Cole Haan completes global SAP S/4HANA transformation in record 18 months

  • Yesterday, Cole Haan announced completion of a global SAP S/4HANA migration across North America, Europe, and Asia, finishing the complex transformation in just 18 months with Applexus Technologies.

  • At the center of the migration was CeleRITE, an AI-powered platform from Applexus that analyzed legacy code, interfaces, and data to establish a modern cloud-based enterprise data platform.
  • Tom Linko, CFO and Executive Vice President, Global Operations at Cole Haan, said: "Applexus has been a valuable partner in helping us achieve this transformation." The migration occurred without disrupting business operations.
  • The new global system supports wholesale, retail, and digital operations, providing a scalable foundation for growth for the American lifestyle brand, which operates in more than 100 countries.
