HCLTech has won a multi-year contract from Zurich-based SR Technics, a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) service provider in the civil aviation industry, to digitally transform its activities. Deal financials were not disclosed.

HCLTech will implement a greenfield SAP S/4HANA environment hosted on Microsoft Azure using RISE with SAP. Moving to an agile, cloud-based ERP platform will allow SR Technics to transform and simplify its business operations and optimize IT operating costs across offices in Europe, Americas, Asia and the Middle East, providing comprehensive, fully customized MRO solutions for aircraft engines, airframe and components.

“Our move to SAP S/4HANA and the adoption of iMRO is the technology foundation of SR Technics’ ‘ReSeT’ program, as we look to reduce operational complexity and further enhance our service delivery to customers” said Patrick Kuster, Senior Vice President IT and executive sponsor of the ReSeT digital transformation program at SR Technics.

To augment its SAP S/4HANA deployment and future operations, SR Technics will implement iMRO, HCLTech’s MRO industry add-on for SAP, a maintenance software solution.

“This contract highlights HCLTech’s strong partnership with SAP and our innovative product engineering capabilities. SR Technics works with many of the world’s major airlines and aerospace manufacturers, making this a significant engagement as we further grow our business in the DACH region and across the aviation sector globally,” said Pankaj Tagra, Corporate Vice President, Europe and Africa, HCLTech.
