Company

Lightning Migration, Inc was founded in 2022 as a spin-off of the successful SAP consulting firm, CSG Software.
Based in Portland, Oregon, and established in 2000, CSGS created best-in-practice supply chain methods for implementing SAP technology across multiple industries.

With past clients like Nike, VF, and Under Amour, along with Microsoft, Intel and Hewlett Packard, we take a special interest in the overlap and growth of connected Digital Fashion. Throughout the last 25 years we have worked heavily on developing strategies for high ROI technology programs in Fashion and Retail.

And our paramount focus is always an outcome that serves the client at the highest level.

Our Lightning Team is comprised of senior Architects, Designers and Advisors who focus on DATA as a strategic enterprise initiative. Creating collaboration and alignment in the Digital Transformation journey to S/4HANA requires leadership and experience. And the move to Cloud is a Migration of not just technology, but the future digital experience of an entire Business.

Data is the Power. This is our Passion. This is our Practice.
