CASE STUDY
With MDH , HEB can comprehensively manage its digital assets through three abstracted layers : people , projects and equipment .
“ By establishing boundaries between the three data archetypes , ERP data accurately feeds through and lands where it should locally , and vice versa . For example , new hire information now pulls in our Boomi ‘ people ’ bucket and trickles up to the ERP when minimum data completeness is reached .
“ We ’ re becoming a digital centric business and not just a construction company that has data . This means we aren ’ t just installing shiny new tech ; we ’ re giving systems meaning by connecting them around the stable enterprise data core . This is especially relevant to our AI plans , because you cannot have AI without IA ( information architecture ). With Boomi , we ’ re now ready ,” said Van Der Walt .
Nathan Gower , Senior Director for Enterprise , APAC , Boomi , said : “ This is a true representation of local innovation born out of a global company ’ s recognition for unique requirements needed inregion . HEB used Boomi to create a crossbreed of top performing systems , and by doing so , established a mutual understanding that there are no camps – rather , both organisations used their respective systems and tools to create an integrated outcome serving a common goal .” p
