Case Study: Bahlsen achieves centralized, automated global payments and seamless SAP S/4HANA migration with TIS (Treasury Intelligence Solutions)

Bahlsen - Customer Case Study

Bahlsen, the Hanover‑based, family‑owned biscuit manufacturer with operations across Europe, North America and Asia, faced a decentralized payments landscape with significant manual work: payments were executed locally from ERPs through multiple e‑banking tools, leaving Group Treasury without global visibility and exposing the company to error and fraud. To centralize payments, improve security and support an SAP migration, Bahlsen implemented the cloud‑based TIS (Treasury Intelligence Solutions) SaaS payments platform and the TIS SAP Add‑on.

TIS delivered a cloud‑native solution that enabled straight‑through processing from ERP systems to banks, unified payment approvals and flexible global signatory control, and provided a single, worldwide liquidity view. As a result—per Bahlsen’s objectives achieved 100%—TIS eliminated manual payment steps, made transactions fully traceable, reduced risk and IT effort, and supported a smooth R3→S4/HANA transition; the platform also offers frequent updates (>40/year) and 99.95% uptime.
