About the Customer
The customer, a renowned oil and gas company in the Middle East, is known for complex operations and extensive data management. Operating in one of the world’s most dynamic energy markets, the company manages critical operations across exploration, production, and distribution while handling vast amounts of data from multiple systems.
Business Scenario
Before Maventic, the client used SAP® S/4HANA® and SAP® SuccessFactors® for reporting, while battling data silos from eight non-SAP systems. Their aim: centralized analytics and mobile access to real-time insights.
Challenges
Operating with fragmented data across multiple systems, the client struggled to gain unified visibility and leverage advanced analytics for strategic decision-making.
- Data Fragmentation – Multiple systems and disparate data sources hindered a unified view of critical information, creating operational blind spots across the organization.
- Limited Analytical Capabilities – Existing systems lacked advanced analytics, hindering valuable insights and leading to suboptimal decision-making across business functions.
- Lack of Mobile Access – The client sought mobile analytics for real-time access to reports and dashboards to improve their decision-making capabilities in the field.
Solution
To address the client’s challenges, Maventic proposed and implemented SAP® BW/4HANA® as the centralized warehouse solution, API and Smart Data Access (SDA) integration for better data synchronization, and developed over 70 reports across various business areas.
- SAP BW/4HANA Warehouse Solution – Implemented SAP BW/4HANA as the centralized warehouse solution, facilitating seamless data integration from SAP and non-SAP systems.
- API Integration with SuccessFactors – Established a robust API integration between SAP BW/4HANA and SAP SuccessFactors, allowing for real-time data synchronization and comprehensive HR insights.
- SDA Integration with Non-SAP Systems – Utilizing the power of Smart Data Access, we connected the eight non-SAP systems to SAP BW/4HANA, creating a unified data landscape.
- Development of 70+ Reports – Utilizing BW/4HANA capabilities, we crafted over 75 reports across SD, MM, FI, PS, COPA, PP, PM, and HR domains, meeting diverse analytical needs.
- Analytics for Office (AFO) – We provided user-friendly access to the reports through the Analytics for Office (AFO) interface, enabling business users to work with familiar tools.
- Strategic Dashboard Development – To facilitate top-level decision-making, we developed eight interactive dashboards using SAP® Analytics Cloud for executive visibility.
