Case Study of Barmer

Challenge: BARMER is Germany’s biggest health insurance company with 7.1 million policyholders. Their head office is in Wuppertal-Barmen, Germany. For over 120 years BARMER has capitalised on customer satisfaction. In the event of illness, customers are well provided for and enjoy many extras. The complex requirements of IT infrastructure and thus of IT Support have grown rapidly in the last few years. With over 15,000 work stations in 89 regional and national offices as well as over 900 district offices, the IT infrastructure has increased steadily and presents a particular challenge for data management.



Case Study of Barmer


Solution: Considering the size and importance of the project, the first step was to define the IT objectives, closely analyse existing weak points in the IT infrastructure and elicit the causes. It was important for BARMER that after a short start phase for testing and integration, the consolidation and optimisation of client infrastructure was advanced.

Case Study on Arla Foods

“When you’re really using applications to the edge like this, you need to have a partner like SAP Consulting who knows how to go there.”
- Sune Slemming, Application Owner, Arla Foods amba.



Arla Food’s rapid growth in recent years was the result of multiple mergers and acquisitions, and, as a result, the company struggled with system integration and business process challenges. “We’d gone through numerous tough consolidations, each time trying to piece together integrations and platforms, but management still lacked the transparency required to synchronize the activities of the various parts of the business,” explains Slemming. “The selfdeveloped application we were using for project and portfolio management couldn’t access the enterprise-wide data management required, so decision makers had inadequate – and even inaccurate – information to support project portfolio management decisions. This was causing misalignment of projects with the company’s overall business strategy.” Read further about Arla Foods
