In the vast economic region of Southeast Asia, approaching a population of 700 million, Japanese companies have been increasingly keen to invest in recent years. As the businesses of Japanese companies entering Southeast Asia grow and diversify, the number of consultations on technology-driven transformations has been rising. Our department has seen consistent and robust growth over the past three years.

Especially since COVID-19, there has been a significant increase in requests for projects that enhance integrated global management and transparency in management. The themes of these projects vary, but common points include:

In Southeast Asia, these themes often precede those in Japan, and we sometimes handle topics such as establishing new companies or restructuring business units. Our company is recognized for its comprehensive response capabilities, including technology, and we expect more opportunities in this area, which has led us to actively recruit for this position.

Examples of projects include:

• Global implementation of S/4 HANA for a digital entertainment company
• Overhaul of core systems to realize DX for a telecommunications company
• Building core systems to enhance business operations and management for a food manufacturer
• System construction to standardize operations at overseas locations for a hygiene products manufacturer
• Implementation of SAP IBP to achieve Demand & Supply Process for a pharmaceutical company

Utilizing our global group’s unique modeling tools, industry-specific solutions, and global best practices and know-how, you will lead SAP projects aimed at reconstructing customer businesses and strengthening global collaboration in large-scale projects.
