Case Study: General Datatech (GDT) achieves real-time insights and accelerated finance close with SAP HANA (SAP S/4HANA)

Transforming Business and Creating a Model for Customers with SAP S/4HANA

General Datatech (GDT), a Dallas‑based high‑tech professional services firm of about 600 employees that had grown 20–30% annually for seven years, needed an ERP that could scale with the business, deliver real‑time analytics to C‑level executives, and simplify finance processes to maintain its competitive edge.

GDT joined the SAP Early Adopter Care program and implemented SAP S/4HANA with the SAP Fiori UX, creating a single source of truth and eliminating batch jobs to provide real‑time financial and operational insight on mobile devices. The rollout accelerated operations—year‑end close moved from 3½ months to real time, quote turnaround dropped from hours to minutes, and users adopted the system in about two weeks—enabling faster decision‑making and continued growth.
