In this article, we outline the details of the programme, its key benefits and the way in which SNOK, as a trusted partner, helps deliver secure digital transformations.
About the RISE with SAP Migration and Modernization programme
“RISE with SAP Migration and Modernization” is a programme designed to enable SAP customers to move their ERP systems to the cloud smoothly, while modernising their business processes at the same time. The “RISE with SAP Migration and Modernization” programme is specifically designed for customers currently using SAP ERP Central Component (ECC) and on-premise SAP S/4HANA who are looking for an effective way to move their systems to the cloud while modernising their business processes to increase efficiency and innovation. It is a response to the growing need among enterprises for operational flexibility, scalability and access to the latest technological innovations. Recognising the challenges associated with migration and modernisation, SAP offers a range of resources, services and financial incentives under the programme aimed at lowering barriers to entry and accelerating digital transformation.
Key benefits of the programme
The “RISE with SAP Migration and Modernization” programme offers a wide range of benefits that are key for enterprises seeking to accelerate their digital transformation. These benefits relate not only to technological aspects, but also to operational, financial and strategic ones, making the programme a comprehensive solution for companies at various stages of their digital journey.
-
Reduced cost and complexity: one of the biggest obstacles to digital transformation is the high cost and complexity associated with migrating systems to the cloud and modernising them. The “RISE with SAP” programme offers a unique approach that significantly reduces these barriers. Thanks to specially designed financial packages, including incentives and credits, enterprises can limit their initial investment and spread costs over more manageable instalments. In addition, SAP provides support at every stage of the process, from planning to implementation, which simplifies the whole project and reduces the associated operational complexity.
-
Flexibility and scalability: in today’s fast-changing business environment, flexibility and scalability are key to maintaining competitiveness. The “RISE with SAP” programme allows enterprises to easily adjust their resources and IT infrastructure to current business needs. Migrating to the cloud with SAP’s support means companies can quickly scale their operations up or down in response to market changes, without the need for major capital investment. This increases not only operational efficiency but also enables better cost management.
-
Access to innovation: by using the “RISE with SAP” programme, enterprises gain access to the latest technologies and innovations offered by SAP. This includes advanced analytics tools, artificial intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and sustainability management tools. This enables companies not only to optimise their existing business processes, but also to explore new business models and revenue streams. Access to continuous updates and new functionality ensures that enterprises stay at the forefront of innovation, increasing their competitiveness in the market.
-
Security and regulatory compliance: in an era of growing cyber threats and complex data protection regulations, security and regulatory compliance are a priority for every enterprise. The “RISE with SAP” programme ensures that migration to the cloud and system modernisation take place while maintaining the highest security standards. SAP offers advanced data protection mechanisms, regular security audits and compliance with global standards and regulations, allowing companies to focus on their business with confidence that their data is secure.
