Grupo Modelo | Consumer Packaged Goods | 50000 | $11.0B | Mexico | SAP | SAP ERP ECC 6.0 | ERP Financial | 2008 |
In 2008, Grupo Modelo implemented SAP ERP ECC 6.0 as its ERP Financial system. The deployment was executed for the Mexico-based consumer packaged goods firm with KIO Networks contracted to design the architecture and solution for the project tender, implement the SAP ERP ECC 6.0 solution, migrate systems to a new data center, and operate the migrated services.
The SAP ERP ECC 6.0 implementation centered on core ERP Financial capabilities, including financial accounting and controlling functionality. Configuration work emphasized general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and asset accounting workflows to support consolidated financial close and statutory reporting, consistent with ERP Financial application patterns.
The technical architecture and migration explicitly included a new data center environment and stack components such as IBM AIX, DB2 as the database layer, Intel based infrastructure, and SAP application tiers. KIO Networks managed the migration of systems into the new data center and the ongoing operation of the migrated IBM AIX, SAP, and DB2 services.
Governance activities documented in the project scope covered architecture design for the procurement process, solution implementation sequencing, system cutover to the new data center, and post migration service operations. The implementation impacted finance and accounting functions and established an operational model for running SAP ERP ECC 6.0 in a dedicated data center environment.

Grupo Modelo | Consumer Packaged Goods | 50000 | $11.0B | Mexico | IBM | IBM Power Systems | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2008 |
In 2008 Grupo Modelo implemented IBM Power Systems as the core compute platform for its Project META data center initiative, addressing Application Hosting and Computing Services needs across enterprise applications. The engagement began with diseño de arquitectura y solución for the project tender, establishing IBM Power Systems as the platform to host enterprise workloads and to centralize compute for SAP and DB2 landscapes.
IBM Power Systems was configured to run IBM AIX system software while supporting SAP application stacks and DB2 databases, alongside Intel-based workloads that remained in scope for co‑located services. Functional capabilities implemented included enterprise application hosting, database consolidation, and compute provisioning consistent with Application Hosting and Computing Services, with platform-level configuration and capacity planning documented during the architecture design.
The delivery included migration of systems to a new data center and subsequent operation of the services migrated under Project META, with KIO Networks engaged as the systems integrator and operations partner for implementation and ongoing service management. Integrations explicitly covered SAP application instances and DB2 databases operating on IBM AIX on IBM Power Systems, and the solution was handed over into an operational model for ongoing service delivery.
Governance for the rollout was centered on the procurement and licitation outputs that defined the architecture, implementation acceptance criteria, and operational responsibilities. Ongoing operation responsibilities included service hosting and platform administration for the workloads moved into the new data center, aligning platform operations with enterprise application and database lifecycle needs.

Grupo Modelo | Consumer Packaged Goods | 50000 | $11.0B | Mexico | IBM | IBM AIX | Operating System (OS) | 2008 |
In 2008, Grupo Modelo implemented IBM AIX as the Operating System (OS) for its META data center program. The engagement covered design of architecture and a solution for the project tender, and KIO Networks served as the SI/VAR responsible for architecture delivery and implementation support.
The deployment configured IBM AIX to host core enterprise application stacks, explicitly supporting SAP application servers and DB2 database instances. Configuration activities included OS provisioning, system hardening, and runtime configuration to stabilize application and database hosting on the IBM AIX platform.
The project scope included migration of systems to a new data center and the operation of the migrated services, with implementation artifacts documenting cutover planning and post-migration operations. Integrations referenced in the project delivery were SAP and DB2 application layers, and the program coordinated with Intel-based infrastructure components listed in the project inventory.
Operational governance was formalized between Grupo Modelo and KIO Networks to run the services migrated under the META project, with defined operations responsibilities and runbook driven service operation originating from the procurement phase. IBM AIX functioned as the core Operating System (OS) platform supporting enterprise application hosting, aligning system architecture, operations, and support processes for the migrated SAP and DB2 workloads.
