Daimler AG, Stuttgart, is a leading company in the automotive industry, with its businesses: Daimler trucks, buses, and financial services; Mercedes-Benz cars and vans. After using SAP R/3 for many years, Daimler's subsidiaries in Colombia and Mexico decided to upgrade to version ECC 6.0 with the support of NetPartners and the experience gained from several upgrade projects. Daimler successfully migrated to the latest version of the ERP with minimal risk and within a reasonable time frame. The first upgrade project covered operations in Colombia, which, after successful results, led to the second project in Mexico.
