Case Study: Archive Consolidation During Company Takeovers

Case study: archive consolidation

webPDF can be used in many different scenarios, as our case studies and user reports repeatedly show with concrete real-world examples. Among other things, webPDF can also be used during company mergers.

In this context, companies often look for software that can be integrated seamlessly and easily into existing software structures and can transfer content from countless formats out of an old archive into an existing archive, in other words support the merging of two large archives. In the past, webPDF has repeatedly played a supporting role in important migration projects.

Challenge for IT: Data Consolidation​

In the case of company takeovers, webPDF can be used to merge archives into one another. Since two companies are being connected, this involves important data from the respective archives that must be made available to users quickly and in a true-to-original form. This requires working with the existing solutions already in use at the companies involved, for example SAP.

Customer Requirements in Merging Projects​

  • The software tool required for the merging project must be able to export the documents from the old file system as a separate tool and process and archive them properly.
  • The tool must be easy to integrate as a component into a larger system.
  • The task of the software is to support data transfer and conversion.
  • Existing data must be standardized and transferred into a new system. This also applies to documents in different formats that need to be standardized.
