GROHE Enjoys Integrated Solutions on Tap With IBM Service-Enabling Software

Overview

Making plumbing fixtures functional as well as attractive is the overriding goal of GROHE AG (GROHE), the largest water technology solutions provider in Europe, and the largest exporter of faucets, bath mountings and other household and commercial fixtures worldwide. In gathering requirements for a new SAP enterprise resource planning system, the company was chartered with figuring out how to exchange data between the new SAP modules and several legacy applications that were crucial to the company's business. GROHE chose SerCon to design and implement a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) with an enterprise service bus because it was the fastest and most reliable way to meet their deadline.
