Case Study: TDC Group achieves GDPR compliance and automated ROPA with Software AG's ARIS Connect

Protecting data during digital transformation ARIS Connect & GDPR compliance

TDC Group, Denmark’s leading telecommunications company with over 8,000 employees, faced a major compliance challenge when the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into force. Critical obligations under Article 30 required authoritative Records of Processing Activities (ROPA), but TDC’s data was scattered across 1,300 processes in Excel, Word, PowerPoint and PDFs and relied on manual, error-prone procedures.

TDC implemented Software AG’s ARIS Connect and ARIS Aware to model processes, populate them with live system data, and automate governance workflows. The solution created a single source of truth, automated ROPA generation and periodic reviews, visualized processes for clarity, and delivered GDPR compliance while eliminating tedious manual work.
