IT > Optimize & Reshape

System landscape simplification & harmonization

Many companies are faced with a complex system landscape today. IT departements are under pressure due to fast-growing maintenance costs for upgrades, interfaces, licenses, etc. IT portfolio management needs to make sure that only value adding IT investments, projects and activities are carried out.

Let’s go through your software packages field by field, drop-down by drop-down. Remove every field and every drop-down entry for which you don’t have a legally binding requirement or a clear work instruction.

Back to standard

Standard software functionality has rapidly grown over the years. Many developments can be replaced by software out-of-the box today reducing maintenance costs.

S/4 HANA migration

SAP has announced to decommission it’s SAP Business Suite 7 by end of 2027 and offer extended support to it’s customers at additional expenses until 2030. Late migrating enterprises might be faced with a shortage of SAP consultants on the market and are recommended to move to S/4 HANA soon. Standard migration scenarios are available.

IT Shared Services

Benefit from the numbers of scale by building your own centrally managed IT shared service organisation. Services may cover the whole hard- and software life cycle for your complete IT portfolio.

IT > Reframe & Cut

Merger & carve-out

Master the integration and separation of organizational units in a more and more agile world based on a proven framework and toolset for IT-driven HR aspects in your merger or carve-out project.

Outsourcing (local / near-shore / off-shore)

Outsourcing of HR-IT applications and services needs to be carefully planned because every employee is affected. HR people might fear to lose their jobs and jeopardize your project. Failed attempts cost time, money and frustration. 

Be aware of the cultural differences when aiming for an off-shore solution. Take into account that vendors want to earn money on you when considering to outsource parts of your organization.
