IBM-SAP Automotive Faurecia – Enabling always-on operations by switching to a multi-instance SAP landscape Minimizes downtime thanks to longer regional maintenance windows Cuts complexity with fewer users per instance while maintaining common core system The transformation: Faurecia has moved from a single to a multi-instance SAP landscape, and is adopting a more regional vision for the management of high availability. With each SAP instance covering a subset of global time zones, Faurecia has more possible maintenance windows, reducing potential business disruption. The change is also an enabler for a new global business continuity and disaster recovery strategy. Supports future growth by providing a flexible and secure multi-site architecture Client Name: Faurecia Case study Link: bin/ssialias?subtype=AB&infotype=PM&appname=SNDE_SP_SP_WWEN&htmlfid=SP C03491WWEN&attachment=SPC03491WWEN.PDF Pull Quote: “IBM Global Business Services was able to provide the expert global resources and mobilize additional capacity when needed to make this project an outstanding success, readying Faurecia for its next expansion phase.” – Eric Godard, Head of Applications, Faurecia Company Background: Automotive components manufacturer Faurecia supplies leading global vehicle makers with emissions control technologies, seating, and interior and exterior systems.
