Sterigenics is a provider of sterilization and laboratory services to the healthcare, food safety and advanced application market segments. In 2004, Sterigenics became independent from its parent company and had a collection of disconnected legacy systems in its application portfolio. It launched a project to standardize its enterprise applications with a single, global IT platform. They decided to implement a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution and also decided to secure application support services in addition to 24x7 operational support. Sterigenics contracted with IBM for a full-service Applications on Demand solution. Read how their decision yielded a faster and more cost-effective approach. |
