Summary

I started at cimt consulting ag in the SAP BI/BW area. Through several SAP BW projects, I gained extensive knowledge in the various areas of SAP BW and a range of source modules.

In addition to reporting projects, I also worked on planning projects with BW-BPS and BI-IP. I also successfully implemented SAP BusinessObjects Xcelsius as part of a customer project.

As a subproject manager, I coordinated and monitored the work of the BI consultants involved in the project.

During a multi-year customer assignment, in addition to my project work, I had the opportunity to provide application management for an SAP BW system within a complex SAP system landscape.
