Colgate-Palmolive: The Business Value of ERP
Colgate-Palmolive is a global consumer products company that implemented the SAP R/3 enterprise resource planning system. Colgate embarked on an implementation of SAP R/3 to allow the company to access more timely and accurate data, get the most out of working capital, and reduce manufacturing costs.

The implementation of SAP across the Colgate supply chain contributed to increased profitability.

Case Problem: Specialty Toys
You are an inventory specialist for Specialty Toys, Inc. The company sells a variety of new and innovative children's toys. You know that the preholiday season is the best time to introduce a new toy because many families use this time to look for new ideas for
December holiday gifts. When the company discovers a new toy with good market potential, it chooses an October market-entry date.
For you to get toys in your stores by October, you place one-time orders with manufacturers in June or July of each year. You are aware that demand for children's toys can be highly volatile. If a new toy catches on, a sense of shortage in the marketplace often
increases the demand to high levels and large profits can be realized. However, new toys can also flop, leaving the company stuck with high levels of inventory that must be sold at reduced prices.
