    Key Challenges in Mill Products

    EU CBAM & Carbon Compliance

    steel producers face the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), requiring precise carbon intensity reporting per tonne of product exported to EU markets.

    Energy Transition Pressure

    European mills must decarbonize operations — transitioning from BF-BOF to EAF routes, integrating hydrogen-based steelmaking, and managing energy costs amid EU electricity volatility.

    CSRD Sustainability Reporting

    mill products companies face mandatory CSRD sustainability disclosure — requiring integrated ESG data management, carbon footprint tracking, and EU taxonomy alignment within ERP.

    Multi-Country Operations

    Managing steel and mill operations across multiple countries — different VAT regimes, labour laws, and regulatory requirements — demands a unified SAP platform with local compliance.

    Mill Products Transformation Story

    Mill products transformation
    Challenge

    A pan-European flat steel producer with mills in Germany, Belgium, and Poland struggled with manual CBAM carbon reporting, CSRD sustainability gaps, and limited multi-plant production cost visibility.

    Solution

    Kannanware implemented SAP S/4HANA with MES integration, automated CBAM reporting, CSRD sustainability disclosure, and real-time multi-plant cost analytics across all European operations.

    Outcome

    The producer achieved 80% CBAM reporting automation, full CSRD disclosure readiness, 11% yield improvement, and gained real-time multi-plant cost visibility — transforming operational efficiency.
