The German government needed a fast and secure way to coordinate the repatriation of its citizens stranded abroad due to the COVID-19 pandemic. SAP built an application on SAP Cloud Platform in less than 24 hours that allowed the government to efficiently manage the return of over 230,000 people from around the world. The new cloud solution proved scalable and helped ensure citizens could safely return home quickly. Previously the government's solution was not equipped to handle the demands of a pandemic situation.
