Client Detail:

The client was a $3.7B+ organization with 7,000+ employees operating in 16 states. The business is a public water utility provider across the United States with a focus on providing reliable, quality water to its customers.


MSS Business Transformation Advisory (MSSBTA) was engaged by the client to lead change management efforts across all regions for 2,100+ users and 1,700+ suppliers for a supply chain transformation effort. They transitioned to a new Procurement system and streamlined their business processes to be simpler, faster, and more efficient.


The Challenge:
