Coles sets up SAP S/4HANA finance core in five months utilising the SNP BLUEFIELD™ approach
Key Takeaways
⇨ Coles completed a complex migration of 12 years of data and custom configurations in just five months.
⇨ SNP’s approach ensured near-zero downtime during the migration, allowing Coles to maintain operations during its busiest period.
⇨ By upgrading to SAP S/4HANA, Coles is now equipped with a stable, innovative platform to support its long-term digital transformation strategy.
Ahead of its demerger from Wesfarmers Group, Coles aimed to accelerate its digital transformation by migrating its core finance system to SAP S/4HANA. Faced with the challenge of executing this critical upgrade during its busiest time of year, Coles turned to SNP for a rapid and efficient migration solution. Using SNP’s BLUEFIELD™ approach, Coles managed to migrate 12 years of historical data and custom configurations to SAP S/4HANA in just five months, with minimal disruption to business operations. The project, which included a data history transfer, cloud migration, and New General Ledger conversion, was completed with near-zero downtime, allowing Coles to maintain continuity across its financial operations and reporting to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). SNP’s CrystalBridge® platform ensured that the migration was executed on time and within budget, positioning Coles for continued innovation and growth.
