An SAP EWM Logistics Hub in 3 Months: HTI Equips Its Oppeano Site
with HRC Warehouse
A new site, a new WMS, and operators unfamiliar with SAP: the global leader in mountain technology went live with Oppeano in three months using SAP EWM and HRC Warehouse, without waiting for its migration to S/4HANA.

Oppeano, the Group's flagship automation site
As a global leader in mountain technologies (LEITNER, POMA, PRINOTH, etc.), HTI has 21 production sites, 108 subsidiaries, and €1.4 billion in revenue.To manage its service operations and process more orders, LEITNER opens the Oppeano facility in Italy in 2024. The goal is to make it a showcase for the group’s logistics automation.
A WMS built for growth, ready to use from day one
Since the group is already running on SAP ECC 6, SAP EWM is the obvious choice as the WMS platform. The challenge now is to make it operational on the ground—and quickly.

The power of SAP EWM, without the complexity of standard RF
Rather than developing and maintaining its own Fiori apps, HTI opts for off-the-shelf applications. The benefit:
-
SAP EWM is available today, running on a decentralized S/4HANA environment, without having to wait for the ERP migration.
-
A mobile user experience superior to SAP’s standard RF.
-
Operators who can use the system without any SAP knowledge.
-
Quality integrated into the workflow via the QM module.
3 months from design to deployment

A warehouse you can manage without being an SAP expert
- Autonomous operators, even without SAP experience.
- Real-time inventory tracking, streamlined inbound and outbound flows.
- A single source of data for the warehouse.
- A WMS model ready to be replicated at other sites.
"The implementation of a decentralized SAP EWM solution on SAP S/4HANA, combined with the HRC Warehouse solution, allows us to benefit from intuitive, reliable, and user-friendly warehouse management, while confidently preparing for the future migration of our system to SAP S/4HANA."
