Global project: SNP and Swisscom enable move to SAP S/4HANA at Bühler

  • Secure conversion of the global ERP system landscape in 30 countries within 18 months
  • System availability guaranteed across different time zones

Heidelberg, Germany, May 24, 2024 – SNP SE, a leading provider of software for digital transformations, automated data migrations and data management in the SAP environment, has successfully migrated the global ERP systems of the Bühler Group to SAP S/4HANA together with the SNP partner Swisscom. Thanks to SNP’s software-based end-to-end methodology, the selective BLUEFIELD approach and the data management platform CrystalBridge, the Swiss manufacturer of machinery for the food and animal feed industry and the high-tech sector achieved a successful go-live within 18 months with only a short downtime. The global technology group’s migration project with a data volume of 4 terabytes was implemented in 30 countries and involved over 8,000 users.

Many of Bühler’s production facilities are located in China, which required precise planning in order to ensure system availability in the various time zones. Extensive test migrations and the automation of time-consuming transformation tasks were decisive for the successful conversion, minimizing business interruptions and the required amount of resources. SNP’s selective data migration approach focusing on transferring only relevant data from different systems, ensured that the project was implemented quickly and securely. The conversion took place over a long weekend. As early as Sunday evening, 1,000 users in China were able to access the new system.

Following the modernization, the Bühler Group operates a state-of-the-art SAP system that speeds up data processing and drives innovation.

“Thanks to SNP’s software and expertise, we successfully migrated to the current SAP product generation – despite increased project complexity and potential complications,” says Vidor Kapy, Chief Information Officer of Bühler AG. “With SNP at our side, we successfully completed an agile and innovative migration to the world of S/4HANA.”

Oliver Schwede, General Manager Central Europe, SNP, adds: “The project with Bühler is a prime example of how the move to SAP S/4HANA can be implemented quickly and with low risk. The collaboration with Swisscom for its part shows how innovation and efficiency go hand in hand in a functioning ecosystem – in this case a key enabler for creating a future-proof business in the long term.”
