What Generic Review Misses

Where SAP programmes actually go wrong

01

The 2027 deadline gets treated as a soft target

SAP's mainstream maintenance window for ECC/R3 ends December 31, 2027. We've reviewed programmes that budgeted the migration like it was optional. A platform-certified reviewer catches that assumption in week one, not month eighteen.

02

Brownfield, greenfield and bluefield get chosen by habit

Your systems integrator often has a default answer before they've seen your data. We know what each transition path actually costs in custom code, data migration effort and cutover risk — and whether the one you were sold matches what your ECC landscape can support.

03

"Green" status reports hide real gaps

A vendor-neutral reviewer can check whether a status report exists. A platform-certified one can check whether the testing evidence, cutover runbook and data reconciliation behind it would survive a hard look.

Where We Go Deep

What an SAP-certified review actually checks

Migration path fit

Brownfield, greenfield or selective (bluefield) transition assessed against your actual ECC customisation, integration and data footprint — not a generic recommendation.

RISE & GROW with SAP

Contract structure and hyperscaler dependencies under RISE, and whether GROW's preconfigured, Clean Core approach fits a business your size.

Custom code & legacy integrations

What happens to your Z-programs, user exits and bolt-on integrations in S/4HANA's Clean Core model — before they become a hypercare surprise.

Data migration & reconciliation

SAP data migration is usually where budgets and timelines actually break. We check the reconciliation evidence, not just the migration plan.

Cutover & hypercare readiness

Whether your cutover runbook, UAT sign-off and hypercare staffing plan reflect what a live SAP go-live actually demands.

Business One & ByDesign fit

For mid-market teams evaluating SAP's smaller-footprint products, an honest read on whether Business One or ByDesign fits — or whether you'll outgrow it.

2027

SAP ECC/R3 mainstream maintenance ends Dec 31

GROW

SAP's cloud-first, Clean Core path to S/4HANA

RISE

SAP's managed, contract-bundled migration route

The teams that get burned aren't the ones without a migration plan. They're the ones whose plan was never checked by someone who's actually run an S/4HANA cutover.
