Case Study: Hewlett-Packard achieves 400% faster reporting, restored pricing stability and minimal downtime in system split with SAP HANA

When Difficult and Critical Issues Arise, SAP MaxAttention™ Always Comes Through

The Hewlett‑Packard Company, a global high‑tech leader that recently split into Hewlett Packard Enterprise and HP Inc., faced three urgent IT challenges: business‑critical reports from SAP Business Warehouse were taking days or weeks, an unstable pricing system threatened quote generation, and the company needed to replicate 40 production SAP systems for the split while keeping downtime under two days.

HP engaged SAP MaxAttention to migrate BW from Oracle to SAP HANA, stabilize and tune the pricing platform, and clone the 40 systems with minimal interruption. The work delivered up to 4x faster planning and analysis, cut average CPU load from 70% to 35%, limited split downtime to 1.5 days, restored reliable quoting, reduced inventory carrying costs, freed operations staff for innovation, and earned HP advanced SAP COE certification.
