Challenge.
From the very outset, the objective was to design a comprehensive Datacenter infrastructure, fully compatible with SAP S/4HANA and capable of supporting all of the client’s functional requirements. This holistic vision guided our initial analyses and proposals. As the project progressed and discussions evolved, a reassessment of priorities led to a reduction in the originally envisaged functional scope. This adjustment made it possible to refine the infrastructure to address real business needs more precisely, while optimizing the resources deployed.
«From the very first proposals, Bechtle was the only partner to present an infrastructure that fully met the specific constraints of SAP environments, while applying best practices and providing the necessary indicators for comprehensive support.» emphasizes Bertrand Déturche.
Our teams produced exceptionally thorough documentation—based on in-depth research and analysis—which significantly supported the internal decision-making process of Caran d’Ache’s IT team.
Thanks to our adaptability, we were able to support the project even as its priorities shifted, ensuring a smooth implementation that remained perfectly aligned with the revised requirements and objectives.
Solution.
For this project, we worked closely with our partner Dell Technologies to define the overall infrastructure design. Installation, documentation, and project execution were carried out entirely by Bechtle Experts, guaranteeing a complete renewal of the existing infrastructure. The new equipment will also serve as a backup solution during the relocation to the new industrial site, ensuring operational continuity and security.
The project was delivered with rigorous organization, a well-managed pace, and the involvement of the right expertise at key moments. Testing and documentation were conducted to a very high standard, providing the client with a reliable, high-performance solution perfectly aligned with its needs.
«The Dell infrastructure and hardware proposed combine performance and reliability, backed by outstanding technical expertise. The teams’ know-how made it possible to carry out this project with complete peace of mind. Our trust in Bechtle only strengthened as the project progressed.» says Bertrand Déturche
Throughout the project, the Bechtle teams demonstrated their ability to listen to our needs and adapt with great precision. Their professionalism, customer-oriented solutions, and exceptionally thorough commercial proposal were at a level we had rarely encountered. The expertise of the technical pre-sales team was also remarkable.
