Integration & applications

SAP

Data readiness, integration planning and migration assurance.

Capability in business terms

Why this capability matters

ERP change crosses finance, operations and technology. The technical plan fails without the business reconciliation and ownership plan beside it.

What we typically scope

Data readiness, integration planning, migration assurance, interface design, cutover support.

How we approach the work

Business acceptance defined first. Technical sequence second.

Work we take on

Example engagement — illustrative. Typical scopes of work, not named client case studies.

Data readiness ahead of S/4

Why it happens
An S/4 programme is scheduled and master data quality has never been measured.
How we work it
Profile customer, vendor, material and finance master data for completeness, duplication and validity; quantify remediation effort by object; assign business ownership per object; establish cleansing ahead of the programme.
What you end up with
A quantified readiness position per data object, an owner for each, and remediation started before the programme depends on it.

Interfaces around a new core

Why it happens
Dozens of satellite systems integrate with the legacy ERP and nobody has a complete list.
How we work it
Discover interfaces from middleware, database and network evidence rather than documentation; classify by criticality and pattern; design the target integration architecture; identify what can be retired with the legacy core.
What you end up with
A complete inventory with criticality, a target architecture, and a retirement list that reduces scope.

Reconciliation the finance team will sign

Why it happens
Finance is being asked to accept a migrated ledger and has no basis to do so.
How we work it
Build reconciliation at trial-balance, sub-ledger and document level; agree tolerance thresholds with finance in advance; produce reports in the format finance already reviews; run at each mock cutover.
What you end up with
Reconciliation reports finance recognises and signs, with tolerances agreed before the numbers appear.

Cutover rehearsal

Why it happens
Go-live is in eight weeks and the cutover plan has never been executed end to end.
How we work it
Build a timed cutover runbook with owners and dependencies, execute a full mock including reconciliation and rollback decision points, measure actual elapsed time against the window, revise.
What you end up with
A rehearsed runbook with real timings, known failure points, and a rollback decision rule agreed in advance.

Extending without modifying the core

Why it happens
Business requirements are driving pressure to modify standard objects, threatening upgradeability.
How we work it
Assess each requirement for a standard-configuration answer first, design side-by-side extensions where genuinely needed, document every deviation with its rationale and upgrade impact.
What you end up with
A clean core with extensions documented and their upgrade impact recorded rather than discovered later.
