Key Takeaways

  • With SAP ECC support ending in 2027, organizations must begin preparing for S/4. Otherwise, they risk higher costs, rushed migrations, and operational disruptions.

  • Modern SAP strategies focus on more than migration; clean core principles, data optimization, and intelligent automation within cloud architectures to simplify and enhance AI, analytics, and innovation.

  • Intelligent automation is now essential. Finance automation, centralized document management, SAP BTP innovation, and BW modernization are key to improving accuracy, compliance, and scalability.

As the SAP ecosystem shifts to cloud computing and automation, businesses must replace outdated systems to stay competitive. Preparing for S/4 by 2026 is crucial; companies should optimize data, modernize platforms, and adopt automation in finance and analytics. Acting now will help reduce risks and control costs while preparing for future growth.
