CLIENT
Tullis Russell Papermakers Ltd.

PROBLEM
Required assistance in sourcing and implementing a new manufacturing system.

SOLUTION
Best Practice Group helps to deliver a solution on-time and on-budget.

RESULT
A solution that the company wanted.

HOW IT HAPPENED
Having been burned once with an expensive
system that never lived up to expectations, Tullis
decided to bring in a procurement, contract and
business transformation specialist to project manage
its new mill-wide production, sales and warehousing
system implementation. This involved mapping every
step of the operation from business objectives to
system specifications, sourcing the supplier, negotiating
contracts, software testing and all stages to go-live.

The end result was a solution that delivers what
the company wanted, on time and on budget with
no ‘scope creep’. Not only was the new system
installed at half the cost of the previous application, it
caused no interruptions to Tullis’ high-volume
production schedule, and therefore no revenue loss.
