Whitepaper: 4 Steps to a Successful SAP Landscape Transformation
Key Takeaways
⇨ The Change Matrix helps organizations assess the motivations and barriers for change by examining desired outcomes, current pain points, potential losses, and risks of both change and no change.
⇨ Minimal Viable Scope (MVS) focuses on implementing only the essential capabilities needed to achieve desired business outcomes, reducing the risks and costs associated with larger, more complex projects.
⇨ Contextualizing scope with the Differentiation Risk Matrix ensures prioritization of improvements that either mitigate significant risks or provide competitive differentiation, optimizing resource allocation and maximizing impact.
Through our work with a broad range of enterprises, we‘ve developed a four-step approach to help realize the value of an SAP transformation initiative. These steps help determine and communicate why the proposed changes matter, identify what capabilities will be required over time to support the desired outcomes, and how resources should be deployed over time to
deliver the change. This approach not only applies to those currently on an SAP landscape but also to those who may be considering implementing a new ERP system into their landscape. Following our approach enables organizations to achieve their desired outcomes with their SAP investment.
