SBN SAP S/4HANA Value Creation Day

Date: April 23rd, 09:00-16:00.
Face2Face Location: Oslo. Exact location will be published closer to event date.

This is all about the scoping of your S/4HANA project, the why and what.

How to involve the business and the management of your company to move your old, monolithic legacy system to a future-proof ERP-system, to a platform for digital transformation.

What are your internal and external drivers and where do you see business skills that need to be enhanced through the move or where do you have commodity processes that may be consumed as standard, these are some of the main questions that we seek to find answers to.

Some other questions may include the following:

What does “Value Creation” mean for your business? Who defines what that value potential is and how it could/should be realised?
Is the journey to S/4HANA and digitalisation a “Bottom up” IT project or is it a “Top down” business initiative? If an It-project it very often boils down to a mere technical migration, but are the benefits apart from complying with the maintenance schedule enough for a business case?
How do you succeed in involving Top Management and the business in a huge project like this?
What are the Critical Success Factors in the scoping phase of your project?
What might be the implications of Clean Core for your Business Processes and the use of BTP and how to open your eyes to possible business innovations by the use of BTP, mobile apps, new User Interfaces, Analytics and automations in the forefront of technology?
How do you need to change your thinking from the legacy ECC to SAP S/4HANA to consume its innovations and modern process design?
How can we use the latest technologies to change user experiences and improve business processes by adding in Generativ AI, ML, digital assistants etc. to bring new perspectives to what can be possible and how the SAP core can elevate these experiences.
