Project
SAP BW Implementation

Industry
Medical Technologies

Client Overview and Business Challenge
The client is a world leader in medical technology, providing lifelong solutions for people with chronic disease. Each year, millions of patients benefit from the company’s technology, which is used to treat conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, neurological disorders, and vascular illnesses. The client had a need to download data from medical devices and being able to analyze the data recorded. The data could be either automatically downloaded from the medical device or manually entered by patient. A distinction had to be made between automatic device data and patient manual entry.

Solution
By analyzing the company’s data and reporting needs, a multi-dimensional model was developed within SAP Business Information Warehouse by drawing data from a non-SAP database via DB connect.

Client Benefits
The SAP BW data model was scaled for future growth and designed for performance. This model distinguishes between the dual reporting needs of automatic and manually entered data.
