Bundled implementation solution addresses the primary challenges of moving to SAP S/4HANA, including poor data quality, high cost of implementation, concerns with losing prior ECC customizations, and business disruption.
BOSTON – June 7, 2021 – Syniti, a global leader in enterprise data management, today announced its strategic partnership with smartShift and Natuvion. The three companies have joined forces to help enterprises maximize their RISE with SAP opportunity by accelerating and simplifying the move to SAP S/4HANA.® The solution combines the best-of-breed automation-led implementation capabilities of three leading SAP partners via a single source regardless of approach: Brownfield, Bluefield, Greenfield, Selective Greenfield or Central Finance.
According to an ISG Provider Lens report, enterprises have been slow to make the transition to SAP S/4HANA, citing cost, complexity and manageability as reasons for their delay, despite SAP ending support for its ECC ERP solution by 2027.
Powered by data migration and quality from Syniti, custom code migration from smartShift, and selective data transition from Natuvion, this bundle addresses the primary challenges of migrating to SAP S/4HANA, including poor data quality, high cost of implementation, concerns with losing prior ECC customizations, and business disruption.
“Enterprises embracing digital transformation need a more cost-effective and reliable path to SAP S/4HANA, which is the premise of our strategic partnership,” said Kevin Campbell, CEO of Syniti. “With the end of support looming for ECC, SAP customers realize value from their current investments, deliver faster time to value and superior business outcomes with three leading SAP partners through a single contract.”
Syniti’s offers the only certified solution for SAP S/4HANA migrations, Syniti Advanced Data Migration (ADM) to de-risk the path to SAP S/4HANA while achieving an average 303% ROI with an eight-month payback period.
smartShift’s unique Intelligent Automation Platform converts and modernizes existing SAP customizations or consolidates multiple systems quickly and reliably. It replaces tens of thousands of hours of manual labor with accuracy and precision. “Blending code and data automation is a powerful path to successful SAP transformations,” said Derek Oats, CEO at smartShift.
Natuvion’s Data Conversion Server™ (DCS) is a system transformation engine that offers a fast and pre-defined path to SAP S/4HANA. It delivers proven benefits, such as the ability to go live in months rather than years – often in a single weekend with near-zero downtime.
