The Hidden Finance Risks Your System Integrator Won't Tell You About
Most S/4HANA projects focus on technical conversion, not finance outcomes. That's why 70% of finance transformations fail to deliver promised benefits and require costly rework.
SAP’s readiness check shows if your system can technically convert to S/4HANA
It does not tell you if your Finance design, reporting, and processes will actually work once you’re live.
What makes our assessment different: We're independent - no system integrator agenda, no vendor bias. Just finance-first expertise that tells you the uncomfortable truths about your S/4HANA design before they become million-euro mistakes."
€500K+ in post-go-live finance rework due to design flaws
6-12 month delays when reporting doesn't work as expected
