STÖBER Antriebstechnik sought to strategically evolve its existing ERP landscape and lay a solid foundation for the implementation of SAP S/4HANA.
Systems that had evolved over the years, customizations, and heterogeneous process structures led to increasing complexity. This made it difficult to harmonize processes and further develop the IT landscape in an international context.
At the same time, demands for transparency, integration, and efficiency were increasing—particularly in the interaction between different locations, business units, and system environments. Against this backdrop, the central task was to create a sound basis for decision-making regarding the future transformation.
Preliminary Roadmap Study for the Migration from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA
GAMBIT supported STÖBER as part of a comprehensive preliminary roadmap program (preliminary study for SAP S/4HANA). The goal was to conduct a structured analysis of the existing system landscape and systematically evaluate potential transformation options.
A key component was a series of strategic interviews with management and key functional departments. These provided insights into current challenges, organizational conditions, and future requirements for the target system landscape.
Based on this, various transformation approaches were developed and compared. Particular focus was placed on comparing a brownfield approach—which is based on a technical conversion of the existing systems—with a greenfield approach, which involves a new implementation of SAP S/4HANA.
The evaluation was conducted based on clearly defined criteria. In addition to technological considerations, the assessment also took into account the impact on business processes, organizational changes, risks, and economic factors. This comprehensive analysis provided a transparent overview of the various options.
It became apparent that a purely technical approach would largely perpetuate existing complexities. A greenfield approach, on the other hand, offers better conditions for standardizing and harmonizing processes, as well as for leveraging SAP best practices.
Based on these findings, GAMBIT developed a clear recommendation and a structured roadmap for the ongoing transformation. This roadmap includes both strategic guidelines and concrete instructions for implementation and the necessary preparatory steps.
“GAMBIT quickly understood our requirements and guided us through the decision-making phase in a structured manner,” says Dominik Siegert, Chief Information Officer (CIO) at STÖBER Antriebstechnik. “Thank you to the entire project team at STÖBER and GAMBIT for their excellent work.”
