Accelerate SAP S/4HANA transformation with LeanIX

SAP S/4HANA transformation is a critical piece of an enterprise’s broader business and technology strategy. It’s a key aspect of digital transformation journeys yet also one of the biggest challenges within the SAP environment.

Due to the complexity and the high level of integration of SAP environments, the key success factors for a successful SAP S/4HANA journey are transparency of current SAP and non-SAP landscape and proper milestone planning.

Build effective architectural roadmaps to accelerate SAP S/4HANA transformation

Explore As-Is architecture and classify business capabilities

  • Capture and model Business Capabilities of the acquired organization
  • Map them to existing capabilities and derive a joint Business Capability map
  • Classify Business Capabilities with the Gartner Pace Layer method to align investments and resources

Model and compare migration scenarios

  • Create a complete view of all applications from both companies and analyze them by usage and cost metrics
  • Collect feedback from business stakeholders on the functional and technical fit of applications (i.e., application owners)
  • Gain understandings of application integrations and dependencies to evaluate change efforts

Use data to decide the right transformation strategy

  • Leverage LeanIX reports evaluating the applications by technical fit, functional fit, and lifecycle
  • Align on overall IT merging strategy: e.g., “best of both worlds” vs. “align on major platforms” vs. “the winner takes it all”
  • Apply the TIME model to define if applications should be tolerated (T), invested in (I), migrated (M), or eliminated (E)

Leverage SAP Signavio integration for process mapping

  • Identify successors for elimination and migration candidates
  • Document the future of Applications as impacts and set lifecycle dates accordingly
  • Compare different rationalization scenarios based on the modelled impacts

Create an execution roadmap

  • Create a transformation roadmap based on the chosen migration strategy and easily identify dependencies or conflicts
  • Communicate project milestones for main and sub-projects (e.g., roll-out plan, start dates, testing & validation timelines, test cut-overs, and go lives)
  • Track transformation progress to measure stages of completion and cost savings
  • Keep EA documentation up-to-date and automatically execute impacts after the completion of a project or plan
