Improving ERP Health in Indonesia via RISE with SAP

Arya Noble, a prominent player in Indonesia’s healthcare and new ventures, has embarked on a transformative digital journey powered by RISE with SAP. This cloud-based ERP offers complete solutions, infrastructure, and services that help migrate and empower Arya Noble to the cloud, optimize operations, boost agility, and redefine healthcare experiences.

Arya Noble’s flagship brand, ERHA, is synonymous with top-tier clinic treatments, while its portfolio extends to brands like GENERO, Derma XP, and Marco. Across its portfolio, Arya Noble owns and manages the entire end-to-end process, from manufacturing and distribution to brand establishment. To further its commitment to cutting-edge skin health solutions, Arya Noble established Skinproof, Indonesia’s only local dermatology research lab, which has rigorously tested countless global skincare and makeup products.

A robust, agile, and scalable ERP system

A consequence of having such a diverse business portfolio, spanning manufacturing to consumer, is that Arya Noble needs a robust, agile, and scalable ERP system. Unfortunately, the legacy system it had been relying on was unable to scale as needed. The organization also experienced challenges in traceability from downstream to upstream due to its siloed data across multiple internal departments, often creating time inefficiencies.

Recognizing the limitations of its existing digital infrastructure, Arya Noble launched a comprehensive digital transformation initiative in 2022, aiming to strengthen its online presence, enhance customer engagement, and optimize its internal operations for future growth. As part of this journey, Arya Noble decided to implement RISE with SAP at the end of Q3 2023, with the aim of fostering predictive manufacturing. This is also aligned with the Indonesian Government’s nation-building agenda through the ‘Making Indonesia 4.0’ roadmap, which urges healthcare industry players to integrate advanced technologies into their operations.

The implementation of SAP solutions, including SAP Finance, SAP Controlling, SAP Material Management, SAP Warehouse Management, SAP Production Planning, SAP Sales and Distribution, SAP Quality Management, and SAP Plant Maintenance, using the RISE with SAP approach is targeted at facilitating a more fastidious exchange of data between the Sales and Finance departments, improving reporting mechanisms, and boosting the visibility of critical information. This is aimed at more efficient book closing procedures. For Arya Noble, SAP’s cloud ERP offering intends to enhance traceability, enabling predictive manufacturing insights gathered from downstream to upstream processes within the organization.

Digitalization and data-driven decisions

Yonathan Moniaga, Arya Noble’s Chief Innovation Officer, emphasized the importance of transitioning to RISE with SAP to support the company’s diverse and expanding business portfolio. “To meet complex business needs, Arya Noble has embraced SAP solutions as part of its digitalization strategy. Our journey focuses on growing sustainably through automation and data-driven decisions. With RISE with SAP, we can already see the potential, and with every step forward, we bring ourselves closer to delivering products that truly meet our customers’ needs.”
