Designing your digital backbone right from the start

Every journey starts with a first step. Companies frequently struggle to realize ERP transformation benefits. The reason often lies in the preparation stage. Find out how PwC’s ERP experts are overcoming this obstacle, using the concept of a structured Pre-Study leading to a thorough transformation roadmap ahead of time.

In ERP transformations, preparation is the key to success.

PwC’s S/4HANA Pre-study approach brings structure and detail to this all-important phase. Companies can use this approach to refine the strategic goals and scope of their transformation and match expected business and IT benefits to needed investment.

By the end of the Pre-study process, a company can make informed decisions on their transformation approach and  can qualify the business and IT scope (heatmap) of the transformation. These decisions can be based on the created benefit case, The change management concept to get everybody onboard, and an appropriate transformation roadmap leading to a composable ERP architecture post-transformation.

A proper S/4HANA pre-study is a key enabler, allowing companies to visualize a clear path to achieving their strategic transformation objectives, aligned on a joined understanding of the main focus areas, but avoiding unnecessary costs and not beneficial implementations. It is not an end to itself, but the beginning of a focused and effective ERP transformation.

It is said that ‘every battle is won before it is fought’. That’s just how the PwC Pre-study approaches the ERP transformation process, using a structured method that qualifies the transformation approach and identifies process and application challenges and maps out S/4HANA solutions before the transformation even begins.
