Manage complex data easily

Every year, Kemper creates a new product catalog that is published in 8 languages. The Web2Print function with PIM integration was intended to facilitate the easy creation of the multilingual comprehensive catalog. Additionally, a technical relaunch was required to optimize infrastructure and backend for modernization purposes. The upgrade involved transitioning from Pimcore 2.3 to version 5 initially, with further stages planned to reach the latest major version.

Solution

Central data hub for digital processes

The entire Web2Print process was restructured and rebuilt by anyMOTION. The new catalog and individual data sheets are now generated using PDF-Reactor, a powerful software for converting HTML and XML content into high-quality PDF documents. This ensures that the new catalog and individual data sheets are consistently and professionally designed. Product data management in the PIM allows for centralized maintenance of products in all languages. The avoidance of data silos, as aimed for, was crucial to achieving efficient and integrated data management. To minimize manual transfer processes, migration scripts were also developed for importing data from the ERP.

The time required for creation has been significantly reduced, and each catalog version is characterized by consistent quality and precision, strengthening the international perception of the Kemper brand as reliable and professional. The automated data import from the ERP to PIMCORE ensures updated prices and maintains uniform, current systems without data loss.
