hours to 6 minutes, and created new capacity for innovation. At the same time, the team delivered a zero-disruption migration from SAP Hybris to SAP Commerce Cloud Version 2, securing critical digital channels that account for the majority of customer orders. To empower field teams, Lion built an AI-powered mobile app on SAP BTP in under 10 days, transforming how data is captured and used in customer engagement.

Lion’s journey demonstrates how business and technology can co-create measurable outcomes: stronger financial reporting, more resilient commerce operations, and the agility to innovate at speed.
