SAP projects without the drama

Deliver your S/4HANA transformation decidedly better. The end of support for the old ERP world makes the switch unavoidable. CorInnoHiveSAP turns it into a chance to rethink processes end to end, reduce complexity and make your company fit for the future.

Deadline

The end of support doesn’t negotiate.

The date is fixed, no matter how well your landscape is documented. A strategic decision turns into a mandatory one.

Legacy

Every special solution needs a reason.

Whatever grew over the years once had a good reason. Which of those reasons still hold today is rarely known by any single person.

Balancing act

Transformation comes on top of the day job.

The people who know the processes best have the least time. And they are exactly who is needed.

Where you stand

Innovation without the drama. Progress without the detours.

Many companies approach their S/4HANA transformation with mixed feelings. The announced end of support for the old ERP landscape makes the move to S/4HANA unavoidable — and that prospect is enough to put more than a few people on edge. Processes that have evolved over years, individual customisations, tailored applications, and familiar special-purpose solutions all need to be put under the technology microscope.

But that is exactly where the opportunity lies.

Digital companies no longer think in terms of individual applications. They think in end-to-end processes. From strategic planning to production, from the customer to the shop floor. The monolith used to dominate. Today, it is all about how everything works together.

That is why S/4HANA is far more than a system change. It is an opportunity to rethink processes, reduce complexity, and make the business fit for the future.

What is it costing you?

With CorInnoHiveSAP, you can navigate your SAP transformation smoothly and painlessly. On time, on budget, and at the right level of quality.

Without CorInnoHiveSAP

  • What it costs you: A lot of money and manpower. But that investment needs to be defined and executed in line with your business goals. Otherwise, it can put the entire project at risk.
  • What it costs you: Fear of complexity and cost often leads companies to simply carry over existing processes 1:1 in a Brownfield transformation. The result is stagnation — and suddenly your competitors are waving as they pass you by.
  • What it costs you: An S/4HANA transformation is not an IT project. If you fail to involve the different business functions, you risk transforming past their actual needs. And past your business goals.
  • What it costs you: Employees are forced into a constant balancing act between day-to-day operations and transformation work. What is supposed to drive innovation suddenly creates overload and frustration.

With CorInnoHiveSAP

  • What you gain: Direction — Your process defines the system. Not the other way around.
  • What you gain: Lean — We work lean and have no patience for wasted effort. That is why we do not start with the current-state process — after all, the goal is to shape the future.
  • What you gain: Course — Your collective organisation evaluates every process. Many experiences become one shared direction, with everyone rowing the same way.
  • What you gain: Risk — OCM and FMEA are a foundation of our methodology. This allows risks and resistance to be identified before they can throw a wrench in the works.

How we solve it

01

Holistic

We take a holistic view of all relevant processes. Our Business Process Master List provides the foundation.

02

Collective intelligence

We tap into the collective intelligence of your organisation. As Aristotle already understood: “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.”

03

Belbin roles

We use Belbin Team Roles, because successful teams thrive on the right mix of strengths, perspectives, and personalities.

04

Scrutiny

We tap into your organisation’s collective knowledge and put every process through its paces for value and future readiness. If it adds no value, it can go.

Shaping the future is not a game of chance. At least not with us.
The game changer
  • What you gain: If it works, we keep it. If there is a better way, we rethink it and build it better. The result is a set of carefully aligned and approved processes that have already proven themselves as prototypes before becoming part of the transformed reality.
  • What you gain: With the CorInnoHiveSAP methodology, we reliably ensure that the planned processes can actually be implemented — without nasty surprises at the end.

How it works

The path does not start with the current-state process. It starts with the question of which processes the business will actually need — and who is able to judge that.

  1. Set up the Business Process Master List

    All relevant processes go into one shared list. It is the basis on which everything is later evaluated, decided and approved.

    Duration: 2 – 4 weeks

  2. Let the organisation evaluate

    The business functions assess every process for value and future readiness. Teams are staffed along Belbin roles so that not everyone brings the same perspective.

    Duration: 4 – 8 weeks

  3. Prove target processes as prototypes

    Whatever should stay or be newly created is built and approved as a prototype before it enters the target landscape.

    Duration: Per process area

  4. Accompany the transformation

    OCM and FMEA run alongside: risks and resistance are named while there is still time to do something about them.

    Duration: Until go-live

Until the target processes are approvedaround one quarter

CorInnoHiveSAP ensures that every requirement makes a measurable contribution to your business goals.
