In 2019 Hochland SE engaged valantic to migrate its SAP R/3 environment to SAP S/4 HANA as an ERP Financial initiative, selecting SAP S/4 HANA from vendor SAP and choosing a greenfield migration strategy to return core finance and related processes to standard functionality. The decision to move off years of in-house R/3 adaptations was explicitly driven by the need to create a stable foundation for future digital initiatives, and Hochland framed the S/4 HANA migration as a central element of its S/4 Future program.
The implementation built SAP S/4 HANA as a new system landscape while selectively reusing proven process work through brownfield conversions for specific sub-areas such as recipe development. The migration program addressed integrated business planning IBP, human capital management HCM, manufacturing execution systems MES, and Big Data topics as part of the broader solution scope, and it included explicit plans for employee training and capability development to support new standard processes.
Project delivery used an agile continuous discovery and delivery model with SCRUM elements, operating one-month sprints where a discovery team specified integration and subprocess requirements and a delivery team executed the build. Sprints were organized for both subprocesses and integration processes, creating tight feedback loops and scalable SCRUM governance that reduced friction between specification and implementation.
Operational coverage spanned finance, planning and supply chain, manufacturing execution, and HR related functions, reflecting the cross-functional nature of an ERP Financial migration into an enterprise S/4 HANA backbone. The program was executed internationally with formal kickoff and stakeholder alignment, and valantic served as the system integrator and implementation partner throughout design and delivery phases.
Governance emphasized an approval gate between discovery and delivery, continuous one-month iteration cycles, and pragmatic use of brownfield where preexisting process models proved reusable, enabling end-to-end process automation and the breakdown of functional silos. SAP S/4 HANA will serve as the basis for Hochland SEs digital transformation and future integrations, with the migration intended to standardize processes and prepare the company for IBP, MES, HCM, Big Data, and ongoing workforce upskilling.

In 2014, Hochland SE implemented SAP SuccessFactors Learning alongside SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting, targeting a unified talent lifecycle for learning and acquisition. The deployment is explicitly oriented to the Learning and Development category and centers on SAP SuccessFactors Learning as the enterprise learning management application, with itelligence serving as the implementation partner.
The implementation covered core SAP SuccessFactors Learning capabilities, including centralized course catalog management, learning assignments and curricula, training plan orchestration, and administrative workflows for learning administration. Recruiting was implemented for Management and Marketing, enabling a contiguous configuration approach where learning assignments and onboarding curricula are provisioned as part of candidate-to-employee transitions.
Operational scope focused on HR and talent acquisition functions, with configuration aligned to recruiting teams in management and marketing and HR administrators who manage learning governance. The engagement integrated SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting and SAP SuccessFactors Learning to align onboarding workflows, manager approvals, and role-based learning assignments, preserving a single source of record for employee learning status and training requirements.
Governance and rollout were administered through itelligence, which managed configuration, role-based access controls, and phased activation of learning workflows across HR processes. Change governance emphasized standardized administrative procedures, manager escalation paths for learning approvals, and centralized catalog governance to support ongoing course maintenance and compliance tracking within the Learning and Development function.
