Results

Successful merger

Despite the high complexity of the task, which required tremendous expertise and flexibility on the part of the scc team, it was possible to merge both source systems into a shared SAP S/4HANA platform, thereby supporting the overall migration.

Completely remote implementation

The entire project was handled remotely since travel to New Zealand was not possible during the pandemic. Despite difficult conditions, such as the large time difference between Austria and New Zealand, the project was completed successfully. This was due in no small part to the many years of experience and the good collaboration between scc and OMV.

The area of finances handled by scc as part of the overall migration at OMV New Zealand was implemented within a period of just 9 months.
