In
January 2006, Schenker announced the $2BN acquisition of Bax Global. Over the coming
months in over 100 countries across the world, the integration of these two large
organisations commenced. In Ireland, Schenker/Bax engaged the services of Casseo
Ltd to project manage critical elements of this integration. The brief
included; IT Application integration, Network integration; IT Infrastructure upgrade and
IT organisation design & recruitment. Casseo Ltd
played a vital role in each element of their brief, quickly familiarising themselves with
the organisation locally and globally, building up positive and constructive working
relationships with key staff. Over a nine month period through the mix of
extensive experience, hard work, determination and the use of professional project
management tools, Casseo Ltd made a huge contribution to the
successful integration of Schenker/Bax in Ireland. Throughout the project, Casseo
Ltd provided regular progress reports to the project team and provided
direct and clear advice on all occasions. Our decision to engage Casseo
Ltd was recognised as a huge success, locally in Ireland and at our global
HQ in Germany.
