Problem Statement
PLUS, one of Germany’s largest discount retail chains, needed to migrate its extensive procurement and sourcing data to a new version of e-contor software. The process had to ensure no data loss, maintain structural consistency, and be completed within a tight weekend window to prevent any operational impact.
Our Solution
We designed a precise, time-boxed migration strategy, including in-depth analysis of old and new data schemas, the development of robust migration scripts, and rigorous testing through mock migrations. The final migration was successfully executed overnight during a weekend with full data integrity and zero business downtime.
