Story
Inside Lowe's, order to cash used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer discretionary groups working out of the United States. Order desk and finance needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Lowe's uses SAP SuccessFactors from SAP as the working layer for order management. SAP is the global leader in enterprise resource planning software, with S/4HANA, business technology platform services, and industry cloud applications. The practical change is simple: order to cash has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Lowe's gets from SAP is a durable place to run order to cash and a way for order desk and finance to see the same order management at the same time.
