Episode 107: How Knorr-Bremse Unlocked Value with SAP S/4HANA – Michael Hilzinger
Description
Guest: Michael Hilzinger – CIO, Knorr-Bremse
Host: Timo Deiner – Director, Cloud Transformation and Architecture
“SAP S/4HANA is the biggest transformation project in our 110 years company history” – a quote that describes the significance of the change in the company of my today’s guest.
Michael Hilzinger joined me and gave insights on his approach to transform to SAP S/4 HANA. Michael is CIO at the German manufacturer Knorr-Bremse. 110 years ago, they drastically improved the safety of trains by providing brakes and removing the so called “brake vans”, a manually operated braking system.
We spoke about the analogy from back then with a modern SAP S/4HANA system, the role and factors of change management in such a huge transformation and why it’s helpful to improve incrementally instead of a big bang move.
So, if you are interested in firsthand customer insights and perspectives, this episode is made for you. Grab your coffee and tune in.
My name is Timo Deiner, welcome to the SAP Experts Podcast.
