Case Study: G4S achieves secure SAP data carve-out with EPI-USE Labs

G4S trusts EPI-USE Labs to carve out data from SAP systems

G4S International, a global security company, required a complex data separation from its SAP ERP systems after divesting its cash businesses. The challenge involved carving out specific company codes from single SAP systems in two different countries, which would then be handed over to the new owner, Brink’s Company. To achieve this, they turned to EPI-USE Labs and their System Landscape Optimisation (SLO) solution and Data Sync Manager for Landscape Transformation.

EPI-USE Labs implemented a flexible and pragmatic approach, using their tools to create an intelligent data selection and ensure the systems worked correctly after the split. Both carve-out projects, which were part of a larger divestiture, were delivered successfully on time and on budget within tight ten-week timelines. The vendor's solution provided G4S with a secure, accurate carve-out of only the required data, leading the Group CIO to commend EPI-USE Labs for their exceptional delivery on commitments.
