HEMA Expansion
13
We became Holland’s favorite and we still are!
1926 2 stores 1940 24 stores 1970 95 stores
1985 193 stores 1995 242 stores 2011 +550 stores
in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Luxembourg
13
Expansion is key to HEMA …
Consequence
New formats do not always fit in the current model
Local influences (store level) become more important
Conclusion: new Supply Chain model is required:
Demand driven
Based upon local influences
Management by Exception
Teradata selected to support HEMA strategy:
DCM application
SAP BW integration
14
…but that puts pressure on HEMA supply chain
Challenges
Demand Chain Management
New Demand Chain (DCM) application on Teradata chosen as foundation of HEMA’s new Supply Chain model
Analysis did show, that most of the data needed to feed the DCM application already stored in SAP BW
Potential Data duplication issue raised
SAP Business Warehouse
Fast data SAP BW volume growth expected
Query performance issue with SAP BW on Oracle perceived
15
Strategy and Project Rules
Leverage the Teradata DCM investment also to
solve SAP BW (Oracle) performance issue
Avoid data redundancy - “Single version of the
truth”
Data scope: Sales and Stock subject area
(~50% of SAP BW data)
(Re-)Use current SAP BW ETL / Reporting
Keep or improve query performance
Performance test halfway the project!
