Deliverables

What to agree in the first scope

Possible assessment outputs, selected and confirmed during scoping.

  • Readiness findings and programme risks
  • Data, process and custom-code decisions to resolve
  • A prioritised action plan with owners and stage criteria
Your requirement

Establish readiness before the next SAP programme decision

Make process standardisation, custom-code treatment, master-data ownership and cutover criteria explicit. An independent review should distinguish evidence available now from decisions and dependencies still outstanding.

Approach

How the work runs.

  1. 01 Make the standardisation decision explicit

    Surface it as a business decision with named owners and a stated cost, rather than letting it be settled by default under schedule pressure.

  2. 02 Assess the custom estate

    Usage, duplication and obsolescence, so retirement is a defensible position rather than an argument.

  3. 03 Start data remediation early

    Master data ownership and cleansing running well ahead of cutover, because these are business decisions and business decisions take time.

  4. 04 Assure readiness independently

    An outside assessment of whether test coverage and cutover readiness support the date — most valuable precisely when it is least welcome.

Questions

What buyers ask

Can MENTARA run a full S/4HANA implementation?

MENTARA is not an SAP implementation partner and does not currently hold SAP partner status. Our offer is advisory, readiness and assurance support alongside an appropriately staffed implementation provider.

Can you review a programme already under way?

We can review programme readiness and provide an independent assessment of outstanding decisions, risks and acceptance criteria.

What if our programme has a fixed deadline?

Identify the decisions necessary for the next milestone, the evidence supporting readiness and the risks requiring explicit acceptance. The assessment should distinguish essential changes from work that can be sequenced later.
