Pierwsza awaria cię nie pogrąży, ale kolejna prawdopodobnie już tak - takie wnioski płyną z badania z udziałem CIO, które CIONET przeprowadził w Polsce w 2024 roku. Utrzymanie ciągłości biznesu pozostaje najważniejszym zadaniem liderów IT. Awarie platform technologicznych przekładają się na ogromne straty – od utraty przychodów i reputacji po kary nakładane przez organy kontrolne, w tym UODO, KNF czy UKE. Systemy analityczne i panele kontrolne zapewniają wgląd w wiele procesów, często pozostawiają jednak „martwe punkty” - obszary, w których kryją się niewidoczne problemy, nieefektywności lub ryzyka. Zapraszamy na ekskluzywne spotkanie Digital Blind Spots, organizowane z myślą o liderach technologii z różnych branż. Będziemy rozmawiać o doświadczeniach i wyzwaniach związanym z monitorowaniem, zabezpieczaniem i optymalizacją ekosystemów technologicznych.

In der Tech-Industrie ist Wandel die einzige Konstante – Themen kommen und gehen im Zwei-Wochen-Takt. Auch Enterprises merken das: Die Innovationszyklen sind schneller, der Druck zur Umsetzung höher. Generative KI ist inzwischen überall angekommen – sei es in Produkten, Prozessen oder mindestens als smarter Bot im Kundenservice. Doch nach der anfänglichen Begeisterung beginnt nun die Phase der Realität: Intelligenz im Enterprise braucht mehr als gute Ideen – es braucht Governance, Datenqualität und Wartung.

Etex modernizes its IT foundation for a new era of sustainable innovation
Cognizant and SAP partnered to migrate a business-critical SAP ECC environment to S/4HANA to ready Etex for future transformation and innovation.
A target of 12 months was set for the whole environment to go live on S/4HANA. Throughout, Cognizant, Etex and SAP worked in partnership to ensure a smooth and successful project delivery with all parties working together to anticipate, address and resolve any issues.
The modernization involved first developing a thorough understanding of the SAP environment. A full system readiness analysis was conducted to understand which aspects of the environment would need remediation prior to the move. A conversion plan for the migration was then created, using best-practice processes and frameworks.
To de-risk the project, a six-cycle migration was planned. The cycles started with the sandbox environment, being the lowest-risk, and progressed through to the production environment. Each cycle involved Etex, Cognizant and SAP working together to convert to S/4HANA, implement mandatory simplification items, make custom code corrections and migrate the data. The learnings from each cycle were applied in subsequent cycles, in readiness for seamless cut-over and go live.
As part of our end-to-end approach, Cognizant also implemented a best-practice test management strategy that Etex can use for future business transformation projects.
All six cycles were completed as planned, with Etex going live on S/4HANA in a single weekend at the end of the <12-month period.
The smooth, on-time migration to S/4HANA allowed Etex to start benefiting from SAP S/4HANA features in a little over a year—a rapid timeframe for a full modernization of a complex legacy SAP ECC environment. Specific outcomes achieved to date include:
Throughout, the collaborative effort between Etex, SAP, and Cognizant facilitated coordination and ongoing external benchmarking. This has been fundamental for the successful execution and establishment of the groundwork for the digital transformation journey.

CIOFEST 2025 - Introduction to the International Panel
The evolution of AI is comparable to that of IT, but it’s happening much faster. As with IT in its early days, AI is becoming deeply embedded in almost every business function. Amara’s Law also applies here: we tend to overestimate AI’s short-term effects and underestimate its long-term impact. This makes it essential to embed AI across your company in a structured way.
