Unilever Better Handles Enterprise Risk

Unilever has selected Triple Point Technology's SAP-endorsed Commodity SL to optimize commodity management across agricultural raw materials and business units. The solution supports the establishment of a global commodities operating team charged with optimizing raw material procurement. The centralized group will consolidate buying activities across all commodities and business units, allowing Unilever to proactively react to market changes and protect margins.

 

"Triple Point's joint commodity management solution with SAP enables Unilever to consolidate commodities procurement within an integrated platform, greatly increasing efficiency and improving risk management capabilities," says Seref Alptekin, operations director, Capabilities, Unilever. "With the price volatility we've seen in raw materials over the last several years, it's critical for Unilever to have the best risk management infrastructure in place."
