Last position:

ERP Program Manager at Fiserv

  • The customer is undergoing a comprehensive transformation. All SAP ECC landscapes worldwide are being migrated to SAP S/4HANA, with the goal of introducing a standard template worldwide.

  • The program also includes the “RISE with SAP” migration and modernization program, which may involve migrating the landscapes of selected country installations to the SAP Private Cloud.

  • On the stakeholder side, the program reporting line extends to the company’s executive board and that of the implementation partner.

  • Fiserv Germany’s ERP landscape currently includes several non-standard SAP tools and applications that extend the functionality of the ECC environment and can often be integrated into downstream systems. As part of the transition to SAP S/4HANA, it is essential to assess the core functionality, integration points and future viability of these applications in order to determine their alignment with the target architecture.

  • The focus of the work is on providing expert advice and assessment to define the scope, strategy and roadmap for transitioning Fiserv Germany’s SAP ECC system to SAP S/4HANA.

  • The recommended best practices from SAP 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 – assessment of available transition approaches based on business objectives, technical feasibility and SAP Best Practices.

  • Technical Readiness Assessment – conducting a system analysis to assess compatibility, custom code impact, data volume management, integration points and infrastructure readiness for SAP S/4HANA.

  • Business Process Impact Analysis – reviewing the latest business process documentation to define the scope and effort required to implement the necessary functions in SAP S/4HANA and to identify opportunities for process optimization.

  • Roadmap for Non-SAP Systems and Applications – assessment of third-party and legacy applications regarding their integration with SAP S/4HANA and recommendation of consolidation, migration or replacement strategies.

  • Deployment & Implementation Planning – defining a phased approach for implementation, including project schedules, risk mitigation strategies and key milestones aligned with business priorities.

  • This transformation takes place in phases: the Discovery phase leads to the Explore phase, which is followed by the Design phase and finally implementation.

  • Program management

  • Change management

  • Requirements management

  • Transition management

About the technology

What CMMI covers

CMMI, or Capability Maturity Model Integration, is a framework for improving how organizations plan, execute, measure, and control their work. It connects business goals with repeatable practices for development, services, supplier management, security, and delivery. CMMI helps teams identify process weaknesses and establish evidence-based improvements.

Models and variants

The CMMI ecosystem includes practice areas for development, services, suppliers, safety, security, and data management. Many organizations still refer to the former CMMI-DEV model when discussing software and product delivery. Experts also distinguish between capability improvement, maturity appraisals, and the specific scope selected for an organization.

Appraisals and evidence

CMMI work depends on more than writing procedures. Specialists map current practices to model expectations, define appraisal boundaries, collect objective evidence, and prepare interview participants. They may support a formal appraisal through an authorized appraisal method or conduct readiness reviews that expose gaps before external assessment.

Where companies use it

CMMI is common in organizations that need controlled, measurable delivery across complex contracts and regulated environments.

  • Software and systems development with defined lifecycle controls
  • Managed services with service quality and continuity requirements
  • Aerospace, defense, automotive, and medical product programs
  • Supplier networks that require consistent assurance practices
  • Enterprise transformation and process governance initiatives

Tools and adjacent skills

A CMMI initiative often connects process management with quality assurance, risk management, configuration management, measurement, and project planning. Specialists may work with Jira, Azure DevOps, ServiceNow, document repositories, dashboards, and audit evidence systems. Useful adjacent knowledge includes ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 330xx, Agile delivery, DevOps, IT service management, and security governance.

Choosing strong specialists

Look for professionals who can translate model language into practical workflows without creating unnecessary bureaucracy. Strong experts show experience with gap assessments, process architecture, training, metrics, corrective action, and appraisal preparation. They ask how work is actually performed, test evidence with delivery teams, and leave behind maintainable practices rather than templates alone.

Frequently asked questions

Before you brief your next project: the most common questions about CMMI.

Companies use CMMI to make delivery and management practices more consistent, measurable, and aligned with business goals. It can support process improvement, supplier assurance, service quality, risk control, and preparation for a formal appraisal.

CMMI focuses deeply on process capability and the way specific practices are performed and evidenced. ISO 9001 provides a broader quality management system standard, so organizations may use both when they need operational improvement as well as a recognized quality framework.

A strong CMMI specialist usually combines process design with quality assurance, measurement, project governance, configuration management, and risk management. Knowledge of Agile, DevOps, ISO 9001, ISO/IEC 330xx, or IT service management can be valuable when the framework must fit an existing operating model.

The right level of CMMI experience depends on the appraisal scope, the organization’s starting point, and how much evidence already exists. A readiness review may need a focused process specialist, while a broad transformation benefits from someone who can coordinate leadership, delivery teams, documentation, metrics, and appraisal preparation.

Much of CMMI work can be delivered remotely through workshops, document reviews, interviews, process mapping, and evidence checks. On-site sessions can still help when specialists need to observe delivery practices, align several locations, or build trust with teams unfamiliar with process improvement.

Companies often engage a CMMI freelancer when an appraisal is approaching, internal process ownership is unclear, or delivery quality varies across teams and suppliers. External expertise can provide an independent gap assessment and a practical improvement plan without adding a permanent role.

Evaluate whether the CMMI specialist connects recommendations to real workflows, business objectives, and objective evidence. Ask for examples of process adoption, measurement design, corrective action, and appraisal readiness, not just policy documents or model terminology.

A typical CMMI engagement may deliver a current-state assessment, process architecture, gap register, improvement roadmap, tailored procedures, training materials, measurement definitions, and an evidence plan. The exact deliverables should reflect the selected model scope and the organization’s delivery environment.

The average hourly rate of freelancers who have used CMMI in their recent projects is 109 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 871 € based on an 8-hour working day.

Of the freelancers who have used CMMI in their recent projects, 91% hold at least a Bachelor's degree, 55% hold at least a Master's degree, and 15% hold a doctorate.

On average, freelancers who have used CMMI in their recent projects have 29 years of professional experience, with a single engagement typically lasting around 2 years.

The most common languages among freelancers who have used CMMI in their recent projects are German (100%), English (98%), and French (52%).
