Global SAP Consolidation Strategy Enables 30-40% Faster Blueprinting and Onboarding
Client Profile
The client is a global research and analytics company with operations in multiple countries. Its enterprise systems landscape reflected a regional split: the U.S. business had already transitioned to SAP S/4HANA, while the Rest of the World business remained on a single SAP ECC platform.
As the end of SAP ECC support approaches on December 31, 2027, the organization needed a future-state architecture for its international operations that would reduce cost, support global standardization, and improve long-term scalability. A5E Consulting was brought in to assess strategic options and recommend the most practical way forward.
The Challenge
Aging ECC landscape
The RoW SAP environment had been in place since 2008. Although it had previously consolidated multiple regional systems, over time it became harder to support and less aligned with evolving business requirements. Several processes still depended on traditional ECC workflows, limiting the organization’s ability to support newer models such as subscription-based services and advanced analytics.
The landscape also relied on legacy integrations, including Hyperion, which increased technical debt and made the architecture more difficult to maintain.
