Business challenges

Our customer was searching for scalable technological solutions to address operational challenges in managing a vast network of over 200 fitness clubs. The primary issues included the absence of suitable turnkey technologies and the necessity for extensive customization to support a new subscription billing model. This aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and boosting member engagement. The challenges were:

1

The fitness industry lacks scalable, turnkey solutions, creating inefficiencies in serviced delivery and member experience.

2

Extensive customization of technology solutions drives up costs and complicates operations across multiple locations.

3

Inconsistent integration of technology across different club sizes leads to disparities in member experience, impacting member satisfaction and retention rates for large-scale operators.

4

Advanced tools like SAP Data Sphere and SAP Analytics Cloud were not being fully utilized due to integration and adoption challenges.
