CIOReview | | 19 SEPTEMBER 2022while executing their merger, acquisition, or general digital transformation strategies. While consulting with clients on their migration strategies, cbs identifies specific use cases and suggests the most appropriate approach, whether Greenfield, Brownfield, hybrid, or a blended version. The company then harmonizes and standardizes the various components of the SAP system and prepares an transformation program for the long run. cbs can significantly reduce business disruptions and the impact of transformation programs on day-to-day operations by leveraging a near-zero downtime (NZDT) approach. In addition to its full suite of SAP consulting services, large corporations and global enterprises cbs also offers a fully managed e-invoicing solution for B2G scenarios around the world.cbs' ET capabilities enable value-based approaches to data selection, allowing the transfer of data regardless of its status and offering businesses complete flexibility regarding their cutover scenarios. Elaborating on this, Holger Bock, Managing Director of cbs APAC, adds, "ET functions entirely in the SAP landscape. Our project efforts are minimal since we already have standard content available for ECC to S/4HANA migration. Our team of internal developers ceaselessly upgrade the solution to holistically address all challenges of data integration and migration." cbs has a dedicated team of nearly a thousand SAP transformation specialists. The landscape transformation and functional SAP consultants have vast experience and a thorough understanding of SAP ecosystems, processes, and applications. With an operational footprint in the US, Europe, and APAC, cbs goes far beyond the market standards and sets international quality benchmarks of SAP consultancy, tailoring its services to meet the requirements of its diverse clients. Using a customer-centric approach, cbs has garnered the businesses of many international corporations and enterprises. One such brand is SPS Companies, a North American steel products manufacturer that partners with cbs to streamline data integration and migration of its M&A operations. SPS Companies decided to use the M&A activities as a launching pad for their transition to S/4HANA. Having acquired two companies that were implanted on S/4HANA and utilized conflicting system configurations, the client realized there was no way to merge the two systems using traditional methods. cbs, then, managed to substantially reduced the client's database size by migrating only 15 of their 30 company codes and only five years of historical data from their existing ECC environment. cbs executed a complete company code and time slice of their ECC environment and merged it into an up-and-running private cloud environment. Such success stories are a stark representation of the added value cbs provides to its customers, a clear substantiation of why 70 percent of market leaders in Germany avail its SAP consultancy services. Upholding the strong foundation it has formed in the European country, cbs expanded its operational footprint in the US over 5 years ago, enabling several businesses in the region to kick start their digital transformation expedition. Looking ahead, it is evident that cbs Corporate Business Solutions will continue to enable massive digital transformation across several industries, allowing businesses to reap the benefits of SAP solutions and serve their customers better. By migrating and updating SAP systems on the database level, we provide our customers high levels of flexibility and customisation when they embark on their digital transformation journeys
