Case Study: C&J Energy Services achieves ERP–SharePoint unification and a single financial system of record with Gimmal Link

C&J Energy Services Simplifies Operations by Unifying ERP and SharePoint Content

C&J Energy Services, one of the largest oil & gas completion and production organizations in North America, faced a fragmented IT landscape after years of acquisitions—running seven different financial systems and lacking a simple way to store documents tied to SAP transactional data while needing a fast deployment to coincide with an SAP rollout. To avoid adding complexity or new skills to IT, they engaged Gimmal and its Gimmal Link solution to leverage their existing SharePoint environment.

Gimmal deployed Gimmal Link to integrate SAP and SharePoint, making SAP the single financial system of record while SharePoint stores related documents. The Gimmal implementation reduced financial systems from seven to one, unified business information under SharePoint, minimized deployment time and training needs, improved business cycle times and time-to-value, and lowered total cost of operations.
