Executive Summary
The following report focuses on the enterprise information system of the Geneva Steel Plant.
The Geneva Steel Plant is situated in Utah and is the only steel industry aligning IT with its
business process. The company first comprised of more than 2400 employees. About 75% of
the production of the company mainly focuses on producing sheet and steel plate while the
rest of the percentage comprises of production of pipes and coils. Before the implementation
of Enterprise Resource Planning system, the company of Geneva steel used to process their
business with the help of different computers consisting of different software based on the
requirement of the business. The systems that are being implemented in the company, are
used to generate reports of three different types such as operational report, daily operational
report and daily reports for operation. For the managers of the company, it was hard to
analyze all these reports daily and to keep a track of all the orders that are done by the
customers. In measure to solve all these issues the company of Geneva steel plant decided to
process with business process re-engineering and meanwhile started the Delta Project. The
aim of the delta project is to affect the systematic procedure of the business process of
Geneva Steel Plant with respect to the corporate system. The main target of the company is
to reduce the cost by 20% as compared to the cost in the year 1996. The business of Geneva
company mainly focused on the on-time delivery and fulfillment of the orders by maintaining
accuracy, reduced customer complaint, and yielding the manufacturing limit with inventory
levels and products. As a measure to bring about everything under one single platform, the
Geneva Steel Company decided to implement the SAP in its business process. The
expectation of the company from SAP implementation were fewer based on the hardware and
software requirements, analyzing all the daily reports together, accessing information without
hassle, making decisions while vigorously analyzing the data, to create a strong bond
between the information system and the accounting field of the business and many more. As

2ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
a result of the implementation of SAP in the integration of the accounting functions, about 80
to 12 staffs may lead to drop in the information technology. The entire project cost estimation
for the implementation of SAP was between $8 million to $10 million dollars. The people of
the organisation were very much reluctant to accept the changing scenario of the company
culture butt the organisation was firm enough in its place to implement the SAP in its
business process. The following report is prepared to discuss about the detailed history of the
company of Geneva steel and its different problems in the legacy system including
management of information system and enhancing customer satisfaction. The report focuses
on the different strategies that the company took with respect to its business rationale,
technological rationale and business process rationales. Based on this rationale the company
decided to implement SAP in its business process. The report reflects the different advantages
and disadvantages that are faced while implanting SAP in the organisation. The last part of
the report focuses on the current position of the Geneva steel company and hence concludes
with the importance of SAP implementation in manufacturing industries especially in steel
industries.

Introduction:
Geneva Steel is one of the integrated steel mills located in Vineyard, Utah on the west
of the Mississippi River. The steel company started in the year 1998. The Geneva steel
company was born out of necessity in a time of war. The plant represented the pinnacle of an
industrial era that was spent. The major customer base of the Geneva steel company was
developed in the western part and to the central of the United States. Geneva steel used to sell
its products to different service centers and distributors of steel. About three fourth of the
sales of Geneva consists of sheet and plant steel and the rest of the sales included coils and
pipes. Geneva steel used to produce cut -to- length plates that are used in the manufacturing
process of the ships, various industrial equipment and barges. The steel plate that Geneva
used to produce is also used in the construction of wide range of products which includes
buildings, roads, bridges and many more (Taniguchi 2018). The Geneva Steel plant is one of
the largest construction projects under the government of United States that was developed
during the era of World War II. During the world war II, the Geneva Steel plant was
responsible for constructing more than 2000 class liberty ships which were designed to
deliver food, ammunitions and clothes overseas (Gajdzik and Sitko 2014). The Geneva Steel
plant was mainly focused on producing hot-rolled steel sheets and a variety of construction
materials that were needed as a part of the war effort. The company was also responsible for
producing non-steel materials and semi-finished slabs which are formed from the by-products
of the operations of steel making procedure. But soon after the mill operation got under the
way, after the world war, the federal government of United States started bidding for the
plant. The steel company started modernizing the plant by implementing new technological
procedures in its existing outdated technologies (Kaiser 2018). The operation cost of the
Geneva Steel Plant was also thoroughly scrutinized and the existing backdated equipment
were also replaced in terms to avoid the main problem that raised in the company which is

5ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
the future liability of pollution. The overall culture of Geneva is similar to that of a traditional
steel mill. The Geneva Steel plant has the widest and thickest plate cutting and levelling line
which are used to facilitate the generation of products. The steel company of Geneva adopted
various programs in order to modernize the plant with new mill operations after the company
went down (Carter 2014). The prevailing technology of the company was outdated and the
operating costs needs to be carefully scrutinized. As a measure to it, the company started
replacing its equipments with new facilities. The following report will discuss about the
various technological implementation initiatives that the Geneva Steel Company undertook
and one of the main implementations is the introduction of SAP in its business process.
Discussion:
Problems that Geneva have with their legacy system:
1. The Steel plant of Geneva have various problems related to the legacy system of the plant.
The information system that the Geneva Steel Plant have evolved over time to time including
a number of assorted systems. This gave rise to a situation of one system with many software
and thus integrating the information and accessing them became difficult. According to
report, the company have a mainframe and a major accounting system. The company have
large numbers of computers running on different software and thus managing information
from these systems becomes difficult. Also this problem gives rise to slowing down of
computers as a result of which the systems cannot provide necessary data when it is required.
2. Another issue that Geneva Steel Plant have with their information system is that though the
current system of information generates a considerable amount of data related to transaction,
but still most of the data remains unavailable from the transaction system. The information
system of Geneva generates several datapoints but they remain inaccessible to the company
as they are not integrated with each other.

6ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
3. One of the main issues that is faced with the legacy system is that the prevalent
information system of the firm yields three different types of report consisting of operational
report, sales report and reports related to accounting and shipment details. These reports are
generated in a daily basis also known as the Daily operational report or the DOR. Thus, it
becomes very difficult to analyze those reports collectively. One relief in this context is that
the reports are generated via email so the official do not have to go through bunch of papers
every day but the issue related to analysis remains the same in this case. As different data are
produced in different reports it becomes impossible for the company to generate important
information that would be beneficial for the company in terms of generating daily operational
needs for the company’s business growth.
4. The legacy system of the Geneva Steel Plant does not provide necessary knowledge related
to the customers and their orders. As a result of which the company officials remain unaware
of the costs related to the hot metal that are being used for a particular customer demand. The
representatives inside the sales team of the Geneva steel company often face difficulty in
figuring out the orders and their particular needs as demanded by the customers from the data
provided by the information system about the customers and their orders.
5. Focusing on communication with customers is an important aspect for any business
organization in terms of gaining the long-term successes. In any company’s early stage, it is
important to have an effective communication with its customers in order to ensure that the
products and services that are offered and delivered exactly meets with the immediate
demands of the customers. Regular communication with the customers allows the company
to adopt and grow in the market position meeting its requirements. The information system of
Geneva Steel plant also lacks in providing proper communication with the customers
(Haddara and Elragal 2015). Customers often do not get notified about the status of their
orders about the quality and the time when the order will get delivered. This also affects the

7ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
business process of the company as the it lacks communication with the customers as well as
with the officials internally.
6. The current integration process that the information system of Geneva Steel Company
provides is mainly based on mental work. Thus, it becomes a critical part in order to manage t
the jobs (Henningsson Kude and Popp 2016). The managers have to play the role of the
integrators besides looking and analyzing the reports of the operation, sales and accounting in
a daily basis. As the whole integration process mainly works by mental calculation hence it
becomes difficult for the managers to execute a business plan where they have to constantly
struggle with the integration of the information collected from the information system.
7. The last but not the least the legacy issue that is faced with information system of Geneva
Steel Company is that it does not provide any interface between the feeding and care of a
program between users and other programs. Also, the company comprises of limited number
of people who are aware of technology and other specific applications. Only a few numbers
of accountants have the knowledge to understand the programs and information that are
required for the use of the data analysis.
Business, technology, rationale for Geneva to undertake SAP implementation:
SAP implementation: SAP or system application and product implementation is defined as a
method that is carried out in order to implement the enterprise resource planning software in
any business organisation (Hustad Haddara and Kalvenes 2016). The implementation of SAP
is described as a method based on the practices that are done based on the collection of the
products and processes that creates the entire implementation method allowing the
organisation to plan and execute the SAP software. In the implementation of SAP software,
almost every people of the organisation are involved virtually as the end users of the SAP

8ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
software (Maes Van Grembergen and De Haes 2014). The general rationales for which
organisations are implementing SAP within their business system are-
1. To improve the performance of the business.
2. To allow the employees to do their job in a much easier way.
3. To integrate the systems across multiple locations
4. To ensure the reporting system that is analyzing the reports that are generated daily.
5. To replace the old Enterprise resource planning of the system or the legacy system
6. To help in the growth of the organization
7. To serve the customers better and generate better customer satisfaction through the
orders as demanded by them.
8. To standardize the business operation globally
9. To reduce the capital or the cost that is invested in the daily working of the company
(Heinzelmann 2017).
10. To stand out in the global market between various competitors.
While implementing SAP in a steel industry, some checklists needs to be followed which
includes-
1. Company wide integration- This has to be the main criteria that needs to be satisfied
while planning any SAP implementation within the organisation of any steel
company. Integrated ERP software system helps a steel company to have an
integrated and streamlined operation (Mitra Debnath and Sebastian 2014).
2. Multiple planning- The production process of any steel industry undergoes through
various planning strategies which needs to be well addressed before implementing
any SAP ERP system within the organisation (Umar et al. 2016).

9ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
Business rationale for Geneva to undertake SAP implementation: This includes gaining
of pervasive change in the systematic behavior of the business in comparison to the corporate
systems, structures and processes. The main reason for the company to implement SAP in
their business is to reduce the cost by 20% in comparison to the cost that was estimated in the
year 1996 from the Delta project. The main aim of the business of the Geneva Steel plant is
to launch several teams that focused on improving the employee relation, operation and
customer services of the business (Govindaraj and Putra 2016). According to the officials of
the Geneva steel pant this change is vital in order to compete in the current steel market.
Identifying this business rationales, the company finally decided to implement ERP system
within their business process.
Technological rationale of Geneva to undertake SAP implementation: The technological
reason for Geneva to implement SAP in the business is that the implementation of SAP will
help them decrease the application of the prevailing legacy system which is not so much
beneficial from 50% to 90% (Bintoro et al 2015). The prevailing legacy system of the
company did not capture information that is required to allow measurement of each metrices
accurately (Yahya et al. 2018). The requirement of the technological hardware and software
would be less in the implementation of the SAP as it would be fully integrated (Kauppila
Härkönen and Väyrynen 2015). Thus, this will serve the purpose of the company in reducing
the overall cost of the firm. Also, another technological rationale for Geneva is that the
introduction of SAP will help in providing a much more robust and integrated method for
calculating and analyzing the reports that are obtained in a daily basis (Anaya 2014). As the
SAP is an integrated tool hence it will be self-executing and no such extra technological
requirements will be necessary for its implementation. The SAP implementation would
enable information tyo be easily available to the customers both internally and externally
helping the business to know the need of the customers (Pattanayak and 2015). This

10ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
technological reason behind implementing SAP is also that it will help in generating more
strategic information and hence will help in making more improved decision making,
accessing data and increased ability to perform analysis between different groups of data. The
implementation of the SAP in the technological procedure of the company will help in the
integration process where managers will no longer be acting as the integrators of information.
Business process rationale/ reasons for Geneva to undertake SAP
implementation:
Continuous changes were taking place in the company of Geneva steel as it flourishes in the
financial market. After executing the delta project, the executives of the plant felt the urge of
improving their plant operation. On June 1997, Geneva steel company decided to announce a
responsibility of management among the senior executives of the company. They wanted to
implement changes in the business process by focusing on resources which have the potential
of yielding the beneficial improvements to the company (Kabak et al. 2016). The changes
that the company intended to be done in the business process includes change in the
relationship in the company to reflect the commitment of the company to focus on the
implementation of the strategic plan towards introducing SAP in the organization (Khaparde
and Khaparde 2016). So as a measure to it, the staffs of the company were reduced from 155
to 92. Besides these reasons, the business process rationales that Geneva developed from the
Delta project includes the following metrices which includes-
1. On time delivery
2. Fulfillment of the order with accuracy
3. Improving the manufacturing cost per ton
4. Improving the administrative costs per ton

11ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
5. Reducing customer complaints
6. Improving the yield of the manufacturing activity
7. Improving the status of the inventory level and product.
Above all these concerns the main aim of the business process of Geneva steel company
included customer satisfaction (Conteh and Akhtar 2015). Customer satisfaction is a vital
component for every business in order to provide the marketers with a metrics that can be
used in business to measure and improve the business process. For increasing this
metrics, the company felt the urge for implementing customer integration tool in order to
address the necessary changes in the organization behaviors. The customer data
integration tool that the business thought of implementing will hence help in managing
and consolidating the information of the customers across the organisation. This will
benefit the company of Geneva to achieve a single version of truth by acquiring its
customers data.
Advantages and disadvantages of SAP implementation in the culture of Geneva:
The company of Geneva steel implemented its SAP software within their business
system with an expectation that the implementation of SAP will help them in inheriting the
mainframe legacy system. The entire project costed to around $8 to $10 million dollar. The
implementation of the entire AP system completed in the year 1999. Several advantages and
disadvantages are noted by the company after the implementation of the SAP system.
Advantages:
The implementation of ERP is divided into three phases namely discovery phase,
implementation phase and the resulting phase. The implementation of SAP in organisation
process offers the benefits like it increases the competition power of the organization among
various industries in the market (Zare and Ravasan 2014). It is true that implementing ERP

12ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
system in the organisation causes huge expenditure and so some manufacturers cannot afford
its implementation but once it is implemented it will be beneficial to the organisation.
Another benefit of SAP implementation in organisation is that it increases the efficiency of
the business process by reducing the effort of manually entering data (Dzemydiene and
Baltrusaitis 2015). The system of SAP streamlines the business process and thus makes its
easier for the organisation to collect data from any department within the organisation. ERP
implementation also benefits in providing tools that are used for accurate forecasting
(SUHAIMI et al. 2016). As a result of this more realistic and effective data gets forecasted in
the organisation that helps in the future business process (Wang Syaiful and Nurul 2017).
Besides all these advantages, SAP implementation also benefits in having collaboration
between in the organisation, introducing scalability in the business planning, generating
integrated information, saving business costs, helping in streamlined process increasing
efficiency and productivity of the business, offering easy access to the data base system of the
organisation, providing high customer service facility, and introducing flexibility in the
business process.
The SAP system affected almost every aspect of the operation procedure of the company (Lv
Wang and Tang 2014). The company installed new HP computer hardware and modules of
SAP in order to process with the financial accounting, controlling inventory and raw
materials. After the implementation of SAP, the company started performing its final
integrations, validation and testing of other SAP modules as well (Vaaseh 2014). Soon after
the SAP implementation, the company also started implanting other SAP modules including
material management, sales and distribution, planning if production, costing and other
information management systems (Hayen and Holmes 2014). Reports from the company also
showed that the beginning of the SAP implementation resulted in the change of the culture of
the organization (Denic Milic and Spasic 2014). The implementation of the SAP system also

13ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
helped in gaining customer satisfaction from the ability of the company to plan its process
systems. The implementation of the SAP system in the organisation culture also helped in
tightening the relation between the accounting system and the management team of the
company (Denic Milic and Spasic 2014). The SAP implementation also helped in
implementing the module of payroll and human resource within the system of the
organization, creating organizational interfaces in the accounting systems, integrating the
system based information platform, increased the availability of the information and their
proper use and most importantly, the implementation of SAP in the company of Geneva Steel
helped in facilitating new workflow while enabling to capture information for the balanced
set of measures (Ravasan Zare and Bamakan 2018).
Disadvantages of implementing SAP in the business module:
Apart from all the advantages of SAP implementation within the business, there are some
major drawbacks that are present with the implementation of SAP ERP system. SAP ERP
implementation involves a set of complex processes (Rajnoha et al. 2015). As a result, if
which organisation implementing SAP often faces challenges in deploying the ERP system
and to get acquainted with it. The implantation of SAP ERP system needs employees who
have the capability to address the glitches that are found with the process of implementation
of SAP.
Apart from the advantages there are few disadvantages that also emerged with the
implementation of the SAP (YONAS and Tilaye 2015). As the introduction of SAP led to the
change in the culture of the company, there were people in the company itself who were
resistant to the implementation of SAP (Chofreh et al. 2016). Different organisations have
different cultures. Change in the organization’s management is critical while implementing
any ERP system into any business. ERP system brings in new methods and processes for

14ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
easing the employees causing new transition in the business culture. Some of the few
drawbacks that were pointed out with the implementation of SAP included that the
implementation of SAP is very much costly, the method of implementation is very much
difficult. All this disadvantage of SAP led to discontentment among few people in the
company and thus it was difficult to find a mass of people who were supportive towards its
implementation.
Current position of Geneva Steel:
The total earning of Geneva steel reached to about $100 million within its first two tears in
the business. In the year 1989, the shareholders of the company planned to recapitalize the
business by applying new modernizing plans. In the early 2007, the site of Geneva made
headlines in the press of Utah. The owner of Geneva Anderson made an offer to the Real Salt
Lake about the site. The deal included moving the stadiums to the site of Geneva where
Anderson is offering the land of Geneva for free. However, the offer was subsequentially
turned down. Geneva is a huge master planned community located centrally in the valley of
Utah covering about 1,700-acre land. It offers the purpose of residential use, educational
structures and industrial uses. It has the best access in the valley of Utah with adjacent
projects, wide roads and mass transit including both Frontrunner and future light rail. Geneva
offers housing of about 26000 residents creating up to 20000 jobs. The future of the town is
one of a kind experiencing both mountain views and incredible lake sides. The present status
of Geneva offers about 3000 units of completed and under construction projects. It gave rise
to some few restaurants including the Maverik, Great Harvest Bread and many more. The
university of Utah valley expands its campus in the site of Geneva. There are about three
interchanges that are present adjacent to the project, The East lake industrial park is under
construction with current status of 40% built. In the current site of Geneva site various
residential areas of Vineyard’s are booming up from the ashes of Geneva steel. The whole

15ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
swath of land was owned by the Geneva Steel. A whole new town of Vineyard is booming up
in the country of Utah. The roads of Vineyard connector connect to the rest of the country
with enhanced master plan of communities and water edges. The whole area of Utah
comprises of nearly 275 acres of planned residential comprising of homes of all sizes.
Conclusion:
Thus, from the above report it can be concluded that SAP implementation plays a
vital; role in the industry of steel manufacturing. Steel manufacturing industry is witnessing a
rapid growth and thus it is necessary to improve the infrastructure which are in high demand.
With the increasing growth, the steel industries are facing major challenges with the outside
market in order to meet the demand and supply of the steel industry. With this increasing
demand, automation is becoming a common practice that steel industries are taking up to
meet the best practices and technologies for delivering quality products to the customers. One
of the ways of automating the processes in steel industry includes the implementation of ERP
in their business process. The ERP solution caters the very need of any steel industry. Steel
industries are one of the discrete industries in the manufacturing segment which faces
extremely benefit while designing ERP. Geneva Steel Plant was one of the largest and most
significant defense related industries that developed during the world war II. The $200
million steel plant was financed by the federal government in order to meet the demand of the
steel by the military forces and in other industrial uses. The actual construction of the steel
plant was turned over to the steel company of Columbia and the steel corporation of US. The
steel plant opened up in the year 1944 but continued for only two years. From the beginning
the steel company of Geneva had a huge impact on the economy of Utah. But unfortunately,
after more than forty years of its operation the steel plant was shut down due to combination
of several factors which included increased foreign competitors, increase in the labour cost,
change in the corporate policy of USX. All these problems made the officials of the company

16ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEM OF GENEVA STEEL
to implement the idea of SAP in their business organisation. The implementation of SAP led
to the disagreement between various members of the team but it was proven to be beneficial
as the company achieved collaboration between different organisation achieving increased
customer satisfaction.
