The Theme Modules of the Day - Everything Interlocks “End-to-End”

Business Transformation Center

The control centre for your transformation: understanding dependencies, prioritizing projects, managing releases. From the impact analysis to the implementable plan - transparent and audit-proof.

SAP Transformations

Carve-outs, harmonization, S/4 program or greenfield: governance, cutover strategies, clean-core principles and change management - practical and low-risk.

SAP Business Data Cloud

The database for speed and trust: Standardize data from SAP & non-SAP, model it semantically and make it available for reporting, planning and AI - scalable and secure.

SAP Business AI

AI that works: Case solutions for service, finance, supply chain and HR as well as guardrails, roles and metrics for responsible deployment.

SAP Cloud ERP

Public, private or two-tier? Architectural decisions, extension models to BTP, test automation and operating models - for a sustainable clean core.

SAP Customer Experience (CX)

From the first contact to loyalty: personalized journeys, real-time segments, commerce accelerators and integration into ERP - measurable at the end in the shopping cart.

RISE & GROW AMS

Application management for everyday life in the cloud: SLAs, automation, FinOps/GreenOps, continuous process improvement - so that innovation becomes routine.

Your Results at the End of the Day
