Tromink Accelerates Growth with SAP S/4HANA

With more than three decades of experience, Tromink has established itself as one of the leading names in the industrial and agricultural sector in Brazil. Located in the Industrial District of Panambi-RS, the company has experienced accelerated growth in recent years, which motivated the modernization and integration of its operations. To support this expansion and prepare the company for future challenges, Tromink chose to implement SAP S/4HANA and partnered with Meta to lead the process of digital transformation and evolution.

Choosing SAP S/4HANA: A strategic step for the future

The decision to adopt SAP S/4HANA came after a careful analysis of Tromink’s needs. The company identified that, in addition to investing in machines, people, and processes, it was essential to have a management tool that would improve its ability to make strategic decisions with greater agility and control, providing more accurate real-time information for decision-making. As highlighted by Tromink’s CEO, Giliane Brandt: "The implementation of SAP meets our need for more accurate and real-time information, so that we can manage the company in a more controlled way". This reflects Tromink’s commitment to sustained growth and continuous innovation.

In addition to choosing the right technology, implementation also required a solid partnership to ensure that the project was executed efficiently and aligned with Tromink’s needs. The partnership with Meta also stood out for the company’s specialized knowledge of the sector and its close relationship with the client. "Meta’s knowledge of our business was a differentiator. They were always open to conversations and realignments, helping us ensure that each phase of the project was successfully completed", adds Giliane.

Change Management: A pillar for the success of SAP S/4HANA implementation

In addition to technology, Organizational Change Management (OCM) played a crucial role in ensuring that Tromink’s employees adapted to the new system. "We had many anxieties during the process, but Meta’s consulting guided us assertively, ensuring that each step was completed at the right time, with the right information", shared Aline Bairros, one of the project leaders.

Meta brought a close and continuous support approach, adjusting the process as needed. "Meta’s role was fundamental in change management, bringing experience and expertise to help us complete each phase of the project", reinforces Aline.

Results and Expectations

Although in the first months of using SAP S/4HANA, Tromink has already noticed significant improvements in integration between areas. "Today, we can already see a difference in processes and operational efficiency", says Maiquel Roberto Schneider, responsible for Tromink’s IT area.

However, he emphasizes that there is still a way to go: "We now have information we didn’t have before, but we are in the process of learning how to use it strategically."

The company’s expectation is that, over time and with adaptation to the new system, the benefits will expand, enabling further optimization of operations management, better communication between departments, and leveraging the potential of real-time data for more accurate decisions aligned with strategic objectives.

A promising future with Meta

The partnership with Meta is seen as a long-term relationship, essential for Tromink’s continued growth. "I think the great benefit is providing this support for Tromink’s growth, so we can better serve our customers and help conquer new markets", concludes Maiquel.
