Businesses are being pushed to the brink by dynamic market forces that their legacy systems simply can’t handle. The mandates of staying competitive and profitable are showing our customers that they need to become more agile, harness their data into insights, and rethink their current business processes. The pressure to support modern business needs for real-time, actionable insight and process agility increases every single day. Companies may choose to wait but the market will not.
SAP customers know they need the next generation of enterprise resources planning (ERP) systems. This is the reason SAP is seeing a clear SAP S/4HANA Movement from our customer base. The SAP S/4HANA Movement initiative comprises an optimized portfolio of tools, programs, content, and services that enable customers to move to SAP S/4HANA, our flagship intelligent ERP, with minimum disruption and risk. With SAP S/4HANA, customers can implement a more agile IT landscape, dramatically reduce TCO, and support continuous innovation. SAP offers a consistent solution in any environment — cloud, on premise, or hybrid — allowing customers to benefit in any scenario or combination that is right for them.
SAP S/4HANA Adoption Starter Engagement also includes the following:
- SAP Readiness Check: This is the tool for those wanting to convert an existing SAP ERP Central Component 6 system to SAP S/4HANA. Use SAP Readiness Check to learn the technical requirements and actions needed to convert your system to SAP S/4HANA. You can feel confident in knowing that we already have more than 1,600 CIOs engaged and preparing the final stage for their move to SAP S/4HANA using this tool.
- SAP Transformation Navigator: This tool builds your SAP S/4HANA roadmap based on your SAP landscape so you can see exactly what components are involved when you make the move. Over 15,000 unique customer roadmaps have been produced, signaling strong interest from prospects and existing customers.
The result is an executive-ready transformation plan that covers business, technical, and transformation views. In fact, SAP currently have 20 German users on this rollout. In addition, SAP offerings from the SAP Digital Business Services can help make the transition a smooth one. These support and services from SAP Digital Business Services include:
- SAP Value Assurance, which helps ensure efficiency and risk reduction for all project phases via service packages that support SAP S/4HANA deployment when a customer or system integration partner leads the project — from planning and design to implementation or migration and innovation.
- SAP Advanced Deployment, which enables the fast and safe adoption of the next-generation digital core by providing customers with access to a turnkey, SAP-led implementation option to simply and systematically deploy SAP S/4HANA.
- SAP Model Company, which provides a preconfigured, ready-to-run reference solution with business content and engineered services for multiple industries and lines of business, allowing customers to secure the critical foundation for the success of their transformational program.
