The integration of the purchased plant into the IT system landscape of the dalli plants encompassed several aspects at once: among other things, complete SAP integration with simultaneous harmonisation of data, the integration of production subsystems and the development of the complete facility infrastructure.
The particular challenge of the deal, however, was a complex and long-term supply contract with the previous owner of the plant - this contract included an uninterrupted supply relationship characterised by stringent quality and delivery figures.
The project also represented a particular challenge because direct access to the seller’s SAP system was not possible for reasons of competitiveness. A partly automated transformation using SAP Landscape Transformation or SAP Object Transformation was therefore impossible.
The carve-in into the new SAP system environment was therefore carried out using an alternative multi-stage migration process. The GAMBIT experts considered modified processes with the new external logistics service provider as well as the integration of process-critical non-SAP peripheral systems.
