SAP Quality Awards 2025 presented

Since 2008, SAP Switzerland has presented the annual SAP Quality Award to customers who have distinguished themselves through particularly successful implementation projects. The focus is on projects that impress with careful planning, high quality standards and fast, cost-efficient implementation close to the SAP standard. With the Quality Awards, SAP says it not only honors outstanding customer projects, but also strengthens the community of thought leaders - a community in which the exchange and cooperation with customers and partners is specifically promoted.

In each category, one main winner and further winners were honored with an award. In the "SAP Business Transformation | Hybrid" category, the jury was even able to select two main winners. A total of eighteen projects from companies operating in Switzerland were honored this year, whose SAP projects met the award requirements to a particularly high degree.

Winner in the category "SAP Business Transformation | Cloud"

Interroll wins the main prize in the "SAP Business Transformation | Cloud" category. Other winners in this category are Belimo and Schweizerische Mobiliar. Interroll is a leading global supplier of rollers, motors, conveyors, pallet storage and conveying systems. As part of the project, Interroll introduced several SAP cloud solutions, including SAP S/4HANA Cloud, Global Trade Services and the Work Zone business technology platform. In addition, existing SAP products were integrated with the new solutions. A key aspect of the project was to improve operational efficiency in 21 countries.

The jury was particularly impressed by the targeted approach to the project, the focus on the achievable added business value, the clear communication strategy and the numerous innovations implemented.
