Case Study: Siemens achieves global IT simplification and faster reporting with SAP HANA

Setting Up a Global Landscape for Innovation with SAP HANA

Siemens Healthineers, a global technology company in the high-tech industry, faced the challenge of modernizing its complex and disparate IT infrastructure. The company needed a system with superior processing power to support innovative digital technologies and accelerate its business processes. To address this, they turned to SAP to leverage the in-memory computing power of the SAP HANA platform and migrate their SAP ERP application.

SAP's solution involved a standardized, groupwide rollout that migrated 53 separate ERP systems to the latest SAP ERP version on the SAP HANA platform within 18 months. This implementation by SAP delivered significant results, including reporting that was up to 90 times faster, a 60% increase in productivity, and a 24% reduction in database size. The project also reduced hardware costs and established a future-proof technological foundation for next-generation innovations.
