Summary

ADM Agriculture implemented NetSuite SuiteSuccess Financials First for their Pakistan and Dubai subsidiaries.

In the face of agricultural industry volatility characterized by unpredictable market prices and supply chain disruptions, ADM recognized the need for a robust ERP across its international operations. They approached Folio3 for NetSuite implementation for its Pakistan and Dubai subsidiaries to strengthen operational resilience. This implementation presented significant challenges, particularly as the regional team in Pakistan had limited prior experience with the NetSuite platform.

The Challenge

  • ADM Agriculture was having a challenge in implementing ERP for its Dubai and Pakistan subsidiaries.
  • Their Pakistan team was newly established and unfamiliar with NetSuite.
  • Looking for a partner to implement NetSuite and train their team on NetSuite.

Solution

Folio3 successfully configured and implemented NetSuite SuiteSuccess Financials First for ADM Agriculture, streamlining key process areas. For Record to Report, the setup included general accounting, subsidiary management, fiscal close processes, and bank feeds via SaltEdge. In Procure to Pay, Folio3 managed vendor and employee data, purchase orders, vendor payments, and implemented two custom bank formats for Dubai and Pakistan, along with a 3-way match workflow. The Order to Cash process covered customer data, sales orders, invoices, and a one-level sales invoice approval workflow. Additionally, Folio3 configured Design to Build with a basic item master and ensured seamless financial reporting and analytics, including KPIs and standard reports. NetSuite was also integrated to facilitate electronic payment file transfers to an SFTP site.

Result

Folio3 provided the setup of the ADM Agriculture NetSuite account with the following subsidiary structure:

  • A Parent Group in Pakistan
  • A single Subsidiary in Pakistan
  • A single Subsidiary in Dubai
ADM Agriculture faced significant challenges in implementing NetSuite across its Dubai and Pakistan subsidiaries, particularly with its newly established Pakistan team lacking experience with NetSuite. Despite these obstacles, we successfully deployed a comprehensive solution that addressed local regulatory requirements, streamlined operations, and provided extensive training for their inexperienced staff. Our ongoing partnership continues to support ADM’s ERP maturity, helping both locations optimize system capabilities while adapting to evolving business needs.
