D&H is a 106-year-old, employee-owned IT distributor shifting its operational backbone from legacy SAP to cloud-native infrastructure. The tech stack reveals a company mid-migration: heavy SAP ERP adoption (S/4HANA, Commerce Cloud, BTP, Fiori) paired with modern data-layer tools (Elasticsearch, MongoDB, Redis) and API-first architecture. Hiring velocity is decelerating across sales and ops roles, while the active project list signals internal focus on partner enablement (onboarding, cloud transformation, SMB GTM) — not product innovation. Pain points center on sales breadth, revenue targets, and partner migration, suggesting the distributor is working to retain and scale its reseller base amid cloud adoption pressure.
