mSCORE

Replacing legacy warehouse software with SAP EWM at the Mannheim hub
IT Project Lead: Jens Becker Status: CW27 / July 2026 Go-Live Target: Feb 2028
Context
Why SCORE?
Supply Chain Operations Run EWM
The new ASPIRE timeline opens a strategic window to modernize legacy warehouse management systems — before the main transformation wave.
⏱

Strategic Window

ASPIRE replanning creates a unique opportunity to replace end-of-life WMS systems ahead of the main deployment wave.

⚠

Legacy Risk

Outdated systems (LogSys, Exacta, x47) require replacement to protect operations at Mannheim, Indianapolis, and Monsheim.

🎯

One Platform

Align global hubs on a single SAP EWM (x84) platform — realizing the DSC strategic goal "Next Gen IT and Processes".

How
Retain PLS Material Flow System.
Replace the rest with EWM x84 in one step.

What's Next
Key Focus Areas

📈 Increase Handover Rate

Accelerate story refinement and handover across all 6 process teams. Target: move from 3.4% to 15%+ by end of PI 8.

📋 Reduce Unplanned Backlog

113 stories without PI labels need assignment. Systematic cleanup sprint-by-sprint to improve planning accuracy.

⚡ Crunch Time Preparation

Preparing for the critical delivery phase in PI 8 and beyond. Ramping up team capacity, aligning dependencies, and ensuring readiness for accelerated build & test cycles.
