Überblick

The challenge

AGRAVIS required better speed, scalability, and query options. They needed to bring data together from a wide range of sources, and maintenance costs were too high. The teams couldn’t work with virtual views, making development cycles longer, and even small adjustments were time-consuming — on the old system, drawing up and filling in columns in a spreadsheet would take several hours. The team ran a four-week proof of concept, culminating in a trial migration of the data warehouse.


The solution

The data from three ERP systems, a CRM, and online shops is collected and stored in a central Group data warehouse. The Data Analytics team provides centralized data supply, and users compile reports using SAP BusinessObjects.


“We can respond more quickly and with a more granular approach. It used to take us a lot more time to supply the required information to the departments.”

Maximilian Holl, Manager Data Analytics
