Planning an SAP transformation? Uncover custom code cost, complexity, and risk—free.
During an SAP upgrade, the challenge is how to bring the right code forward, retire what is no longer needed, and make the switch without risking business disruption. smartShift analyzes, transforms, validates, and governs the complete custom code environment to deliver secure, stable, and upgrade-ready code in a matter of weeks, with accountability built into the outcome.
Updating your SAP systems means making a decision about how to handle your custom code. Is it better to use a manual approach, relying on developers, or automation and artificial intelligence, relying on technology? The answer, according to thousands of SAP customers, is smartShift.
Our analysis engine extracts and analyzes your legacy code to gain an in-depth understanding of your codebase and its technical dependencies. Using this insight, we create a data-driven remediation plan that identifies what should be retained, retired, redesigned, or transformed while securing your timeline and all-in cost.
Powered by thousands of transformation algorithms, our automation technology intelligently remediates 100% of code compatibility issues with 99.99% precision — including S/4HANA, HANA, Security, Unicode, and more. In a few weeks, we deliver secure, stable, and optimized code that is guaranteed to work within your target system. That’s 4x faster than the conventional approach.
Each transformation is tracked and validated to maintain consistency and visibility across the codebase.
Avoid code freezes, project delays, and cutover issues with dual maintenance. Our technology automatically compares, merges, and remediates code to keep your production and target landscapes in sync — so you never have to compromise your business velocity.
SAP Clean Core does not have to mean starting over. Our AI-powered technology can analyze your custom code to provide crucial details about how it can fit into certain modernization models. It will identify which custom programs are good candidates for transformation and which will work side-by-side with a Clean Core SAP system. The analysis supports practical decisions about what should be retained, retired, redesigned, or moved toward SAP-aligned extensibility models.
Automating individual remediation tasks is only one part of SAP custom code transformation. smartShift applies automation across the complete codebase with SAP expertise, validation, governance, and accountable delivery to improve speed, consistency, and control.
Most SAP systems have millions of lines of custom code that require significant manual effort to analyze, prioritize, and govern every change..
Some manual efforts only address high-priority issues, leaving legacy code untouched and creating gaps in visibility, validation, and control.
Conventional upgrades require substantial developer resources, which are already scarce and expensive, while also increasing the manual review and validation burden.
Traditional code remediation can take months, or even years, of your team’s time and money, with scope, progress, and outcomes difficult to control.
Our AI-driven solutions analyze 100% of custom code to evaluate each modification and provide clear visibility into what should be retained, retired, redesigned, or transformed.
We fix 100% of identified compatibility issues with 99.99% precision, with validation and traceability built into the process to support a controlled go-live.
With 100,000+ hours of built-in knowledge, smartShift applies automation across the codebase while maintaining technical review, governance, validation, and lifecycle control. The result is not only faster remediation, but accountable delivery of business-ready code
We can analyze and transform all of your custom code in as little as three weeks for a fixed price, with defined scope, transparent progress, and accountable delivery.
Backed by more than a decade of research and development, smartShift’s patented technology is a proven way to modernize and future-proof your SAP investments with unparalleled agility and guaranteed results. A better way to address your SAP custom code is just a call away.

The conventional approach to migrating and optimizing custom code takes too much time and leaves too much room for risk. Do it faster and more accurately with automation, validation, and governance built into the process. smartShift provides visibility into what changes, how those changes are validated, and which areas still require technical or business review. The work is delivered against a defined scope, timeline, and outcome rather than leaving customers to configure, operate, and govern remediation technology themselves.

SAP custom code lifecycle management is the continuous process of analyzing, modernizing, governing, securing, and simplifying custom code as the SAP environment evolves. It extends beyond a single migration to address future upgrades, Clean Core initiatives, ABAP Cloud readiness, security requirements, technical debt, and other business-driven changes.
smartShift supports the full custom code lifecycle—from initial analysis and transformation through decommissioning, security, Clean Core enablement, and future SAP upgrades. Its automation helps enterprises continually modernize their codebase instead of repeating large-scale manual remediation with every SAP change.
smartShift applies structured automation, traceability, and validation throughout the transformation process. Teams can see what changed, why it changed, and how it was checked, creating greater control from initial analysis through validation and future upgrade cycles.
Lifecycle management makes Clean Core practical by helping organizations understand what custom code exists, retire what is no longer needed, modernize what still supports the business, and move appropriate extensions toward SAP-recommended development models. This reduces technical debt while preserving essential business functionality.
Yes. smartShift helps keep custom code clean, secure, stable, and ready for future SAP changes. Ongoing analysis and automated transformation allow organizations to address new compatibility requirements, technical debt, security risks, and evolving SAP standards without treating every upgrade as a new remediation project.
Yes. smartShift works alongside internal SAP teams, system integrators, consulting firms, and technology partners. Its automation handles high-volume custom code analysis and transformation, freeing SAP specialists to focus on architecture, business requirements, testing, and higher-value innovation.
AI-based remediation tools can accelerate specific developer tasks by identifying issues, applying available fixes, and generating code adaptations for review. smartShift delivers a governed, enterprise-scale transformation outcome across the full custom codebase. It combines deterministic automation, optimization, validation, traceability, and SAP expertise to address compatibility, performance, security, stability, and technical debt—not only the findings required to complete a migration. The result is clean, modern, upgrade-ready code delivered with a fixed timeline, fixed price, and guaranteed quality.
