Every M&A project is different 

Every merger or acquisition comes with its own challenges – no two companies or digital landscapes are the same. Whether this is your first project or one of many, successful integration depends on a clear strategy and the right tools. With a streamlined approach, you can avoid delays, prevent data inconsistencies, and build a unified system that performs even better than before.

Airbus: SNP BLUEFIELD® provides turbo thrust for data migration

Airbus Commercial Aircraft currently uses five large local ERP systems with different structures and characteristics. Its mediumterm goal is to centralize the local finance processes on one uniform platform (Central Finance).

Diehl Aircabin: two become one – keeping system harmonization always under control

During the past two years, Diehl Aerosystems, a division of the Diehl Group, drew up and enacted a new IT strategy for all of its business units. The goal was to use synergies across the division more effectively. An important line of action in this regard was harmonizing the processes of the division’s business units. In 2012, Diehl Service Modules GmbH (formerly Mühlenberg) was integrated into the division. Diehl Aircabin faced the challenge of consolidating its business processes with the new business unit, and launched the first major harmonization project in the division together with the new affiliated company. Up until its integration into the division, Diehl Service Modules worked with a Kifos solution from Sage bäurer GmbH as its ERP system. Within the scope of this harm-onization project, all of the associated logistics processes were to be discontinued and replaced with Diehl Aircabin’s processes. To do so, the processes were to be transferred to the existing SAP® ERP system.

Mondelēz International optimally prepares IT systems for merger with SNP software

Mondelēz had agreed to acquire Greek snacking company Chipita as part of the strategy to expand its snacking portfolio and geographical reach into the fast-growing markets of Central and Eastern Europe. Mondelēz were keen to gain an early view of Chipita’s systems to understand what they were set to inherit and plan how to incorporate the systems. Chipita needed to prepare a view of its systems for Mondelēz that would facilitate a speedy merger of the two companies’ systems. As the deal was not yet complete and under review by anti-trust authorities, it was vital for Chipita not to give away any sensitive information prior to the acquisition, as well as to follow masking requirements provided by anti-trust specialists.
