Modernise your BW landscape. Preserve its business value.

Discuss your BW roadmap What we deliver View in Services catalogue

BUSINESS CONTEXT AND APPROACH

SAP BW/4HANA services for migration, modelling and dependable operations, with a clear path to your next data architecture.

A BW landscape usually carries years of business logic that reporting still depends on. We start by understanding which of that logic matters, which can be simplified and what the target architecture needs to preserve before choosing a conversion approach.

Modernisation does not end at the technical conversion. We connect the BW/4HANA roadmap with Datasphere and SAP Business Data Cloud, so each investment is assessed against where the data foundation is going next.

OUTCOME AND MEASURES

A modernised BW landscape with protected reporting, clear ownership and an agreed route to the next data foundation.

Before delivery starts we agree baselines for:

Report reconciliation against the current landscape
Data-load and query performance against the agreed baseline
Support incidents and controlled enhancement throughput

HOW WE SERVE

Four connected
delivery streams.

Each stream can start on its own or run as one modernisation programme, depending on your landscape and priorities.
