Our SAP S/4HANA Migration Services

SAP offers three scenarios for S/4HANA implementation. Which one to choose depends on your business infrastructure, needs, goals, and budget.

System Conversion

In a greenfield approach, the migration basically means a new implementation. Starting with a fresh SAP S/4HANA system from scratch enables you to:

  • Easily rethink and standardize your business processes.
  • Eliminate technical debt or leave inefficient legacy workflows behind.
  • Readily adopt SAP S/4HANA best practices.

However, going greenfield can also mean having to re-implement customizations and custom code, migrate data, and re-train users. All of which can mean more effort and resources.

System Conversion

The brownfield migration is also known as system conversion. Data, configurations, and customizations are transitioned from the legacy system to a new one. Some advantages include:

  • Minimal disruption of operations.
  • Faster and less resource-intensive migration process.
  • Retention of all historical data and context.

The downside is, you may be carrying over a lot of legacy inefficiencies and outdated data, hampering your ability to optimize, innovate, and move forward.

Selective Data Transition

This approach allows selective migration of processes and data, combining aspects of greenfield and brownfield approaches.

  • Flexibility to redesign while retaining useful historical data.
  • Optimized balance between effort and innovation.
  • Better control over migration strategy.

A hybrid approach can be very flexible in terms of which modules and data are migrated when and in what order. This allows you to prioritize business-critical areas, reduce the impact on the organization, and ensure future extensibility and upgrades.

Migration Process & Roadmap

Evaluation and planning

Prior to starting the migration process, it's crucial to thoroughly assess your current ERP landscape. Our experts will work with you to analyze your current business goals, operations, dependencies, and modifications made - to craft a migration strategy optimized to your organization's requirements.

System preparation

Before a conversion and/or migration can begin, your ECC system needs to meet the essential requirements for transitioning to S/4HANA. From applying the necessary support packages and upgrades to resolving any technical requirements - our team will help ensure the migration is seamless.

Data migration

Data migration is a pivotal part of most migration projects. Our team will extract, transform, and/or normalize, and load the data into your new S/4HANA system. Irrelevant data can be discarded, while important legacy information can be efficiently archived for later reference. We will also thoroughly test and validate the system to ensure no critical data fell through the cracks or was inadvertently altered in the process.

Custom code adjustments

Custom ABAP code within your current system needs to be evaluated to make sure it's compatible with S/4HANA. Business-critical code can be enhanced or adjusted to align with S/4HANA requirements, while technical debt and legacy code can be discarded to speed up the migration. Our QA staff will perform meticulous testing to ensure all custom code works post-transition.

User training

We understand user adoption is an important success factor. Neolysi experts can offer both user training initiatives and comprehensive documentation to streamline the transition process and boost user adoption and engagement.

Post-migration support

Once your new S/4HANA system successfully goes live, our job is not necessarily done. Besides tackling any outstanding issues, Neolysi' experts can monitor the system's performance, collect end-user feedback, and offer professional on-demand services around S/4HANA to further help your business.

FAQ

You can choose a new implementation (Greenfield), a system conversion (Brownfield), or a selective data transition (Bluefield). The best approach depends on your needs and current systems.

While SAP has extended mainstream maintenance for SAP ECC to the end of 2027, it's crucial to start planning your migration sooner rather than later. This allows for proper preparation, avoids last-minute rushes, and maximizes the benefits of S/4HANA.

SAP S/4HANA is the next-gen ERP. It includes a simplified data model for faster processing, the Fiori user experience for a modern interface, embedded analytics, and new functionalities in areas like finance and supply chain.

Timelines vary based on factors like your current system landscape, chosen migration approach, and project complexity, ranging from several months to over a year.
