Who Needs This Service?
Our SAP RISE & Private Cloud Advisory Service is ideal for:
01
Organizations considering or committed to moving their SAP workloads to SAP RISE or SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud Edition (PCE) and seeking expert guidance to align their current SAP architecture, licensing, and roadmap with SAP’s cloud operating models.
02
Companies aiming to mitigate risk and avoid contractual surprises by proactively managing compliance, cost drivers, and migration decisions, similar to preparing for an SAP licensing or contract audit.
What Do We Offer?
Our RISE & Private Cloud Advisory Service ensures your cloud transition is commercially optimized, compliant with SAP terms, and strategically aligned to your long-term digital goals.
Cloud Readiness & License Assessment
We perform a comprehensive analysis of your existing SAP environment—including licenses, contracts, user entitlements, and custom developments- to determine RISE/PCE readiness. We highlight opportunities to reduce cost, remove shelfware, and avoid unnecessary cloud licensing under RISE.
Commercial Planning & Negotiation Strategy
We help you evaluate the business case for SAP RISE vs. Private Cloud and craft a negotiation strategy that addresses pricing, contract duration, entitlements, service-level terms, and exit flexibility. Our service includes support during commercial discussions with SAP, ensuring you secure a vendor-agnostic, financially sound deal.
Compliance & Contract Risk Management
RISE contracts introduce new obligations, such as baseline entitlements, usage caps, and bundled cloud services. We guide you through these changes, identifying legal, licensing, and audit risks across your future cloud estate—before you sign.
Future-Proofing Your Cloud Commitments
We advise on how to build flexibility into your SAP cloud model, including hybrid scenarios, license carve-outs, and options for scaling up or down over time. Our advisory includes strategic input on aligning SAP RISE with broader multi-cloud, hyperscaler, or best-of-breed strategies.
