The Challenge

Disjointed data, knowledge, and systems.

• Publishers worked in disparate systems, so could not easily set KPIs or track progress to compare editor performance

• Publishers did not have a central knowledge base, hindering collaboration and productivity 

• Tracking relationships and engagements with editors was manual, leading to errors and lack of visibility

• Data capture was labour intensive, leading to incorrect data and inability to draw insights from data

The Solution

A modernized cloud platform that aligns with business goals.

Through our partnership, we supported Elsevier by:  

• Implementing Salesforce Sales Cloud, tailoring it for their needs 

• Retiring Elsevier’s legacy systems 

• Connecting the Editor Relationship Management Solution to underlying Elsevier Data Management hubs 

The Results

Better alignment, connected data, increased productivity.

As a result of our project, Elsevier experienced the following: 

• Elsevier's editor data is now aligned across the business so can be shared and consumed seamlessly 

• With connected data, Elsevier can drive even more quality and insights 

• Automated administrative processes have increased operational efficiency 

• By replacing multiple legacy systems with one off-the-shelf solution, Elsevier has increased productivity and saved money 

We chose to partner with Credera because of their honesty and experience. Every project we’ve done with Credera has gone smoothly.
