Upgrading a 20-year-old SAP ECC landscape to SAP S/4HANA while reducing customisation debt, protecting business continuity, and unlocking efficiency across the commercial and physical supply chain.
The client's reliance on a 20-year-old SAP ECC interface resulted in a growing burden of maintenance costs and operational instability, threatening business continuity. The aging ERP system also presented a significant barrier to future growth ambitions.
The result was an ERP landscape that carried more risk than it carried value.
Two decades of customisation had turned the ERP into an operational risk rather than an advantage.
We delivered clarity and direction by deploying a skilled, experienced team to lead the commercial and physical supply chain business stream during the client's upgrade from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA, a comprehensive, end-to-end transition designed for stability and growth.
Foundational and detailed design processes facilitated in close collaboration with business stakeholders.
Strategically reduced customisation (RICEFW) requests, promoting standard SAP S/4HANA functionality.
Enhanced and optimised business processes that maximised return on investment.
Extensive change management and training initiatives to embed new ways of working.
Robust system testing with key business users, validating the design principles throughout.
A comprehensive cut-over strategy backed by robust business continuity protocols.
A modern, standard-led S/4HANA platform replaced two decades of accumulated customisation.
The upgrade delivered measurable improvements across process efficiency, reporting speed, data compliance and system integration.
