SAP Transformation process
Rise with SAP and the SAP Cloud
The Cloud has been an integral part of the modern IT world for several years now. On the one hand, the clever relocation of workload to the cloud offers great potential to digitalize and modernize processes in order to stand out from the competition. On the other hand, there are still reservations regarding data integrity. Moving from an on-premise data center to the cloud alone does not usually generate any major synergies either. We can advise you on this path and work with you to optimize your SAP landscape.
SAP S/4HANA Best Practices
BUSINESSTRANSIT® for changes in your company structure
What is the best way to successfully migrate an SAP system from one platform to another? From the experience of many carve-in/carve-out projects, we have developed a process model that ensures that such a move can be successful. There is one best solution.
Our SAP experience shows: four phases and one goal for the perfect move
The perfect choreography is crucial: whether it’s a complete relocation of existing IT landscapes or a platform change. The interaction of all those involved is crucial for success.
The SPIRIT/21 four-phase model was developed from the experience of many SAP transition projects. It ensures that the migration of an SAP system runs as smoothly as possible, so that your employees can work with the system undisturbed before, during and after the migration phase.
Phase 1: Analysis
In the analysis phase, experienced SPIRIT/21 experts work with you to determine the scope of the project: Where are there critical points, where are dependencies that need to be taken into account? In a joint workshop, all information relevant to the move is reviewed once again.
Phase 2: Planning and preparation
The move methodology is now defined. Interdependent systems are grouped together in move clusters. And the infrastructure for the move is being set up. Where does the project stand? Are there any delays? Our storybooks provide full transparency on the progress of the project - they are structured in a comprehensible way based on proven SPIRIT/21 processes.
Phase 3: Implementation
The SPIRIT/21 transition manager controls the interaction between the individual departments. Experienced SPIRIT/21 specialists, project managers and architects integrate the relocated systems into the new system landscape. They work hand-in-hand. There is a constant target/actual comparison, which is recorded in the storybooks.
Phase 4: Conclusion
In the final phase, the relocation infrastructure is dismantled and old systems that are no longer required are switched off. The system documentation and operating documents are adapted so that work can continue seamlessly in the new IT landscape. Proper relocation status is verified and documented. Whether medium-sized companies or international corporations, the SPIRIT/21 four-phase model creates the security for a smooth transition.

SAP S/4HANA is a modern ERP solution that helps companies optimize their business processes and meet the challenges of digital transformation. This software from SAP offers powerful in-memory database technology that enables real-time analysis, fast transactions and simplified data modeling.
By using SAP S/4HANA, companies can benefit from a user-friendly interface and gain immediate insights into their business processes. The software is available as both an on-premise and cloud solution and integrates next-generation technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning and the Internet of Things (IoT).
With SAP S/4HANA, companies can increase their efficiency, flexibility and competitiveness by optimizing their business processes and preparing for innovative business scenarios. This ERP solution is designed to help companies succeed in an increasingly digitalized world.
SAP S/4HANA offers numerous advantages for companies. By using in-memory technology, it enables real-time analyses and accelerates the processing of large volumes of data. As a result, decisions can be made more quickly and efficiency increased.
SAP S/4HANA also offers an improved user interface and intuitive operation. Users can access relevant information and complete their tasks more easily and quickly. This leads to increased productivity and employee satisfaction.
Another advantage of SAP S/4HANA is the integration of different business processes. By bringing together finance, sales, purchasing, production and other areas in a single platform, companies can optimize their processes and improve collaboration between departments.
In summary, the introduction of SAP S/4HANA helps companies to optimize their processes, increase productivity and make informed decisions based on real-time data.
SAP S/4HANA is the further development of SAP ERP and brings with it some significant differences. First and foremost is the use of in-memory database technology, which enables real-time analyses. This means that large volumes of data can be processed at lightning speed.
Another important point is the simplified data model of S/4HANA. It reduces redundancies and simplifies data processing, resulting in greater efficiency. The revised user interface makes operation more intuitive and user-friendly.
An important aspect for many companies is the cloud option of S/4HANA. It can be used both on-premise and in the cloud, which offers flexibility and scalability.
