Company information
Aditya Birla Chemicals
Revamping the Customer Experience: Transparent Transformation
Journey with Implementation of SAP C/4HANA
Challenge
Aditya Birla Chemicals has plants across three countries. The firm did not have customer engagement
software. The presales process was performed by e-mail, and the database was maintained in Microsoft
Excel. The sales team had to coordinate with the back-end team manually, which, in turn, entered data in
the ERP system manually. If any data was required at a global level, the teams had to coordinate
manually and consolidate it.
Solution
The SAP C/4HANA suite was implemented to integrate the presales process with the ERP system in real
time and to consolidate data from three plants. Features such as potential mapping, budgeting, and
forecasting were added to facilitate inventory planning and minimize costs.
Outcome
SAP C/4HANA enabled real-time integration of the presales process with the SAP ERP application. The
business can analyze consolidated data from the system at multiple levels for all three plants, eliminating
manual coordination and significantly reducing the chance of error. Products under R&D can be tracked
centrally through SAP C/4HANA. The costs incurred and the return on investment achieved from sample
products can be estimated more accurately.

“The PricewaterhouseCoopers team has very rich SAP expertise and is
able to offer meaningful solutions to its customers. The team that
worked for Grasim industries consisted of:
• Two functional consultants, who smoothly converted business
requirements into a technology solution
• A developer or technical consultant who leveraged the input provided
by the functional consultant to customize the system
• A program manager who managed the entire exercise and provided
support whenever there was a challenge
The PwC team left no stone unturned to understand our business
process comprehensively and then combined this understanding with
its market knowledge to suggest a solution that met our needs.
I have to agree that the SAP C/4HANA implementation has helped us
change the nature of customer engagement and increase profits.”

American Airlines, Inc.
Project Spring: Transforming the New American Airlines to a People-First
Culture
Enter solutions
Challenge
After the merger of American Airlines and US Airways, the company knew that a “people-first” culture
would be critical to its success and affect every business outcome. The new American Airlines faced the
challenge of migrating employee bases across 60 different countries from multiple on-premise systems to
one best-of-breed, future-proof cloud platform that would deliver the unified, consistent, caring, and
trusted workforce experience of the future.
Solution
American Airlines chose SAP SuccessFactors solutions and SAP Cloud Platform because of their
mature global and local capabilities, quarterly modernization, and future-proof capabilities, extensibility of
the solution, best-in-class workforce experience, and a long and trusted partnership with SAP going back
to the late 1990s.
Outcome
The project went live in March 2018 and included 335,000 total employee records (current and retired),
60 different countries and over 150 unique interfaces. The benefits for and impact on the workforce were
felt immediately. The best-in-class features, future-proof capabilities, and foundation on which the
company can innovate and integrate allow the new American Airlines to become both an innovator and a
global leader for empowering a world-class, people-first culture.

Asociacion de Cooperativas
Argentinas C.L.
Sustainable Agriculture with Location Intelligence
Enter solutions
Challenge
Asociacion de Cooperativas Argentinas has 50,000 producers that make up a fundamental part of the
agro-industrial Argentinean chain. It wanted a simple and intelligent way to monitor each stage of the
farming campaigns in the fields, from seeding to harvesting on a large scale. Consuming satellite imagery
on its own was challenging and did not provide visibility into the health of the crops and fields. The lack of
insights lead to increased costs while creating negative affects on socioeconomics and environments in
Argentina.
Solution
An intelligent spatial platform was built by combining SAP Cloud Platform, SAP HANA spatial services,
and SAP Leonardo Machine Learning Foundation. This innovative system provides insights from the
fields using satellite and drone imagery, weather data, and machine learning. Combined with business
data from Asociacion de Cooperativas Argentinas, the insights provide daily end-to-end monitoring of
crops to determine anomalous areas to inspect for feasible pests and diseases.
Outcome
• Sustainable farming

“It was a project unprecedented in its approach and its global scale and scope for Bayer and the market. TCS brought in the required industry
thought leadership, full services capability, and a can-do approach to
ensure that we delivered a modern, optimal, and fully functional administrative backbone on time. The integrated team of Bayer and TCS
made this project a real success. It allows Bayer to fully focus on our own
priorities, first and foremost the integration of Monsanto.”
‒ Head of Business Services and CIO
Bayer AG
Enabling Creation of a Global Leader in Agriculture
Enter solutions
Challenge
• Bayer AG acquired The Monsanto Company in 2016, creating a global leader committed to
transforming agriculture. To close the deal, Bayer required approvals of local antitrust and regulatory
bodies in over 30 countries. To remain compliant and preserve competition, divestitures of selective
business segments (crop protection and seeds) were required. Bayer needed an effective way to
package divested business entities as stand-alone operating entities to prospective buyers.
Solution
• Setup of standard, comprehensive business processes and IT infrastructure for three different divested
entities on public and private clouds
• ERP landscape hosted on private cloud (TCS) for SAP Business Suite on SAP HANA (~2,000 users
and for HR solutions for SAP SuccessFactors solutions (3,700 users in 43 countries)
Outcome
• Risk-averse and non-invasive IT infrastructure with no disruption to the retained business running on
Bayer’s IT landscape
• Industrialized divestiture factory for rapid carve-out and spin-offs
• Business-ready and fully operational setup on the first day, with IT and business-support backbone

Capgemini SE
Intelligent Shipping Supported by SAP Leonardo
Enter solutions
Challenge
In the consumer product segment, supply chain planners process a huge number of deliveries manually and
assign them to various containers based on availability and the conditions of carriage to meet the delivery
expectations of customers. Lack of real-time visibility into the container location and status often results in
containers loaded under capacity or deliveries delayed beyond customer expectations without any ETA.
Solution
Intelligent shipping uses a UI5-based application that invokes a python algorithm that automatically allocates
the open deliveries from SAP S/4HANA to available containers based on Internet of Things data in SAP Cloud
Platform and a dashboard based on SAP Analytics Cloud. It enables real-time tracking of containers and
shipments by exceptions, delays, and KPIs.
Outcome

Christchurch City Council
Revolutionizing Citizen Engagement for Christchurch City Council
Enter solutions
Challenge
Christchurch City Council needed to improve the quality of the interactions and outcomes citizens were
experiencing when seeking Council assistance. The challenge was to improve the overall user
experience, reduce complexity, and automate the manual processes that governed the workflow around
providing feedback, receiving requests, issuing work orders, and dispatching field-service teams.
Solution
Leveraging the cloud and SAP Customer Experience solutions, a new digital interface and request
management platform was introduced, allowing citizens to engage with the Council easily and quickly,
and for the Council to act on these interactions through simplified, end-to-end digitalized processes.
Outcome
This solution has enabled Christchurch City Council to transform the way it delivers 46 public services. It
now offers a tailored, omnichannel experience for its 380,000 citizens, which has modernized everyday
interactions, reduced barriers for citizens accessing services, and provides choice in how citizens chose
to interact.

Enter solutions
Challenge
Although Citco’s reconciliation process can match 92% of transactions through its rules-based system,
the remaining 8% required 1,000 people to match manually to meet their service-level agreements. The
challenge was to reduce the amount of manual matching for this mission-critical business process.
Solution
Machine learning models created with SAP HANA automated manual matching with significantly high
confidence and are now part of the process that runs every day with Amazon Web Services (AWS). The
SAP HANA software is supported by high-availability and disaster-recovery environments across AWS
zones.
Outcome
Citco is in production and has already significantly reduced the amount of manual matching. It is now
automatically matching 30,000 items per day and anticipates that this number will grow to 90% of all

Cityzens Giving
Challenge
For the past three years, SAP has supported the City Football Group’s Cityzens Giving projects in Manchester and
New York, specifically focused on female empowerment and social inclusion. Throughout the partnership, City and
SAP have strived to find solutions from the boardroom to the pitch. They are now extending this work to track and
quantify the positive life-changing impact of football more efficiently and share learning across community football
projects to improve the effects on young people around the world.
Solution
City Football Group (CFG) and SAP teamed up to create the foundation of the Intelligent Enterprise with SAP Cloud
Platform, building a comprehensive solution that enables CFG’s global foundation to capture social impact data
through digital surveys and provides real-time insights powered by SAP Analytics Cloud. By introducing a
standardized reporting process and applying intelligent technologies such as SAP Leonardo and SAP Analytics, we
were able to transform three years of unstructured and decentralized data to create a smooth digital experience.
Outcome
Using next-generation social impact analytics, including machine learning capabilities like search to insights, CFG
now understands how football is changing lives across all of its charity programs – whether in health and wellbeing,
safer communities, leadership and life skills, inclusion, employment, or education. By understanding the success of
each initiative around the globe (the impact in relation to budget spent, for example), CFG can adjust its program
strategy as needed.

“Imagine that we currently have around 20 million individual
decisions in our team throughout Switzerland based on plans for
promotional goods. We will be able to reduce these to fewer than 8
million decisions. This of course means an enormous gain in time for
our employees in the stores! In addition, we can reduce residual
quantities – and thus waste – and offer customers exactly the good
they actually require in the respective store.”
– Head of Master Data Management and Marketing Process
Coop Cooperative
Enter solutions
Challenge
Coop has a heavily promotion-driven business in all product categories (>60,000 products). Determining
the correct quantity is extremely difficult because promotional items are often not standard items within a
regular assortment. The risk is that inaccurate planning can lead to overstocking (more waste) or lost
sales.
Solution
• The SAP Customer Activity Repository, unified demand forecast component uses historical sales data
(per store and product) to determine the exact promotion quantities.
• To improve on-site process control in each store, the quality and the probability of the forecast itself is
defined by an additional, self-learning AI algorithm in real time.
Outcome
• Goods distributed intelligently and accordingly to demand according to the individual history of stores,
not according to a static distribution key
• Increased sales while drastically reducing overstocking and increasing conversation among resources
in alignment with Coop’s sustainable concept
• Considerable reduction in effort at stores thanks to the AI solution

“De Watergroep adapted its organization to meet its customers’
needs even better and more flexibly. That’s why digitalization is high
on our list of strategic and business ambitions.
The best way to tackle NRW is to combine good asset management
and replacement strategy with an innovative approach . . . and that
was the core mission for this project.
Our teams need to have access to the right data at the right time,
especially when it comes to NRW. Reliable data helps our people to
make better informed decisions.
And that’s exactly how they can make the difference for our
customers too.”

De Watergroep N.V.How Water Leakage Reporting and Detection at De Watergroep
Has Become Child’s Play
Enter solutions
Challenge
Non-revenue water (NRW) is clean, treated drinking water that is lost before it reaches the customer.
In Belgium, 20% of the water distributed by De Watergroep will never be invoiced (the European average
is 23%), which is a substantial loss. With public and political pressure on NRW rising, De Watergroep
sought a more practical, far-reaching solution. That’s how the reduction of NRW became a prime focus
and part of its strategic goals.
Solution
With 34,000 kilometers of pipes, most of which are about 100 years old, it was time for a new approach.
Instead of using tools and shovels, it was better to have digital tools help the leak-detection team. Team
personnel now rely on the newest SAP technologies, ranging from SAP HANA, express edition and the
integration of R for use of SAP Leonardo. Reporting has changed dramatically as well. Instead of going
through endless rows in Microsoft Excel, reporting is now shown in a digital board reporting mode, using
SAP Analytics Cloud and SAP Digital Boardroom. This approach helps the team discover insights instead
of data and management to make better-informed decisions.
Outcome
The leak-reporting team now works differently. Instead of working based on job descriptions, its members
put processes at the heart of everything they do. They also work centrally instead of regionally and can
count on reliable sets of data, allowing them to discover insights instead of data. Reporting on NRW has
become less complex and does not require specific skills. The workload has been reduced along with the
risk of making manual errors. In short, data has been turned into insights.

Challenge
GEBHARDT’s customers depend significantly on a functioning intralogistics solution. In the connected
world of intralogistics, unexpected downtime because of required maintenance or system failures
immediately translates into delayed production and possibly even losses in revenue. To ensure smooth

over its plant’s condition to identify and replace faulty parts as soon as possible.
Solution
The modular solution, Galileo IoT, combines all data from a plant’s machines and sensors and provides
real-time condition monitoring of all components in a centralized cockpit based on SAP Leonardo.
GEBHARDT’s integrated customer portal serves as a central digital point of contact for customers,
providing details on each component. Complemented by a digital twin of the plant, predictive
maintenance scenarios, and holographic maintenance animations, every plant can be turned into a smart
factory.
Outcome
Fully digitized and connected components offer unparalleled transparency and control, enabling
customers to avoid failures, plan maintenance better, and save costs. By aligning their services
throughout the entire product lifecycle to the customer journey, GEBHARDT deepened customer
relationships, changed its role from that of a supplier to a comprehensive service provider for
intralogistics, and unlocked new revenue streams.

Mann & Schröder GmbH
Driving Growth with Comprehensive Process Transparency and Efficiency
Enter solutions
Challenge
Mann & Schröder had an IT landscape that was not primed for future growth. Its separate legacy systems – an operative ERP and a financials and controlling system – were not integrated with one another and required an upgrade. Simply updating the systems would not have served Mann & Schröder’s ambitious goals, which only an integrated solution could deliver.
Solution
In just 14 months, using an agile approach, Mann & Schröder replaced its legacy systems with an integrated solution based on SAP S/4HANA, which significantly simplified the data landscape. By utilizing the new system’s functionalities, ranging from product development over quality management to distribution, complemented by the SAP Analytics portfolio and a sales planning solution based on the SAP Business Planning and Consolidation application with an embedded business warehouse, Mann & Schröder can now map all its processes from end to end.
Outcome
First, many previously manual processes are now automated. Second, users are empowered by user-friendly interfaces accessible from their mobile devices, which are employed in production and logistic processes. Moreover, executives use their tablet computers to extract data from SAP Analytics, greatly facilitating data-driven decision making. Lastly, Mann & Schröder now possesses a scalable IT landscape to expand into new industries and markets.

Smart Welding – Predicting the Quality of

Enter solutions
Challenge
The core business of Martur Fompak International is to design and manufacture vehicle cockpit components such as
complete seating, seat frames with a welding process, dashboards, door panels, and so on with excellent quality.
Focusing on frame welding, we aim to create a reliable and stable manufacturing process with a higher quality level
and competitive cost. An average of 60 welding points vary from product to product. To fulfill product safety and
quality requirements, continuous parametric control is performed throughout the arc welding process. Welding
penetration, by its nature, is controlled frequently with destructive tests, resulting in a high scrap rate, consumable
expense, and energy and labor costs.
Solution
A customer gateway software collects 80 million data points that affect the cost and quality of the frame from about 2
million welding points per day by communicating with sensors, robots, welding machines, and programmable logic
controller. Data streaming at intervals of 100 ms, such as current, voltage, wire speed, process status, product,
welding point, temperature, gas electricity, air, and error code of the robot are analyzed instantly with the SAP
Streaming Analytics service and transferred to the SAP HANA platform, the SAP ERP application, and Supervisory
Control and Data Acquisition, or SCADA, with a timestamp. By using the collected data, some indictors can be
calculated and reported for each welding point on the SAP Business Warehouse application and SAP
BusinessObjects business intelligence solutions. Poor quality and breakdown conditions are detected through the
instrument of predictive analytics algorithms of SAP HANA.
Outcome
Analysis of streaming data based on each welding point has already resulted in significantly lower rejection rates,
consumables cost, energy usage, and labor costs thanks to increased production process visibility and improved
predictive quality analytics. This system also provided a shorter maintenance period through strict parametric robotic
error codes, lower spare part costs, and improved value- and non-value-added operation times in a welding cycle
related to a welding robot.

Challenge
Risk management depends on accurate, quickly accessible, and up-to-date data. Since the data required
for geospatial analysis was both dispersed over different sources and inherently complex, it proved
especially difficult for Munich Re to process large amounts of data and present it to its clients. To cater to
clients with diverse requirements from all around the world, Munich Re also required more flexible and

Challenge
Railroad logistics is a crucial sector for the economy of Kazakhstan and for partners in Asia and Europe,
transferring cargo across the ninth-largest country in the world. However, planning processes across all
departments in the railroad remained mostly manual, taking up to 260 days and involving more than
2,000. Because of a lack of technology to assist with huge amounts of cargo and freight data, the
company struggled to make timely investment and managerial decisions, fully capture market potential,
respond to market changes, and have a reliable tool to align the shareholder’s expectations with the
company’s resources.
Solution
The Integrated Planning System (IPS) is designed to encompass the entire planning lifecycle, covering
demand and revenue forecasts, loaded and empty wagon traffic management, traffic route optimization,
and calculation of associated operational financial metrics on one user-friendly portal. This approach
gives business users instant access to data, conduct predictive scenario analysis, and identify investment
opportunities along the separate streams of cargo traffic. In addition, the tool assists in building
communication with shareholders by aligning KPI expectations with the company’s ability to meet them.
Outcome
Currently, three of five modules of the product (demand forecasting, wagon traffic forecasting, and
revenue calculation) are in active use. The results of the system functionality test have provided ground to
invest further in the IPS project and continue to design the optimization module with financial model
integration.

Newcrest Mining Limited
SAP Mobile Solutions Drive Productivity and Safety Improvements
Enter solutions
Challenge
Newcrest has a significant field workforce that supports key operational activities at our mining sites. The business
gave Group IT and digital the challenge to minimize the time our field workforce spends on the desktop completing
various administrative tasks and freeing them to spend maximum time in the field. They needed simple, intuitive
mobile solutions to access the data and functionality they need while out in the field and to improve safety and
productivity at our sites.
Solution
A suite of applications enabled for mobility was designed, developed, and deployed on SAP Cloud Platform to
regional mining sites, including Cadia and Telfer (two of our main mines). A user-centric design approach using
SAPUI5 was used to create an intuitive, functional, and user-friendly mobile application. Innovative technologies like
machine learning and offline capabilities provide access to data and information in the field to technicians to improve
the safety and productivity of both personnel and mining sites.
Outcome
By harnessing the innovative use of mobile-related applications on SAP Cloud Platform, the team has delivered real
business outcomes to our sites improving safety, productivity, and free cash flow, as evidenced by four initiatives:
the Telfer Shutdown “MyTelfer” application, the Simple Maintenance “Fix This” application, EasySAP delivering
employee and manager self-service solutions, and warehouse management applications enabled for mobility.

Proximus Group
Smart Reel Project – Solving a Longstanding Challenge in Logistics
Operations with IoT Technology
Enter solutions
Challenge
A modern infrastructure that connects everyone and everything requires smart logistics. But for many
years, Proximus, Belgium’s largest information and communications technology provider, was struggling
with a lack of visibility into one of its major company assets, namely copper and fiber reels, which are used
to build and modernize its extensive network infrastructure. After reels had been shipped to contractors and
subcontractors at more than 7,000 sites, the logistics department lacked knowledge of their exact location
and material consumption levels, resulting in inefficiencies, late returns of reels, and project delays.
Solution
Jointly with SAP and Ordina, Proximus developed a custom sensor-based smart reel application that is
used by its central logistics department to track cable reels from warehouse to installation site. The sensor
technology solution, LoRa, to connect the reels is provided by Proximus itself, and SAP Leonardo
technologies are used to collect and process the data for visualization using the SAP Fiori user experience
and for integration with back-end systems to document material status and consumption levels correctly. In
the pilot phase, 450 copper reels (out of 1,000) were equipped with Internet of Things (IoT) sensors to
determine their exact position.
Outcome
The deployment of the pilot has already resulted in significantly lower stock levels and material costs due
to increased stock visibility, improved forecasts, and lower order volumes. Rolling out the solution to cover
all copper and fiber reels as well as enhancements to capture additional parameters, such as rotation,
temperature, and shock detection, will lead to even larger savings and fewer projects delays.

need to reduce our unit costs led us to investigate systems and find a partner to achieve our strategic
goals.
Solution
Royal Swaziland Sugar implemented SAP Business Suite on SAP HANA together with the SAP Farm
Management application by Vistex. This approach allowed us to plan and execute our sugar cane
growing and the production of sugar in a single integrated system. On top of the implementation, we
utilize the SAP Leonardo approach to gather data across the farm, including rainfall, river flows, water
consumption, vehicle insights, and vehicle positioning. We now have a single view of our operations.
Outcome

Sasol Limited
Business-to-Business Empowerment Through Sasol Self-Service
Challenge
Several constraints in Sasol’s sales and marketing process had led to Sasol attaining a low net promoter
index (NPI) for customer loyalty and service. This situation was prohibiting expansion of Sasol’s business
into global markets. One area of particular concern was a lengthy and tedious ordering process that was
based exclusively on a call center and was very manual. Sasol needed to improve its NPI score and
reduce the cost to serve for its Chemicals and Energy business units. Sasol also needed to integrate
several back ends in SAP software.
Solution
The solution consisted of two online business-to-business ordering portals for Sasol’s Chemicals and
Energy businesses, both of which were designed in collaboration with Sasol’s customers. The user
interface was based on SAPUI5, which was customized to align closely with Sasol brand and identity.
Both portals were built on SAP Cloud Platform (CP) to offer smooth integration between the portal and
the back ends securely. The project was managed using Sasol’s Agile methodology to deliver incremental
value to customers.
Outcome
After deployment of the online portal in June 2018, it has been scaled to over 900 Sasol users, and
successfully integrated with two back-end systems across 2 countries. This omnichannel solution has
aided Sasol business users and end customers alike. It has streamlined business processes, reducing
the time and cost of placing an order. Customers are also pleased with a digital solution that speaks to
their needs, so that Sasol’s NPI has improved.

Challenge
The State of Arkansas is experiencing the fastest-growing prison population rate in the country, causing a
dramatic increase in state spending, economic loss, and overburdened state agencies. In 2017, Act 423
legislation was passed by the State, setting a goal to reduce the projected growth in the prison population
by 10% (1,650 fewer people) by FY2023 to avert $288.5 million in prison construction costs.
Solution
SAP and the State of Arkansas collaboratively engaged in an SAP Design Thinking workshop, which led
to a co-innovation proof of concept (POC) utilizing SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud, SAP Predictive Analytics
software, machine learning, and SAP Analytics Cloud to prove real-time analysis of recidivism risk,
influencing behaviors, and guidance on programmatic interventions. This approach provides the State
with the ability to make data-driven, insightful decisions on policies to mitigate these behaviors better and
reduce recidivism.
Outcome
The real-time, dynamic predictive model generates program or intervention recommendations to help
prepare offenders for rehabilitation into society, which ultimately leads to reduced recidivism. Before the
POC, these outputs were impossible in the State due to siloed processes; dated infrastructure and
applications; historically-focused, time-consuming analysis; and lack of executed data sharing.

Swiss Post Ltd.
Transforming the World’s Leading Postal Organization
Enter solutions
Challenge
Decreasing letter volumes, increasing competition in the parcel market, and low interest rates have
resulted in decreased income and margins. At the same time, customers (business-to-business and
business-to-consumer) expect personalized and flexible physical and digital solutions around the clock.
The underlying legacy system landscape made the situation even more challenging. Some 11
decentralized ERP and 9 business data warehouses, separated by Swiss Post Divisions with
decentralized core processes and master data, result in lack of real-time transparency and high cost in
the consolidation of financial, customer, and supplier data.
Solution
To compete in this challenging market, Swiss Post is undergoing an overall digital transformation to
become an intelligent enterprise. Its core processes and data are being redefined and centralized into one
digital core. The system landscape is being dramatically reduced to one instance of SAP S/4HANA and
one of the SAP Business Warehouse application. It is moving procurement and HR into the cloud with
SAP Ariba and SAP SuccessFactors solutions and introducing central master data governance based on
the SAP Master Data Governance application. To drive new cross-divisional opportunities, Swiss Post is
using SAP Cloud Platform as its innovation platform. The overall organization is becoming agile with
innovation projects supported by the Focused Build for SAP Solution Manager solution.
Outcome
The centralized foundation results in real-time transparency of Swiss Post Group’s relationships with its
business partners. Standardized processes and data make the group run more efficiently and effectively.
It has achieved one single source of truth thanks to centralized governance of master data for business
partner and products and services, changing the group into a data-driven organization. The ability to run

Swisscom AG
OneBI – Enabling the Intelligent Enterprise with a Modern
Data and Analytics Platform
Enter solutions
Challenge
Through a merger, Swisscom inherited a second, 15-year-old data warehouse (DW) with complicated architectures.
To support integrated financial closing, it needed to be merged with Swisscom’s own IT landscape consisting of SAP
and non-SAP DWs while consolidating the ERP instances on SAP ERP on SAP HANA. Because of this situation and
other shortcomings, Swisscom set out to completely transform its enterprise-wide DW landscape into a
contemporary data and analytical platform supporting intelligent processes, a state-of-the-art user experience, and
simpler IT operations.
Solution
Four years ago, Swisscom formed a project called OneBI. After creating a governance framework and reviewing
more than 250 existing use cases, it consolidated three DWs into one DW running the SAP Business Warehouse
(SAP BW) application on SAP HANA with mixed modeling and real-time data provisioning in a Big Bang approach. In
a second step, Swisscom successfully completed the world’s-first conversion from SAP BW to SAP BW/4HANA – all
while ensuring regulatory compliance for data access and interfaces. In parallel, Swisscom went live with its first
predictive use cases using SAP Predictive Analytics. Apart from deploying additional predictive use cases, Swisscom
has started to connect these cases with SAP Analytics Cloud.
Outcome
With its OneBI data warehouse, Swisscom now has one single source of truth for financial data that is fully integrated
with its operational systems and Big Data platform. It greatly facilitates reporting, including faster financial closing.
Real-time insights on integrated data sets are provided in a variety of ways – from self-service business intelligence
through dashboards to automated process optimization based on predictive insights – enabling the business to serve
customers better and take advantage of business opportunities while IT benefits from simpler operations and cost
efficiencies.

myJeffHub: Reimagining Employee Engagement
with a Social Community Collaboration Model
Challenge
Our nation’s healthcare delivery system is highly segmented, and yet the industry is increasingly merging
into regional and national systems. Former competitors, now aligned, have to create new cultures and
join together to fix long-standing challenges. Care delivery remains complex, learning and teamwork are
now seen as necessities, and we must engage younger and more diverse employees. Merged health
systems must stitch their organizations together amid all this complexity.
Solution
Our solution uses the SAP Jam collaboration platform as a front end to an employee portal of our
creation. SAP Jam allows us to link to other software, including SAP SuccessFactors solutions, which we
use to deliver performance and learning tools. It allows us to orchestrate communities (groups) to
disseminate information in logical constructs (HR benefits for example). It also allows employees at many
levels to interact on business matters using tools and a design to make the portal engaging and easy to
navigate.
Outcome
The result was the creation within an organization of a talent ecosystem built on the tenets of connect,
learn, and grow. We use technology to create a singular internal messaging too, and deliver learning and
needed HR tools. The capabilities allow orderly and engaging dissemination of culture topics and other
organizational priorities, accessible and embraced HR practices, a development-oriented learning
system, and more.

IT: SAP software replaced a

Universidad de Talca – Chile
Transforming Higher Education in Latin America
Enter solutions
Challenge
The university had not kept pace with the advances and best practices taking place in businesses around
the world. Employees worked in silos on tasks, management was bureaucratic, paperwork was prevalent,
and IT investments were disparate and antiquated, based on internal developments. Culturally,
employees didn’t have the information they needed to be effective, make decisions, or improve.
Solution
We chose SAP software because we needed an integrated system that would grow with the university,
could take advantage of best practices around the world, and was future-proof. We implemented
SAP S/4HANA and the SAP Business Planning and Consolidation application to automate the back
office, finance, and purchasing. We also implemented the SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central,
SAP SuccessFactors Learning, SAP SuccessFactors Recruitment, and SAP SuccessFactors
Performance & Goals solutions along with the SAP Jam collaboration platform.
Outcome
The culture of the university is being completely transformed. Transformation has taken place in all our
back-office processes, HR performance management, and more. Other universities have taken notice,
and at least five are already following our lead.

Challenge
Verizon ($124 billion) has historically been defined by a series of acquisitions with multiple ERP solutions.
In 2018, Verizon promised $10 billion in shareholder value over the next several years. Key to achieving
this is harnessing the power of a single digital platform across the enterprise, supported by
SAP S/4HANA.
Solution
SAP S/4 HANA (greenfield) was implemented for a business unit as a finance-first cornerstone of the
transformation journey that includes general ledger; fixed assets subledger; and accounts payable and
accounts receivable reporting at the level of the general ledger. In parallel, the corporate central finance
foundation was taken live, centralizing the general ledger across six ERP systems.
Outcome
• One robust system to complete the full financial close, including booking of all journal entries
• Ability to generate both consolidated and legal entity reporting (balance sheet and P&L) out of
SAP S/4HANA
• Implementation of global standards for chart of accounts and rationalized general ledger accounts

Real-Time Business Intelligence for Topgolf
Enter solutions
Challenge
Topgolf Australia (as a Village Roadshow joint venture) was building a new $35 million, three-level
entertainment venue on the Gold Coast. The project team had a preselected analytics solution, but it
could not incorporate all the Australian-specific requirements. A different analytics solution was required
just prior to the launch of the venue. Without a solution, we wouldn’t be able to launch, risking a loss of
approximately $77,000 per day.
Solution
The Topgolf entertainment venue operates using real-time and near-real-time business intelligence and
analytics. We chose SAP software because of its speed and being the only solution comprehensive
enough to deal with the complexity of the project. It also happened to be the lowest cost. The solution
included SAP HANA, SAP Analytics Cloud, the SAP Business Warehouse application, and SAP Business
Objects business intelligence solutions.
Outcome
The project went live in June 2018, in only three weeks from the start date. A 360-degree view of
