The Capital Maharaja Group (CMG) has successfully launched its SAP RISE implementation, marking a significant advancement in digital transformation. This achievement solidifies CMG’s position as a leader in technology adoption, executing an unprecedented go-live for 73 companies within just four months and completing over 100 integrations.

The rapid resolution of all post-go-live issues within two weeks reflects the strength of CMG’s implementation strategy, supported by notable contributions from its SAP partner, Samishthi Infortech, the internal IT team, and cloud partner, Google Cloud. Their collaboration has enabled exceptional agility and resilience throughout the transition.

The dialogue underscored the strategic direction guided by CMG Chairman Sashi Rajamahendran.

The relationship between CMG and SAP dates back to 2013, when it executed a successful “big bang” go-live across 19 companies, earning the prestigious ACE Award for Best Implementation. In 2019, CMG transitioned to Microsoft Azure, facilitating a seamless continuity of operations.
