  • The client is undergoing a comprehensive transformation. All SAP ECC landscapes worldwide are being migrated to SAP S/4HANA with the goal of introducing a global standard template.
  • The program also considers the migration and modernization program 'RISE with SAP', which may involve moving selected country installations to the SAP Private Cloud.
  • On the stakeholder side, the program’s reporting line extends to the company's board and the implementation partner's board.
  • Fiserv Germany’s ERP landscape currently includes several non-standard SAP tools and applications that extend the ECC environment’s capabilities and often integrate into downstream systems. As part of the move to SAP S/4HANA, it is essential to assess these applications' core functionality, integration points and future viability to determine their alignment with the target architecture.
  • The focus of the role is to provide expert advisory and evaluation services to define scope, strategy and a roadmap for transitioning Fiserv Germany’s SAP ECC system to SAP S/4HANA.
  • Recommended SAP best practices are followed and a structured approach is used to ensure a smooth transition with minimal disruption while maximizing business value.
  • This assessment forms the basis for a successful SAP S/4HANA transformation and ensures alignment with industry best practices, regulatory compliance and future scalability.
  • Migration strategy definition – evaluating available transition approaches based on business goals, technical feasibility and SAP best practices.
  • Technical readiness assessment – conducting a system analysis to assess compatibility, custom code impacts, data volume management, integration points and infrastructure readiness for SAP S/4HANA.
  • Business process impact analysis – reviewing up-to-date business process documentation to define the scope and effort needed for implementing required functions in SAP S/4HANA and identifying process optimization opportunities.
  • Roadmap for non-SAP systems and applications – assessing third-party and legacy applications for SAP S/4HANA integration and recommending consolidation, migration or replacement strategies.
  • Deployment & implementation planning – defining a phased rollout approach, including project timelines, risk mitigation strategies and key milestones aligned with business priorities.
  • This transformation is done in stages: the discovery phase leads to the explore phase, followed by the design phase and finally the implementation phase.
