In 2023 Kemira implemented SAP S/4HANA Cloud as its ERP Financial platform. As of June 1, 100% of Kemira was live on SAP S/4HANA Cloud following a big-bang go-live and a platform update into Azure Cloud, executed under a company-wide program named LEAP that encompassed five initiatives.
The implementation delivered a redesigned financial accounting core and a ONE Finance transformation, with configuration work focused on SAP S/4HANA margin analysis and standardized financial processes. Kemira also deployed SAP Analytics Cloud for reporting, analytics, and financial planning, and adopted SAP Datasphere as the next-generation enterprise data warehouse to centralize reporting and data models.
Architecture and integration work included a selective data transition from SAP ERP Central Component SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA, migration of on-premise interfaces, and conversion of over 360 interfaces onto SAP Business Technology Platform using SAP Integration Suite. The solution landscape therefore spans SAP S/4HANA Cloud for transactions, SAP Datasphere for the enterprise data warehouse, SAP Analytics Cloud for front-end analytics, and Azure Cloud as the hyperscaler for infrastructure.
The rollout covered 400 plants in 37 countries and was preceded by a comprehensive pre-study to determine which processes to migrate as-is and which to redesign, enabling a fast value approach. Kemira worked with cbs Corporate Business Solutions as a strategic implementation partner, leveraging combined in-house expertise to manage organizational change, data harmonization, and interface migration within a 15 month delivery window.
The program emphasized business continuity and a platform for future innovation, with a smooth go-live and a company-wide shift toward data-driven business models. SAP S/4HANA Cloud now serves Kemira as the ERP Financial backbone supporting finance, accounting, planning, and integrated process control while positioning the company to consume future SAP innovations.

In 2023 Kemira implemented SAP Analytics Cloud as part of its LEAP program, deploying a company wide reporting and planning front end within its SAP business architecture. This implementation accompanied a full move to SAP S/4HANA and a platform migration to Azure, positioning analytics and planning as core enablers for data driven business models.
SAP Analytics Cloud was configured to provide reporting, analytics, and financial planning capabilities, and it was explicitly used to support margin analysis and the company s ONE Finance transformation and redesigned financial accounting processes. The deployment was integrated with SAP Datasphere which Kemira introduced as its next generation enterprise data warehouse foundation, enabling consolidated datasets for enterprise reporting and planning.
Architecturally SAP Analytics Cloud functions as the front end consuming curated datasets in SAP Datasphere, while transactional and master data reside in SAP S/4HANA running on Azure. To enable cross system orchestration Kemira converted more than 360 interfaces to SAP Business Technology Platform and leveraged SAP Integration Suite to manage data flows between S/4HANA, Datasphere and the Analytics front end.
The program used a selective data transition approach from SAP ECC and began with a comprehensive pre study to determine which processes would migrate as is and which would be redesigned, a governance decision that focused scope and accelerated delivery. The effort was executed as a big bang go live covering 400 plants in 37 countries in 15 months, with cbs Corporate Business Solutions acting as a strategic implementation partner and contributing methods and tools to manage organizational change and data harmonization.
Kemira reported a smooth go live and maintained business continuity, noting the new platform positions the company to leverage follow on SAP developments and to advance data driven decision making. SAP Analytics Cloud is now the company's primary Analytics and BI front end for enterprise reporting and financial planning across its global operations.
