Suedstaerke | Manufacturing | 260 | $25M | Germany | SAP | SAP Business One HCM | Core HR | 2016 |
In 2016 Suedstaerke initiated specifications and planning for SAP Business One HCM in the Core HR category with implementation partner KEK Anwendungssysteme. The HR program was scoped to run on the companys long-standing IBM Power i hardware platform and to align with a concurrent SAP centralization effort across core business processes.
KEK Anwendungssysteme began drawing up detailed requirements in January 2016 and the project deliberately prioritized core ERP modules while scheduling Core HR work as a subsequent phase. Configuration work for SAP Business One HCM focused on personnel master data enrichment, alignment with existing payroll software, and controlled extensions only where standard functionality required augmentation. The project governance included extended user training and phased familiarization to reduce operational risk during cutover.
Operational coordination tied the HR phase to a major SAP go-live on July 1, 2017 when Sales SD, Materials Management MM, Production PP-PI, Warehouse WM, Quality Management QM, Financial Accounting FI and Controlling CO were simultaneously put into operation in both plants. HR and Plant Maintenance PM were intentionally postponed past that date to limit parallel workload, with maintenance planned for 2018 and HR scheduled after initial stabilization. The deployment preserved EDI interfaces to roughly 3,000 customers and retained IBM Power i as the production host.
Project governance combined KEK project leadership with internal project management, emphasizing exhaustive testing, completion of master data and limiting custom changes to essential items to protect future upgradeability. User commitment and strict cutover discipline were central to enforcing consistent process mapping across production, materials, sales and finance prior to the Core HR rollout. SAP Business One HCM remains positioned as a phased Core HR implementation following the integrated ERP foundation.
