Strategic Data Management: Paving the Way for Successful S/4HANA Migration
Why organizations need a trusted data culture to move to cloud-based SAP.
Key Takeaways
⇨ Effective data management is the catalyst for ERP modernization and increasingly the foundation of organizational growth.
⇨ Any data migration journey requires a range of data management capabilities, including data integration, data governance, data catalog, data quality and master data management (MDM).
⇨ Getting the data element right at the start is critical to any successful implementation.
For most, it is not a question of ‘if’ but ‘when?’ when it comes to digital transformation. Modernization is essential to enable organizations to find opportunities, realize efficiencies, innovate and deliver products/services. Migrating to S/4HANA in the cloud is therefore a strategic imperative to empower organizations – but getting the data management strategy right is key.
First and foremost, it is essential that organizations do not look for shortcuts. Attempts to use existing data to simply try and migrate to S/4HANA will not work. If anything, this would lead to wasted time, money and increased business risk. For any organization looking to modernize their SAP landscape, understanding existing data and managing that data for migration to the SAP cloud is critical.
