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.

About the technology
Delphi foundations
Delphi is Embarcadero’s development environment for Object Pascal. It is used to create native Windows applications, cross-platform software and services with a strong focus on fast execution and maintainable code. The visual component library, form designer and compiled binaries make Delphi practical for long-running business systems.
Where Delphi runs
Delphi applications support manufacturing, logistics, healthcare, finance, retail and public-sector operations. Companies use them for desktop workflows, point-of-sale software, warehouse tools, laboratory systems, device control and internal administration. In Germany, many established business applications still depend on Delphi and need careful modernization rather than a full replacement.
- Maintain Windows desktop applications
- Extend ERP, stock and production workflows
- Connect software to scanners, machines and peripherals
- Deliver cross-platform applications with FireMonkey
Ecosystem and tooling
Strong specialists work with Embarcadero Delphi, Object Pascal and the Visual Component Library. They may use FireDAC for database access, REST Client libraries for integrations, FireMonkey for cross-platform interfaces and RAD Studio for project management. Useful adjacent skills include SQL, REST APIs, Windows services, JSON, version control and automated testing.
When companies need help
Freelance expertise is valuable when an internal team must upgrade an older Delphi codebase, replace legacy components or release features without disrupting daily operations. Specialists can assess dependencies, improve build processes, migrate database access and document systems that have grown over many years. They can also support a transition from Borland Delphi projects to current Embarcadero tooling.
- Upgrade compiler, libraries and third-party components
- Refactor tightly coupled forms and business logic
- Integrate REST, SQL and enterprise systems
- Prepare releases for long-term maintenance
What quality looks like
A capable Delphi professional understands both the language and the operational context of the application. They separate user-interface code from domain logic, handle memory and threading carefully, and know how database drivers, Windows APIs and legacy components affect reliability. They also create repeatable builds, test critical workflows and explain technical decisions clearly.
Collaboration in Germany
Delphi work often involves close contact with product owners, support teams and specialists responsible for connected equipment or business processes. Remote collaboration works well when the codebase, build environment and test access are documented; on-site sessions can help with hardware, protected networks or complex operational workflows in Germany. Clear communication in English or German may be important when requirements come from local teams.
Frequently asked questions
What clients ask us most about Delphi — answered in short.
Delphi is used to build native Windows business applications, database tools, industrial interfaces, services and cross-platform software. It remains useful where fast desktop performance, direct hardware access and a stable installed application matter.
A strong Delphi solution can produce compact native applications with a productive visual development workflow. C# may fit teams centered on the .NET ecosystem, while Java is common for portable enterprise back ends; the right choice depends on existing code, deployment needs and available skills.
A capable Object Pascal specialist often works with SQL, REST and SOAP integrations, JSON, Windows services, FireDAC, version control and automated testing. Experience with FireMonkey, third-party components and device communication is valuable for broader application work.
The required background depends on the system’s age, risk and scope. For a legacy migration, choose a Delphi professional who can trace dependencies, understand older Borland Delphi patterns and plan incremental upgrades; a focused feature may need narrower experience.
Yes, many Delphi projects can be delivered remotely through shared repositories, documented build environments and secure access to test systems. On-site work may be useful when the application controls local hardware, depends on protected networks or requires direct observation of business operations in Germany.
Ask a Delphi specialist to explain the architecture, build process, database access and testing approach in a comparable project. Review how they isolate business logic, manage legacy dependencies, handle errors and document changes before accepting a delivery.
Embarcadero Delphi can support gradual modernization through compiler upgrades, replacement of obsolete components, cleaner separation of concerns and improved automated tests. A specialist should first map dependencies and risks so that important workflows remain stable during the transition.
A Borland Delphi codebase may include old project files, third-party controls, direct database calls and undocumented operational rules. Before starting, clarify the compiler version, source-control setup, target systems, release process, database technology and access to representative test data.
