The CTSC is a joint SAP/Microsoft team which addresses all sorts of interoperability questions between the products of both companies. It was established in 2003 by me and since then drives interoperability in many ways: Events, customer workshops, technical and non-technical documents as well as a dedicated book about the topic.

Within the development team for Microsoft platforms (Windows Server and SQL Server) at SAP in Walldorf I was the Product Manager. In that role I drove several platform topics (high-availability solutions, introduction of Windows 64-Bit on Intel Itanium). In addition I introduced many new Microsoft products and technologies into SAP development and acted as a liaison person between the two companies.

At SAP Australia in Melbourne I participated and contributed to the massive growth at that time. In my role as an R/2 Technology Consultant I acted as a liaison person between SAP development and a large telecom company in one of the largest R/2 implementations. From there I transitioned into multiple R/3 projects in Australia and New Zealand and eventually managed the group of Technology Consultant at SAP Melbourne.
