This role encompasses requirements gathering, solution design, configuration, implementation, testing, and ongoing operational support, with a focus on business transformation and continuous improvement.

The consultant will work closely with business stakeholders and cross-functional teams to improve inventory accuracy, warehouse productivity, process traceability, and operational stability.

Key Responsibilities

1. Solution Design & Business Stakeholder Engagement

• Lead requirements-gathering workshops and process design sessions with stakeholders across logistics, warehousing, procurement, manufacturing, and IT.

• Map current-state (as-is) and future-state (to-be) processes, identifying functional gaps, operational bottlenecks, dependencies, and improvement opportunities.

• Conduct fit-to-standard and gap analyses, prioritizing standard SAP functionality and providing clear business justification for custom enhancements.

• Design end-to-end warehouse solutions that address transaction volumes, traceability, productivity, and inventory controls.

• Document solution decisions, assumptions, constraints, and integration impacts, maintaining traceability between business requirements and the proposed solution.

2. SAP EWM Configuration & Warehouse Processes

• Configure warehouse organizational structures, including warehouse numbers, storage types, storage bins, activity areas, and work centers.

• Implement inbound warehouse processes, including receiving, unloading, verification, goods receipt posting, and putaway.

• Configure internal warehouse movements, replenishment, stock transfers, physical inventory, and inventory adjustments.

• Maintain warehouse process types, warehouse tasks, warehouse orders, determination strategies, and Warehouse Order Creation Rules (WOCR).

• Configure Handling Unit (HU) management, packing processes, and relevant master data.

• Support radio frequency (RF) execution, mobile data capture, resource management, and execution queues.

• Support batch management, serial number tracking, and shelf-life management based on operational requirements.

• Configure Post Processing Framework (PPF) actions and document outputs when included in the solution scope.

3. Integration & Functional Specifications

• Design and validate integration between SAP EWM and SAP ERP or SAP S/4HANA, covering MM, SD, PP, QM, and TM processes as applicable.

• Analyze document flows between enterprise systems and warehouse operations, identifying inconsistencies and process dependencies.

• Develop functional specifications for interfaces, reports, forms, enhancements, and extensions.

• Collaborate with ABAP developers and integration teams to define requirements, validate solutions, and troubleshoot technical issues.

• Support integration with external systems, RF/ITS mobile solutions, data capture devices, and warehouse automation technologies, where applicable.

• Investigate integration queues and interface failures, including RFC, IDoc, and web service scenarios when used within the project landscape.

4. Testing, Deployment & Hypercare

• Prepare and execute unit testing, integration testing, regression testing, and User Acceptance Testing (UAT) scenarios.

• Validate end-to-end processes, including operational exceptions, inventory reconciliation, and cross-module dependencies.

• Support master data preparation, initial data loads, and data validation activities.

• Participate in cutover planning and execution, including readiness criteria and pre-go-live checks.

• Provide go-live and hypercare support, prioritizing issues based on operational impact.

• Maintain test evidence, support defect resolution, and obtain business sign-off.

• Prepare configuration documentation, standard operating procedures (SOPs), training materials, and end-user guides.

5. Operational Support, Continuous Improvement & Knowledge Transfer

• Analyze incidents and recurring problems, identify root causes, and implement sustainable functional fixes.

• Use the SAP EWM Warehouse Management Monitor and relevant applications to investigate documents, warehouse tasks, inventory, and integration issues.

• Evaluate change requests and estimate effort, risks, dependencies, and business impacts.

• Identify improvements that enhance inventory accuracy, reduce rework, and increase warehouse execution efficiency.

• Provide functional guidance, mentoring, and knowledge transfer to consultants and business users.

• Coordinate functional deliverables with onshore, offshore, and partner teams, proactively escalating blockers and delivery risks.

• Practical experience with warehouse organizational structures, master data, warehouse tasks and orders, storage strategies, and picking strategies.

• Functional knowledge of Handling Unit (HU) management, RF processes, replenishment, and operational monitoring.

• Experience supporting SAP EWM implementations, rollouts, enhancements, or application support engagements with broad functional scope.

• Understanding of SAP ERP or SAP S/4HANA integration and its impact on end-to-end logistics processes.
