Fire & Rescue New South Wales and partner agencies consolidated 80-90 legacy systems into a single SAP Business Suite instance on HANA. The migration reduced database size from 750 GB to 220 GB and cut report generation from one day to real time. The agencies now pursue predictive risk modeling through Project Miinder and centralized asset management for 500,000 equipment items and 9,000 vehicles.
