Powerlink upgrades to SAP S/4HANA with EPI-USE in just 10 weeks
Powerlink, Queensland’s high-voltage electricity network operator, partnered with EPI-USE to migrate its legacy ECC system to SAP S/4HANA, delivering improved functionality, user experience, and future readiness.
A fast, low-risk ERP upgrade for a critical infrastructure provider
Powerlink connects over 5 million Queenslanders and 172,000 businesses through its vast electricity transmission network.
