Life Sciences Alliance
SAP S/4HANA implementations and transformations in the pharmaceutical and medical technology industries require a broad range of competencies – from SAP implementation and system integration to operations, quality and GxP compliance.
The Life Sciences Alliance bundles exactly these capabilities in an integrated approach. Together with the All for One Group and INFORMATICS Life Sciences GmbH, DHC supports companies in implementing SAP S/4HANA programs efficiently, scalably and in a regulatory-compliant manner.
You receive transformation, implementation and validation from a single source – coordinated, pragmatic and specifically tailored to the requirements of regulated industries.

INFORMATICS LIFE SCIENCES
Experienced IT partner for the process industry with focus on SAP S/4HANA. Strong competence in process analysis, implementation and operations in regulated and validation-required environments.
The VITAL Process Model
The foundation of collaboration within the Life Sciences Alliance is the jointly developed VITAL process model.
VITAL stands for a validated and innovative transformation approach specifically developed for regulated industries such as pharma and medical technology. Unlike traditional SAP projects, transformation and validation are consistently implemented in an integrated manner.
This means:
The transition to SAP S/4HANA and computer system validation run hand in hand from the very beginning. Validation is not carried out subsequently, but is an integral part of the entire transformation.
This allows:
- Project risks to be significantly reduced
- Audit requirements to be considered early
- SAP transformations to be implemented more efficiently and stably
