Introducing worldwide turnover and sales planning

Vibracoustic wanted to optimise its planning processes. It needed to centralise global sales and turnover planning to this end. Its specialist department would have to have faster access to relevant information in order to make better decisions.

adesso initially developed a consolidated data model from different source systems (Hybris C4C, SAP ERP). The resulting flexible, high-performance model is based on a modern architecture consisting of SAP BW 7.4 on HANA, SAP BPC 10.1 embedded and the CRM system SAP Hybris Cloud for Customer. The best-of-breed approach selected is high-performance, highly flexible and – thanks to the HANA database – scalable.

The new software technology enables Vibracoustic to flexibly link market and price data on an ad-hoc basis – including a multi-level bill of materials – which, in addition to planning, also facilitates complex reports and simulations, for example, with regard to the risk of price changes for purchased raw materials. Since an agile project methodology with the regular presentation of interim results was selected, it was possible to directly incorporate suggestions for changes into its further development.
