Frankfurt, March 3, 2026 – Axians, the ICT brand of VINCI Energies, is focusing on a specific area for SAP customers seeking greater digital sovereignty in Germany and Europe : The long-standing SAP Gold Partner is publishing a comprehensive catalog of 24 specialized and field-tested SAP add-on solutions that empower companies and public authorities to confidently digitize sovereign tasks and critical business processes . Through various SAP projects in the critical infrastructure sector – from the energy industry to the aerospace and defense industries – Axians is strategically expanding its market position in Germany, Austria, and the CEE region.
Axians supports companies in modernizing their SAP landscapes – from consulting and complex implementations to cloud migration. With industry expertise, a local presence in numerous European countries, and in-depth know-how in SAP solutions, the company facilitates the seamless transition from legacy systems to modern ERP environments.
The Axians SAP add-on portfolio, comprising 24 proprietary applications, complements SAP-based solutions for specific and critical application areas – from automated sanctions control and radioactive waste management to data-driven process and compliance solutions for the defense industry. Developed in five different countries, the solutions cover a range of business processes: from planning and scheduling to warehousing, logistics and supply chain, compliance and risk management, finance and accounting automation, data and document management, and HR and workforce management.
“Digital sovereignty encompasses more than just the answer to the question of where data is physically stored,” emphasizes Jens Beier, Managing Director CEE ICT at Axians. “It’s about empowering customers to consciously, securely, and legally manage critical processes – regardless of whether they are operated in their own data centers or in a cloud environment. Our SAP add-ons, combined with our technical excellence and understanding of regulatory requirements, make us the partner for companies and public authorities for whom sovereignty, security, and compliance are non-negotiable.”
Wide range of SAP add-ons
The Axians solution Sanction List Control is currently in particularly high demand, having already been implemented by more than 20 companies since 2024. The solution automatically checks business partners and transactions and compares them against public sanctions lists. This ensures compliance with national and international sanctions regulations and EU regulations. Seamless integration with SAP R/3 and SAP S/4HANA enables real-time validations or bulk checks – without the need for additional external services.
“Manual sanctions list checks are time-consuming, error-prone, and often don’t provide sufficient audit security,” explains Jens Beier. “Our scanner significantly reduces the risk of penalties and legal consequences for trading with sanctioned companies. At the same time, automated logging ensures complete documentation.”
Another compliance tool is A-Tax: This VAT ID validation solution for business partners and transaction documents ensures compliance with EU, Austrian, and German tax regulations for intra-Community supplies. The add-on reduces the risk of incorrect tax postings and relieves the burden on employees through seamless integration into the customer workflow.
Customer projects underline Axians’ expertise in the energy and defense sectors
In the energy sector, Axians implemented one of the most comprehensive SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud deployments in Europe for an energy producer in Slovakia. The company migrated from an on-premise system to SAP Cloud ERP Private without interrupting operations. Two specialized Axians add-ons ensure the highest security standards: Radioactive Waste Management for the seamless documentation of radioactive waste in accordance with strict regulations, and Work Clearance Management Mobile for safe maintenance work even without a network connection. The result is faster core processes, reduced system administration costs, and an infrastructure ready for new AI-driven innovations.
Axians has also established itself in the defense sector as a partner for process-oriented SAP consulting and implementation in critical infrastructures. Its expertise ranges from complex ERP transformations and CRM and HR projects to specialized add-on solutions for security and defense companies.
A leading German manufacturer in this sector has already implemented SAP Sales Cloud for sales, and is currently implementing SAP SuccessFactors for human resources management. The collaboration also focuses on other areas such as cybersecurity, finance, production, and innovation.
A German defense technology company uses the Axians NEO Suite product for technical service and maintenance. Another leading European manufacturer of drive systems for vehicles, ships, and industry relies on Axians solutions for the digitalization of financial planning and budgeting. Other Axians customers include a Ministry of Defense and a cyber defense center in Eastern Europe, as well as other organizations in the sector in Germany.
With these use cases in the area of critical infrastructure and data, Axians is strengthening its position as a partner for digital sovereignty. Axians supports interested parties in evaluating suitable solutions and accompanies implementation with its expanded SAP consulting team. In parallel, the company continues to develop further add-ons for critical infrastructure and is continuously expanding its portfolio. The complete catalog of SAP extensions is available now. In September 2026, Axians will present its solutions for critical infrastructure and the defense sector as an exhibitor at the Euro Defence Expo in Essen.
