Motivation

Project Environment• Fast growing turnover in all major entities• PW entities grow accordingly• PW entities grow accordingly• Projects cross-linked between entities

Situation: Heterogeneous, Niche-solutions and ExcelSituation: Heterogeneous, Niche solutions and Excel• No professional integrated tool for business processes in major entities• Growing number of niche-solutions lead to hardly manageable interfaces• High effort to assure local and corporate controlling• High risk of error• Generation of comparable figures cumbersome
