Atos drives Alsea’s SAP modernization with a strategic migration to SAP RISE on AWS
Atos, a global leader in digital transformation powered by artificial intelligence and recognized for its expertise in highly complex projects, announces today it has been selected by Alsea—one of the largest restaurant operators in Latin America and Europe, with more than 4,000 establishments in 11 countries and international brands such as Starbucks, Domino’s Pizza and Vips—to support its SAP modernization strategy.
Atos supported Alsea throughout this journey, leading a highly complex migration to SAP RISE that has strengthened the group’s operational agility and accelerated its digital transformation. As a result, Alsea now benefits from a more resilient, future-ready platform designed to support continued growth.
To drive growth, enhance operational resilience and unlock new digital capabilities, Alsea launched a comprehensive program combining the migration, upgrade and technical adaptation of its SAP environments. The project involved transitioning from the Tres Cantos data center in Madrid to SAP RISE on AWS, with deployments in Virginia and Texas in the United States.

Large-scale migration and modernization
Beyond the infrastructure migration, the project included deep technical and functional optimization of Alsea’s SAP systems. More than 1,200 business processes were reviewed and refined, 5,000 ABAP programs were adapted to ensure compatibility and performance in the new environment, and 72 critical interfaces were successfully migrated and integrated.
Greater agility, innovation and growth capacity
Thanks to this transformation, Alsea now operates on a more agile and scalable platform capable of supporting its expansion and enabling new digital initiatives. The new architecture provides a solid foundation for the progressive adoption of advanced cloud services and emerging digital capabilities, allowing Alsea to integrate innovation in line with evolving business needs.
Modernizing the SAP environment has also improved overall operational efficiency, stability and adaptability, equipping the organization to address future growth challenges with confidence. Extensive testing validated the solution’s ability to guarantee business continuity in the event of natural disasters, cyberattacks or hardware failures, thereby minimizing potential financial and reputational risks.
A strengthened strategic partnership
This project further consolidates the strategic relationship between Alsea and Atos, reaffirming Atos’ commitment to supporting clients through secure, efficient and business-driven digital transformation initiatives. With SAP RISE on AWS, Alsea now benefits from a modern, resilient technology foundation that will enable the continuous evolution of its systems and long-term value creation.
Gabriel Muñoz, Head of SAP at Atos Iberia, said: “We are delighted to have supported Alsea in this ambitious modernization journey, helping to build a more agile, resilient and future-ready technology platform. This project reflects our commitment to operational excellence and to enabling our clients to drive efficiency, innovation and sustainable growth through digital transformation.”
