Main project goals Creation of a global ERP template Replace 16 different ERP systems Standardized rollout and implementation approach Global networking of all processes and locations Solution: ERP template A global SAP ERP system was implemented, which was tailored to the requirements of the corporate group. With the system, resources can be used globally that are integrated into the logistical and financial processes of the company. The SAP Document Management System, which allows central access to engineering documents and technical documentation, is one of the systems used. The documents, which are a particularly important basis for plant construction, are also integrated into the operative processes. The processes in the areas of purchasing, accounting and controlling have been harmonized.
