Workload Automation Migration for Automotive Manufacturer
Challenge

Legacy mainframe, business-critical dependencies

A leading German automotive manufacturer ran its entire workload automation on a legacy mainframe-based solution. Tens of thousands of automated jobs controlled business-critical processes across production, finance, administration and regulatory compliance.

Migrating to a modern SaaS solution was a strategic necessity —but highly complex: regulatory requirements of a publicly listed corporation, numerous stakeholders and approval processes, and zero tolerance for operational disruption.
