About Harting

HARTING Technology Group’s connector solutions set global standards, delivering unmatched precision and reliability for industrial systems. To remain future-proof and competitive, the company must constantly adapt in a variety of areas. Outdated processes, inconsistent tools, and incomplete documentation therefore needed to be replaced with professional process management.

In spring 2024, HARTING launched a transformation initiative with SAP Signavio solutions. Starting with IT, the initiative was implemented step by step. Clear responsibilities and unified structures now enable efficient collaboration between business and IT departments, providing access to a cohesive process landscape.This new reality also allows rapid, independent training for new employees. HARTING is now well -positioned to transition seamlessly to the SAP Cloud.
