“Warburtons selected Seven due to the experience shown by its consultants, it' understanding of best practice supply chain processes, the change management implication of these processes and the required technical solutions to implement them. It was the combination of skills that was attractive to Warburtons, as opposed to a consultancy which focuses solely on either the technical solution or the high level process.”

“Seven very rapidly identify areas of improvement and untapped opportunities, and were able to work with us in developing a progressive plan of implementation.
They managed to understand our business very quickly, talk to us in a non IT manner, and put us in a much better position to realise the benefits of our SAP implementation.”
