About Basis Technologies

Basis Technologies is founded in Melbourne, Australia and launches the first version of its flagship change and release management product, then named Transport Express. From the beginning, the company focused on automation engineered specifically for SAP. As the global adoption of SAP grew, so did the need for automation technology that would help organizations reap the benefits and meet the challenges that come with this business-critical software.

Company headquarters are moved from Melbourne, Australia and established in London, UK as Basis Technologies International Ltd. The company continues to focus on enabling enterprises to extract more value from their SAP systems through automation that massively reduces the amount of manual effort, and therefore risk of errors and downtime, involved in delivery of SAP change.

Basis Technologies is named as an official SAP partner, confirming its deep technical expertise and understanding of SAP environments. As adoption of the company’s SAP automation technology continues to grow, Transport Express also becomes SAP-certified.

Basis Technologies expands its operations to the US, opening offices in Philadelphia, PA. The company later also opens offices in NYC and Vancouver, British Columbia.

As companies increasingly seek ways to improve the speed and efficiency with which they deliver change to the business, Basis Technologies introduces its DevOps Toolset, a suite of automation tools centered around Transport Expresso – an updated iteration of Transport Express – that enables businesses running SAP to move to continuous development and delivery. The company also shifts to a subscription-based licensing model to better meet customer needs.

The company announces establishment of a new German subsidiary, headquartered in Berlin, Germany. The location enables Basis Technologies to support the growing demand for SAP automation in mainland Europe, including German-speaking countries.

In response to customer feedback, the core elements of the DevOps Toolset are brought together into a single new product named ActiveControl that delivers even greater value. ActiveControl combines a full suite of automation features into one easy-to-understand new product that provides the most powerful, effective way to automate SAP change control, support agile development and enable adoption of DevOps for SAP.

Basis Technologies further expands its market-leading SAP automation solutions with the introduction of Testimony, a ground-breaking new product that employs Robotic Test Automation to transform SAP regression testing. Unlike any other testing approach, Testimony eliminates the need for manual test scripting and maintenance, helping companies achieve high-quality, low risk delivery of SAP change.

Basis Technologies relocates its North American Headquarters from Vancouver, British Columbia to Dallas, Texas. As the largest SAP market in the world, the company makes a strategic decision to expand its US focus and establish centrally-located sales, consulting, marketing and support operations.

Basis Technologies now offers the only complete automated DevOps and Testing platform engineered for SAP. The company’s ActiveControl and Testimony products offer a solution unlike anything on the market, massively reducing the time and effort needed to achieve agile SAP delivery.

The company returns to where it all began in 1997 by opening new offices in Sydney, Australia. These offices support operations in APJ, including Australia, New Zealand, China, Singapore, India, and Japan.

Basis Technologies’ market-leading automation products are certified as ABAP add-ons for SAP S/4HANA and Netweaver. Enterprises can adopt ActiveControl and Testimony with the SAP seal of approval, confident that they have demonstrated the ability to integrate smoothly with SAP solutions and will deliver value. Certified solutions are listed in SAP’s online directory.

Scottish Equity Partners, one of Europe’s leading technology growth equity firms, invests $25 million in Basis Technologies. The company has experienced significant growth in recent years and investment from SEP enables the acceleration of product development and increased adoption of its industry-leading software through expansion of global sales and partnership capabilities.

ActiveControl is certified for use in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll (ECP) systems. ECP users can now employ ActiveControl to help them move faster, minimize risk and ensure full audit compliance when making changes to critical payroll systems on which employee livelihoods depend.
