In 2006 Siemens Energy Oil&Gas started the ATLAS-project. The main objective of the ATLAS-project is to harmonize existing business processes in the different locations of the Siemens Energy Oil&Gas division. Also, the ATLAS SAP-Template was developed in order to implement/support the harmonized business processes.
I joined the ATLAS-project in September 2008 during the roll-out preparation phase for Finspang (Sweden).
The ATLAS SAP-system went live in October 2009 in Finspang (Sweden). The locations Görlitz and Nürnberg (both in Germany) went live in May 2011. The locations Duisburg (DE)/Hengelo (NL)/Erlangen (DE) went live in October 2102, and finally, the last site Brno (Czech Republic) went live in February 2013.
