A Fusion of Tradition and Future: SAP Signavio Boosts Kaiser’s Digitization

When Andreas Vehreschild took up his new position as Chief Digital Officer (CDO) at Kaiser Group in September 2022, he was given the challenging task of digitizing the over-100-year-old traditional provider of electrical installation products and systems. The Kaiser Group is a third-generation, family-run company and sees itself as both a pioneer and an innovation leader. Based in Schalkesmühle, Germany, the company has subsidiaries in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland.

The new CDO had two specific goals: first, to standardize processes across all subsidiaries and create a template for any newly acquired business to follow, and second, to upgrade Kaiser’s outdated legacy system to SAP S/4HANA.

He embraced the challenge, recognizing that comprehending the business processes was an essential first step for long-term success. He also was aware that this challenging task could only be accomplished with a strong partner, engaged contributors, and a powerful IT tool. This is where digital consultancy and SAP partner Valantic and the business process transformation portfolio SAP Signavio came into play.
