Global Agro-Industrial Organization and Processor
Upgraded JD Edwards ERP across plants in three countries
Transforming ERP for global agro-industry operations
What we did
A leading agro-industrial processor needed to replace legacy JD Edwards Xe and integrate acquisitions. NoblQ upgraded to EnterpriseOne, standardized agro modules, and unified processes across the U.S., Netherlands, and U.K.—improving transparency, scalability, and planning while eliminating costly customizations and reducing support overhead.
Executive Summary
Legacy JD Edwards Xe with heavy customizations blocked acquisitions, slowed reporting, limited scalability across multi-country agro operations.
Upgraded to EnterpriseOne, replaced custom code with standard agro modules, and unified finance, grower, and supply processes globally.
Enabled acquisitions integration, reduced ERP support costs, improved planning and transparency across $93B global operations with 44,000 employees.

Global Agro-Industrial Organization and Processor
A global agro-industrial processor and food ingredients provider operating plants and supply chains across the U.S., Europe, and worldwide.
The company manages agricultural processing and food ingredient operations at global scale. Legacy JD Edwards Xe was heavily customized, costly to maintain, and hindered integrations, making acquisitions slow and risky. Standardization was essential for sustainable growth and operational resilience.

Legacy ERP blocked growth and slowed acquisitions
Outdated JD Edwards Xe required costly maintenance and specialized support.
Heavy customizations prevented upgrades and limited standard agro functionality adoption.
Multiple ERP systems ran separately across U.S., Netherlands, and U.K. plants.
“Standardizing ERP reduced complexity and prepared us for acquisitions. Transparency improved across operations, planning accelerated, and our integration costs dropped significantly.”
