Breakout Session: Creating a Platform for Collaborative, Concise SAP S/4HANA Transformation
September 11, 2024 – 2:05pm
Splash 15
Launching a large, complex SAP S/4HANA transformation effectively can be highly challenging. Determining scope, prioritizing transformation outcomes, organizing and aligning stakeholders, setting a regulatory strategy, and finalizing a compelling value case are all complex and interrelated outcomes. KPMG has helped several utilities clients organize and launch their programs and prepare them for the execution phase of the program. Hear how the KPMG SAP S/4HANA Activation Advisor helped utility companies reduce risk, enhance value, and focus on business outcomes.
Key Takeaways:
- How to build a program governance structure that includes work streams, roles, responsibilities, decision authorities, escalation paths, communication cadence, etc.
- How to construct an integrated, business-focused value case and road map.
- How to get key stakeholders aligned on all of the above outcomes to remain a key theme across the majority of Utilities migrating to SAP S/4HANA.
