Case Study
Mix & Match: innovation starts with process redesign

Our composable approach to support the SAP S/4HANA technology evolution roadmap.
Where: international
Where: international
Challenge
A leading oil company needed to define a medium-term roadmap for the technological evolution and transformation of its SAP ECC platform towards the SAP S/4HANA world.
Approach
The objective was to adapt it to the best technological fit and proceed with a progressive roll-out of the application stack in the various countries of Europe, starting from the Central European cluster. Specifically, for the German market, the objectives of the transformation path needed to combine both a redesign of the “core” business processes and the selection of differentiating process elements considered to have particular added value by the customer.
A further need was to improve the user experience and the ability to integrate the business into the network, enhancing the digital ecosystem of the SAP platform.

The Engineering's study began with an assessment of existing processes and continued with SAP’s identification of possible standard coverage with SAP Model Company and SAP Best Practices. We applied the results obtained to the client's processes, assessing the degree of adoptability of the standard rather than the adaptation of the custom and keeping the migration plan to SAP S/4HANA as the final objective.
We adopted the migration strategy to SAP S/4HANA through Model Company in the Oil sector, using a “composable” approach able to guarantee the client more advantageous technological solutions. We designed a Mix & Match solution, which strikes the right balance between the ability to leverage “back to standard” for core business processes and the ability to re-engineer existing customisations on SAP’s Business Technology Platform. Specific KPIs were defined to measure the return on investment of the project over time.
