Media SAP Customer Experience Management Case Studies

Client: Regional newspaper chain with 1,800 employees operating 12 publications across the US Midwest, facing declining print subscriptions and fragmented digital audience data.

Challenge: Media SAP Customer Experience Management was critical as the company's legacy CRM held 890,000 subscriber records with 34% data duplication across 4 regional instances.

Solution: Smartbrain.io deployed a team of 2 SAP architects and 5 developers over 14 weeks. The project included SAP Customer Data Cloud implementation for unified identity management, SAP Marketing Cloud for audience segmentation, and SAP Commerce Cloud for subscription management. Data migration used SAP Migration Cockpit with custom deduplication rules. Integration with existing Adobe Experience Manager and Oracle ERP completed via SAP BTP Integration Suite.

Results: Month-end reconciliation reduced from 12 days to 1.5 days. Data duplication eliminated to 0.3% across 1.2M consolidated subscriber records.
