Sales and Distribution
Matthew Bertino has 25 years of SAP experience in the SAP modules for Sales and Distribution and Variant Configuration. He has completed multiple full project lifecycles in the Distribution, Manufacturing, Staffing, Life Science, Pharmaceutical, Automotive, Hi-tech and FMCG industries. He has also completed projects in the U.S., U.K. and EU including the last three years on a global SAP S/4 HANA project.
His conviction is that it is all about making the system support good business processes and eradicating the bad business process. He says, “A good business process is one that increases customer profit; that is it. No smoke and mirrors like ‘best business practice’ templates. If the system does not meet a good business process for our customers; then I make the system support it with as limited custom code as possible. It is a challenge I enjoy.”
Matthew believes:
The single greatest consultant skill is to be able to disagree without being disagreeable.
The only two reasons projects fail or do not achieve ROI are politics and job security.
SAP is a business process tool, not an IT one.
Matthew founded NB Consulting when he found two other consultants, Rhonda Petrosky and Tess Prudencio, who had the same passions. They share another belief – it is all about the team. Cohesive project teams can even overcome job security and politics. And in the 14 years since NB was founded, the company found two others they enjoyed working with – so much so, they were asked to join as partners: Chip Toland and Vinodh Kumar.
Matthew graduated from Fordham University. He and his family live in England during the winters and are fortunate to spend summers in the Finger Lakes region of New York.
