  • In preparation of the IPO of their retail division, Lulu Group needed to divest two business units from the main system to two separate target systems
  • SNP ensured a smooth execution of the project ahead of time, within budget and with minimal downtime
  • Lulu Group subsequently selected SNP to spearhead their upcoming migration to SAP S/4HANA

HEIDELBERG, Germany and DUBAI, UAE, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SNP SE, a leading software provider for digital transformation, automated data migration, and data management in SAP environments, supported Lulu Group, the largest full-line retailer across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), with a crucial data transformation project in preparation of their IPO: The selective data migration and segregation of the UAE non-retail, India and Egypt business units and company codes from the main SAP ECC production system, migrating them into two separate target systems. The partners were able to complete this highly critical carveout endeavor two weeks ahead of schedule without any slippages to schedule or costs. Following the success of this crucial data migration project SNP has been selected as Lulu Group’s strategic partner of choice for their upcoming SAP S/4HANA transformation project.

Successful carveout enabling a successful IPO

Headquartered in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, Lulu Retail is the region’s largest full-line retailer with a strong omni-channel presence in the form of both physical stores and e-commerce. In their carveout venture, Lulu Retail and SNP had to tackle some challenges common to retail companies: large database size, time to market, speed and agility. Moreover, auditable, verifiable data segregation and data validation were of the essence with regard to the nearing IPO of Lulu Retail. The successful execution of the project can be attributed to the collaborative team efforts between Lulu, SNP, AWS & Redington, and the Bluefield approach for selective data migration powered by SNP’s CrystalBridge software. Automating and accelerating multiple complex projects resulted in just one single go-live with a minimized downtime of less than 48 hours at minimal cost and risk. The software automation approach delivered business benefits right away: faster return on investment (ROI), increased business continuity, agility, lower total cost of ownership, improved governance and compliance. Furthermore, Lulu Retail were able to successfully execute their IPO plans in the UAE market.

Anish Mohamed, Group CIO at Lulu says: “SNP has demonstrated the ability to be a highly reliable SAP transformation partner. The volume of this selective data migration amounted to about 20% of the 6 terabytes sized database. Our joint success fueled our trust in the expertise of SNP to cope with very complex data transformations and large data volumes in a timely manner. This makes us even more excited about tackling the move to SAP S/4HANA together and we are already planning this upcoming project.”

Ravi Mahalingam, Managing Director of SNP Middle East, adds: “We support companies like Lulu in tackling both current and future challenges by optimizing their IT systems and business processes, helping them strengthen their market position. Our software platform ensured a fast, secure transformation journey for Lulu, from system analysis to seamless data migration and management.”
