Sector-Specific Competence in the Consumer & Luxury Foodstuffs Industry
J&M Management Consulting is a SAP 'Special Expertise Partner' for middle-sized companies in the consumer & luxury goods sector
Due to years of experience and a thorough knowledge of the foodstuffs industry, J&M is able to cater for industry-specific criteria: 
  • allowing for minimum shelf-life,
  • promotional and seasonal trade,
  • brand names and discount items,
  • frequent changes of product and packaging.  
Over the years, J&M has been able to employ this expertise for some of the most illustrious names in the industry, including Griesson de Beukelaer and UNIQ/Nadler Fine Foods. Apart from its extensive industry-sector expertise, J&M provides a process-orientated integrated consultancy approach, combining strategies and business processes with IT solutions. The IT sector represents yet another field of competence for the management consultants. J&M’s IT expertise has been consolidated by an exhaustive long-term cooperation with the SAP AG. J&M is 'Special Expertise Partner' for SCM, LES, BI and Financials in the consumer-goods industry, as well as in other market sectors. J&M's own independent status as consultancy partner for middle-sized consumer & luxury foodstuffs companies has also served to strengthen its bond with SAP. Thus, J&M has not only had ample opportunity to demonstrate its SAP expertise in numerous implementation projects, it has also functioned as favoured SAP partner during numerous system-optimisation projects, where the emphasis was on improving the existing applications. According to Klaus Ballas, J&M Management Consulting Partner, 'J&M’s specific combination of industry experience and consummate SAP expertise generates value-added for the client company. By introducing the practice-orientated SAP NuG middle-sized company solution, for example, we can help our clients achieve their self-determined goals and to realise their projected benefits. J&M’s contribution can be measured by the results.' For more information: Klaus Ballas, Partner, J&M Management Consulting, telephone: +49 (0) 621 12 47 69 0 or via email: k.ballasjnm.com.
