ECC TO HANA
The 2027 end of mainstream maintenance deadline for SAP Business Suite is pushing the growing number of companies moving to SAP S/4HANA. Migrating to SAP S/4HANA provides many benefits to companies, such as real-time data analytics for informed decision-making, a low-code environment, automation, and access to advanced artificial intelligence (AI).
According to a recent SAPinsider research report, 21% of companies are already using SAP S/4HANA, and another 20% are currently in the process of implementing it. The research also revealed that the top three factors that prevent organizations from making the move to SAP S/4HANA are:
- Length of Project
- Complexity of Existing Implementation
- High Cost of Project
With the expertise of an experienced services integrator, companies can navigate these challenges easily and ensure a successful implementation of SAP S/4HANA.
SAP S/4HANA Implementation in Manufacturing and Distribution
At Ameri100, a partner of SAP’s portfolio of solutions, we provide end-to-end SAP S/4HANA implementation and support. We recently facilitated a manufacturing and distribution company’s migration from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA. With over $1 billion in revenue, the client company is a major player in the industry, dealing with commercial and residential Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) products and services.
This customer was operating with obsolete SAP ECC processes in a shared instance. For a fast-growing firm, scalability is essential to be able to accommodate future expansion. We helped the company with an SAP S/4HANA 2020 Greenfield implementation and increased operational efficiency and scalability.
The implementation provided the client company with:
- Real-time, streamlined analytics for operational management reporting, resulting in higher productivity and better business insights for efficient exception handling.
- Warehouse consolidation which reduced inventory and freight costs.
- A single source of truth for the company, with integrated business processes across supply chain logistics and finance.
By moving to SAP S/4HANA, companies can thrive in the dynamic business environment and become future-ready. Ameri100 bridges the gap between strategy and execution, assisting companies with every phase of their digital transformation roadmap, from initial assessment to post-deployment support.
