Luca Pacor
Last position:
ERP Program Manager at Fiserv
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 includes the migration and modernization initiative "RISE with SAP", which may involve migrating selected country installations to the SAP Private Cloud.
On the stakeholder side, the program's reporting line extends up 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 functionality and often integrate with downstream systems. As part of the move to SAP S/4HANA, it is essential to assess the core functionality, integration points, and future viability of these applications to determine their alignment with the target architecture.
The focus of the role is to provide expert advice and assessment to define the scope, strategy, and roadmap for migrating Fiserv Germany's SAP ECC system to SAP S/4HANA.
SAP's recommended 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, ensuring alignment with industry best practices, regulatory compliance, and future scalability.
Migration strategy definition – evaluating 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 needed to implement required functions in SAP S/4HANA and identify process optimization opportunities.
Roadmap for non-SAP systems and applications – evaluating 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.
The transformation is carried out in phases: the discovery phase leads to the explore phase, which then leads to the design phase and finally to the implementation phase.

About the technology
What it covers
SAP Cloud ALM is SAP’s cloud-based application lifecycle management tool for implementation and operations. It helps teams plan projects, track tasks, monitor business processes, and keep SAP systems aligned across change and run phases.
Common work
- Implementation planning with SAP Activate
- Test management and defect tracking
- Monitoring for business processes and integrations
- Change and deployment coordination
- Handovers between project and operations teams
Ecosystem fit
It sits naturally in SAP landscapes that include S/4HANA, SAP BTP, integrations, and cloud releases. Strong specialists know where Cloud ALM fits next to Solution Manager, Focused Build, and other SAP tools, and when to use each one.
When to bring help
Companies bring in freelance expertise when they need a fast rollout, a clean transition from older ALM setups, or support across mixed SAP teams. In Germany, this is common when local business and IT groups need clear documentation, English or German coordination, and structured delivery.
What strong specialists do
Good SAP Cloud ALM professionals work with process scope, system connections, test cases, alerts, and project templates. They keep the setup practical, avoid overdesign, and make sure the tool supports real delivery and support work instead of adding overhead.
Signs you need one
- You are moving from SAP Solution Manager
- Your project needs clearer test and task flow
- Operations teams need better SAP visibility
- Integrations and cloud changes are hard to track
- Your team needs setup, not just advice
Frequently asked questions
Not sure where to start with SAP Cloud ALM? These answers cover the essentials.
SAP Cloud ALM is used to manage SAP implementation work and ongoing operations in one place. Teams use it for task tracking, test coordination, process monitoring, and release-related activities across SAP landscapes.
SAP Cloud ALM is the newer cloud-first option, while Solution Manager is the older, broader on-premise toolset many SAP teams still know. In practice, Cloud ALM is often chosen for simpler setup and cloud-aligned delivery, especially in modern SAP programs.
A strong SAP Cloud ALM specialist usually also knows SAP Activate, test management, release coordination, and basic landscape architecture. Experience with SAP BTP, S/4HANA, integrations, and documentation discipline is often important too.
SAP Cloud ALM work can start with limited context if the goal is configuration, guidance, or a short rollout. For larger programs, the specialist should understand the SAP landscape, delivery method, and how project, test, and run activities connect.
SAP Cloud ALM can often be delivered remotely because most tasks are configuration, coordination, and process design. On-site time in Germany can still help when workshops involve business teams, change management, or sensitive rollout planning.
Look for a SAP Cloud ALM specialist who sets up clean structures, keeps the process simple, and explains trade-offs clearly. Good work is visible in usable templates, traceable tasks, practical monitoring, and a setup that the team can maintain.
SAP Cloud ALM is designed for cloud-oriented SAP delivery, but it is also used where teams run mixed landscapes and need a common lifecycle view. It is especially relevant when cloud releases, integrations, and operations need to stay aligned.
The first request for SAP Cloud ALM is often a review of the current process and a clear setup plan. After that, specialists may configure project scopes, test flows, monitoring views, and handover steps that fit the team’s way of working.
The average hourly rate of freelancers in Germany who have used SAP Cloud ALM in their recent projects is 117 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 934 € based on an 8-hour working day.
Of the freelancers in Germany who have used SAP Cloud ALM in their recent projects, 67% hold at least a Bachelor's degree, 33% hold at least a Master's degree, and 17% hold a doctorate.
On average, freelancers in Germany who have used SAP Cloud ALM in their recent projects have 19 years of professional experience, with a single engagement typically lasting around 1.3 years.
