How a global technology leader blueprinted 400+ cloud interfaces
A global industrial technology company with about 300,000 employees needed to modernize 400+ interfaces on SAP Cloud Integration. An SAP BTP architect and a team of 6 designed the target architecture, built reusable templates, and implemented core interfaces in 5 months, delivering integration about 3x faster.

The challenge
The company ran a landscape of 400+ interfaces across customer, invoice, payment, and goods movement processes, with no standardized templates or reusable integration assets. Legacy integrations had to move to SAP Cloud Integration on a secure, scalable architecture that could support large-scale operations.
Results
- 400+
- Interfaces audited across enterprise systems
- 100%
- Integration blueprint delivered for the North America business unit
- 3x
- Faster integration delivery with reusable templates
Questions
How was a landscape of 400+ interfaces brought under control?
The team audited the interfaces, then delivered a solution blueprint with cost analysis, resource planning, and timelines. A template-based framework gave every interface a common starting point, which made the migration to SAP Cloud Integration structured and repeatable.
Which business processes were implemented first?
The team built interfaces for customer, invoice, payment, and goods movement processes. These are the core transactional flows, so they proved the templates and the secure cloud architecture on high-volume, business-critical integrations.
What made delivery faster?
Reusable integration templates removed repeated design and build work. Combined with a clear blueprint and an EDI sub-system design for third-party logistics partners, the team delivered about 3x faster than a build from scratch.
