Unilab Philippines’ largest pharmaceutical and healthcare company, has embarked on a strategic business transformation initiative powered by RISE with SAP to help enterprises transition to cloud ERP and unlock the full potential of SAP Business Suite.
This initiative is expected to enable Unilab to reimagine its business processes with AI-powered enterprise applications.
The company is leveraging SAP S/4HANA Cloud – offered as part of RISE with SAP – to drive standardisation, operational efficiency, and economies of scale.
To further strengthen its operations, Unilab is adopting RISE with SAP on Amazon Web Services (AWS) to enhance decision-making and operational efficiency.
This transition will modernise its core ERP systems and introduce new solution components and capabilities, powered by SAP Business Suite, including SAP Business AI and SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP), equipping Unilab with the agility to better navigate the complexities of the pharmaceutical industry.
Additionally, Unilab is streamlining its supply chain and manufacturing processes, and integrating more automation and data analytics to drive greater efficiency.
“Twenty years ago, we were running on multiple tech platforms, but it was a much simpler business back then,” said Sebastian Frederick Baquiran, president and CEO at Unilab. “Today, not only does Unilab Group have a strong product business in pharmaceuticals, we now have a significant and growing healthcare service business. It is our vision to be the champions of healthcare and life sciences in this part of the world… and this moment presents a golden opportunity to further streamline and enhance our processes and policies.”
“Jill Santos, managing director of SAP Philippines, said that by modernising its core systems with SAP S/4HANA Cloud and leveraging standardized framework and proven transformation methodology offered in RISE with SAP, Unilab is building a future-ready enterprise.
