The opportunity

A system migration can carry old process problems forward.

When Finance processes and data are not part of the migration conversation, teams may miss the chance to reduce manual work, improve visibility, and make better use of new capabilities.

01

Manual work stays manual

Existing workarounds can be rebuilt into a new environment if they are not reviewed first.

02

Data remains hard to use

Inconsistent financial data can make reporting and analysis harder than they need to be.

03

Options feel unclear

Teams may know a change is needed without knowing which capabilities fit their goals.

04

Value is difficult to explain

Without a value-based view, it can be harder to prioritize improvements and build support.

A practical path forward

Understand what to improve before you commit to delivery.

A focused review helps your team connect process needs to modern SAP capabilities and make an informed next-step decision.

1

Review current processes

Assess selected Finance processes with an industry-leading framework and best-in-class AI to surface opportunities.

2

Explore new capabilities

See relevant capabilities and a value-based view of potential return on investment.

3

Plan a fixed-fee project

Review a proposal to deliver the agreed upgraded capability on a fixed-fee basis.

Common questions

Start with the questions your team is already asking.

Is this only for organizations already moving to S/4HANA?

No. The work can also support teams considering SAP Cloud ERP or modernizing financial data and processes alongside a broader transformation.

What does the initial review cover?

The review focuses on selected existing Finance processes. The scope can be discussed to fit your organization's priorities and transformation context.

How is AI used?

Best-in-class AI is used as part of the process review approach. The specific tools and use cases should be agreed with your organization based on its policies and needs.

Will we receive a guaranteed ROI?

No specific return is guaranteed. The review presents a value-based view of potential ROI to support your team's evaluation and prioritization.

What happens after the review?

You receive a presentation of relevant capabilities and potential value, followed by a fixed-fee project proposal to deliver the agreed upgraded capability.
