SAP ECC application support
L1–L3 functional and technical support across FI/CO, SD, MM, PP, PM and HCM, with monitoring, incident and change management.
Keep ECC stable while you move, then move with less risk. We run SAP ECC and HANA application support, plan and execute S/4HANA conversions, and add process intelligence and automation so the new system delivers more than a technical upgrade.
Mainstream maintenance for SAP ECC 6.0 with Enhancement Packages 6 to 8 ends on 31 December 2027. Extended maintenance to the end of 2030 costs more and adds no new capability. The 2031–2033 transition option applies only to selected RISE with SAP customers who are already on HANA.
What most SAP programmes need alongside the core migration — before it, during it, and for years after go-live.
Delivered end to end or as individual services, under our CMMI Level 3 process framework and ISO 27001 certified information security.
L1–L3 functional and technical support across FI/CO, SD, MM, PP, PM and HCM, with monitoring, incident and change management.
Migration from Oracle, DB2 or SQL Server to HANA, performance tuning, sizing, backup and HANA upgrades.
Readiness check, simplification items, custom code analysis and a business case with an approach recommendation.
Convert your existing ECC system to S/4HANA, keeping history and processes, with custom code remediation.
Re-implement on SAP best practices with a clean core, migrating only the data you need.
Combine new processes with selected history, company codes or years, often used to consolidate or carve out.
Move SAP workloads to AWS, Azure or Google Cloud, or to RISE with SAP, with landing zones and security controls.
Find where work actually flows, then automate with RPA, SAP Build and AI, including the exceptions rules cannot handle.
Every phase ends in a documented decision and the evidence behind it — an artefact you own and can take elsewhere.
System scan, custom code inventory, simplification items, interfaces and data volumes.
Approach decision, archiving and data cleansing, landing zone and project governance.
Conversion or build, custom code remediation, integration, testing cycles.
Mock conversions, dress rehearsal, downtime-optimised cutover, hypercare.
Managed services, clean-core governance, process mining and automation backlog.
| Factor | Brownfield (system conversion) | Greenfield (new implementation) | Selective data transition |
|---|---|---|---|
| Keeps history | Yes, full | Only migrated data | Selected years or units |
| Process change | Low to moderate | High, best-practice redesign | Moderate, targeted |
| Custom code | Remediated and carried forward | Mostly retired | Selectively retained |
| Speed | Usually fastest | Longest | In between |
| Best for | Sound processes, time pressure before 2027 | Heavy custom code, need to redesign | Mergers, carve-outs, consolidation |
Many programmes combine approaches by business unit. We recommend after the readiness assessment, not before.

The intelligent enterprise is built on composable architecture, seamless integration, and automation that extends beyond individual systems — into the fabric of operations.
Monolithic systems optimise for efficiency; composable architectures optimise for optionality. We examine the design principles and platform choices that let enterprises respond to change at speed.
More insightsDigital twins are no longer a research project — they are running on plant floors. We describe the sensor, integration, and modelling architecture behind production-grade manufacturing twins.
More insightsRPA handles rule-based tasks. Cognitive process automation handles the exceptions — using AI judgment to manage the 20% of transactions that break the rules. The architecture that makes this work.
More insightsOrganisations with robust API layers move faster, integrate new acquisitions more cheaply, and adapt to regulatory change more cleanly. The design principles that matter most at enterprise scale.
