LAPP is a typical hidden champion of “German Mittelstand”, expanding their family business of 3 generations from Stuttgart across the globe with delivering highest quality cable and connectivity solutions for electric cars to automated production sites. Traditionally, their product portfolio was sent to customers as a large book, as known from well-known mail order companies. Soon, they switched to offering a yearly updated CD to send out, but… Alexander Lapp, Senior Manager Digitalization & e-Business had a different future in mind for the traditional manufacturing company: buzzwords such as “multi channel” and “customer journey” needed to be forged into a strategy for e-Business. Management understood the importance of Digital Identity and jumpstarted a CIAM initiative, alongside the global deployment of a new consolidated e-Service architecture.
Three years later, thousands of customer identities have been transferred to a fully automated and integrated CIAM solution across a dozen shop instances worldwide. The session investigates the identity pitfalls and data privacy reefs to avoid in order to transform your CIAM project into a lever for your Digitalization Program!
