The client operates a SaaS platform for managing rail and intermodal transport (Rail-Flow Transport Management Platform).

For two of its customers, it was looking for a 3-month project management replacement. Both customers offer rail and intermodal transport services. Implementation progress differs: one customer is already live and wanted its Phase 2 enhancements implemented; the other customer is implementing its MVP and entering an intensive testing phase.

As part of the assignment, project management was taken over, including management of the internal development team (offshore Turkey).

• Took over complete project management for 2 customer projects, including the roles of Product Owner and Co-Scrum Master
• Managed agile implementation teams consisting of business analysts, implementation consultants, developers (offshore) and QA staff

• Requirements and change management: management of contractual requirements, bugs and changes
• Customer and project communication: organization and moderation of status meetings and steering committees
• Identification of project risks, initiation of countermeasures and escalation

• Goal/Motivation: PAYONE urgently needs a 360° view of its customers. PAYONE has not had an overarching master data strategy so far. It is not possible to identify customers across all relevant systems.

The organization should be enabled to identify customers across all relevant systems. Establishing the basis for master data management at PAYONE

• Challenge: Due to company acquisitions, the system landscape is very heterogeneous. The company is very dynamic and burdened with many system harmonization and integration projects, meaning resource shortages and changes in project priorities repeatedly make this an almost impossible task.

Due to BaFin findings, the project has a central task and role. The initial focus is on migrating all customers, including their AML/KYC data, from the master-data-leading backend systems to Salesforce. This is intended to resolve one of the largest findings and establish the relevant ODD/EDD processes.

In addition, customer data must be harmonized in Salesforce. Some customers were entered multiple times as a result of earlier migrations. The aim is for only one customer record to remain in Salesforce and for the relevant information from the backend systems to show which products the customer uses and in which processing systems they receive Payone services.
