A Historic First for the Federal Government
Zolon Tech Inc. (ZTI) has made history as the first federal government contractor to successfully migrate a critical enterprise system to SAP’s cutting-edge S4HANA platform. Working with the U.S. Department of the Interior’s (DOI) Financial and Business Management System (FBMS) and the Business Integration Office (BIO), ZTI played a key role in this groundbreaking effort to modernize DOI’s financial and business operations for the future.
FBMS is a comprehensive enterprise system used by over 12,000 employees across all DOI bureaus and departmental offices, integrating financial, procurement, and business functions into a single platform. With SAP’s requirement to migrate its legacy ERP systems to S4HANA by 2027, DOI faced the critical challenge of modernizing FBMS to meet future business needs while maintaining operational continuity.
First SAP S4HANA Migration in the Federal Sector
The migration of FBMS to SAP S4HANA is the largest system upgrade DOI has undertaken since the initial deployment of FBMS. This historic migration required a complex, coordinated effort to ensure that the system, which supports all financial and business functions for DOI, transitioned seamlessly to the new platform.
Key elements of ZTI’s role in this groundbreaking migration include:
Comprehensive SAP Module Migration
ZTI migrated DOI’s critical SAP ERP modules, ensuring seamless integration and continued functionality across financial, business intelligence, and procurement systems.
In-Memory Database Technology
SAP S4HANA’s in-memory database platform allows for faster data processing, real-time analytics, and enhanced system performance, providing DOI with unprecedented speed and accuracy in decision-making.
Business Continuity and Stabilization
ZTI’s expert team ensured that FBMS remained fully operational throughout the migration, minimizing disruption and maintaining stability as the platform transitioned to S4HANA.
End-to-End Support
From planning and implementation to post-migration stabilization, ZTI provided full lifecycle support to ensure the platform’s reliability and performance during and after the migration.
Delivering Results for the Department of the Interior
The migration of FBMS to SAP S4HANA has delivered a range of benefits for DOI, including:
Faster Data Processing
The S4HANA platform’s in-memory technology allows for quicker access to real-time data, enabling more informed decision-making across DOI’s bureaus and offices.
Improved System Performance
With the migration to S4HANA, DOI’s FBMS now operates with enhanced performance and reliability, ensuring that mission-critical functions such as financial management, procurement, and reporting are supported by a more efficient platform.
Future-Proofing DOI’s Operations
By migrating to S4HANA ahead of SAP’s 2027 deadline, DOI has positioned itself as a leader in IT modernization within the federal government, ensuring compliance with SAP’s ongoing support and future-proofing the department’s financial and business management operations.
Enhanced Security
With FedRAMP Moderate authorization, HHS can confidently operate the platform while maintaining compliance with stringent federal security standards, ensuring the protection of sensitive data.
