SAP transformations harbour risks.

We bring structure and strategy into the chaos.

For companies, SAP transformations can be complex, risky and often come with unexpected challenges. A lack of strategy, limited resources, dependency on partners for implementation and unclear architectural decisions often lead to delays and risks.

We are intimately familiar with the challenges of SAP projects, which is why we can manage projects in a targeted way to success – with tried and tested methods, profound expertise and a practical approach. This is how we bring structure and strategy into the chaos.

 

Strategic, independent, efficient.

Frequently asked questions about SAP consulting

No. We do not directly implement SAP systems.  Instead we use strategic project management, quality assurance and architecture consulting to make sure your SAP transformation is successful.

We are independent consultants and not SAP resellers or system integrators. Our focus is on the management, optimisation and strategic alignment of SAP projects, not on sales or technical implementation.

If you are unsure whether your approach to transformation, your IT architecture or IT change management is efficient enough, we’ll support your with an individual evaluation and an independent assessment of your current strategy.

For SAP projects, many companies are heavily dependent on implementation partners. Independent advice such as Grant Thornton’s ensures that:

✔️ The strategy that is best for your company is developed, and not for the service provider. 
✔️ Risks are identified early and expensive bad decisions are avoided.
✔️ Projects run efficiently and without errors.

SAP HANA is a high-performance in-memory database from SAP that allows businesses to process large amounts of data in real time. In contrast to traditional databases, which store data on hard-drives, SAP HANA holds all the data in working memory (RAM). This makes analyses, calculations and processes extremely fast – ideal for modern business requirements.

The benefits of SAP HANA:
✔️ Real-time analyses – data are processed within seconds instead of hours.
✔️ High speed – fast transactions and inquiries for large amounts of data
✔️ Simplified IT landscape – a single data platform for analysis and transactions
✔️ Scalability & flexibility – cloud, hybrid or on-premises operations possible

SAP HANA is the basis for SAP S/4HANA, the next generation of ERP systems. Businesses modernising their SAP environment are increasingly relying on HANA to work in a faster, more agile and data-driven way.

Yes. SAP S/4HANA only runs on SAP HANA. Those still using older SAP ERP systems (e.g. SAP ECC) also need to move their database to SAP HANA when changing over to S/4HANA.

The time taken depends on various factors, such as the size of the business, migration approach and existing IT structures. Typically a complete S/4HANA transformation takes between 12 and 36 months. Being well prepared and strategic planning can shorten the time considerably.
