HP Case Study: EADS

Overview EADS is Europe's largest aeronautical company and the second largest in the world. It was formed in July 2000 through the merger of Germany's DaimlerChrysler Aerospace AG, France's Aerospatiale Matra and Spain's CASA, and specialises in civil and military aviation, defence systems and services. In order to optimise purchasing terms and conditions across the EADS corporation, Corporate Sourcing started constructing an electronic catalogue platform. All the framework agreements negotiated and up-to-date electronic supplier catalogues were to be centralised within this platform. HP Consulting & Integration developed and implemented the ECC. The system is based on a catalogue management system, developed by Poet Supplier Solutions and is installed on HP ProLiant servers.
