A manufacturer from the marine and offshore industry wanted to migrate its master data to SAP which meant organizing, translating, checking and researching 25 years of data.

I took over the project management for this milestone and presented my ideas to the client during a customer visit. After the project was given the go-ahead, I set up a team and together we translated over 220,000 words in the field of naval engineering. However, this was not an easy one-and-done translation project: It required meticulous research skills to find the correct German counterpart for the neverending bill of materials.

The project took place over the span of 6 months and was successfully completed in the second quarter of 2018.
