Are you ready for Digital Transformation?

Meet the Tarlunt professionals and way of working

What are the 4 main areas of digital transformation?

There’s a multitude of specific processes and strategies used in digital transformation.
These can be broken down into four main areas:

Business Model Transformation

Does your current business model makes sense in a digital business environment? Look at new pricing strategies, products, and services that appeal to today’s high tech markets. An example of digital business model transformation would be Netflix’s pivot from DVD rentals to stre aming video content. The first step is to look at your long and short term goals to determine how to grow your business.

Process Transformation

SAP S/4 Transformations are not IT transformations! Most important part is to review your current business processes and ways of working. Setting up a new, future proof process foundation will prepare you to be ready in the new digital arena. Tarlunt will critically assess your processes, highlight any inefficiencies for improvement with focus on process harmonization and standardization. Our metrics will measure process value.

Domain Transformation

This third area of digital transformation describes the movement of your business into the cloud. Using cloud based systems offers improved security,
agility, and scalability, all at lower cost. Which processes can you start moving over to the cloud? Once you have identified these, you can start migrating
workloads and data using the appropriate software.

Organization Transformation

Digital transformation will change your operating model and ways of working. This impacts your organization. The organizational change with new processes and procedures, new roles will need to be managed carefully with full focus. A tangible change approach based on change impacts, change actions will facilitate change adoption within your organization. Tarlunt professionals have Business Change in their DNA profile and guide your organization effectively through the transformation journey.

Are you ready for SAP S/4 HANA?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

To start your business transformation based on SAP S/4 HANA brings a lot of questions, uncertainties and risks which needs to be managed. This is our Tarlunt DNA, this is what we do daily in helping global clients.

SAP S/4HANA is the fourth version of the SAP ERP Business Suite (Enterprise Resource Planning). This new SAP S/4 release only runs on SAP HANA database.

The HANA database allows the user community within your organization to get real-time access to data for daily operational processes like planning and (for example) manufacturing and sales but also get real-time access to data for prediction and simulation purposes.

The straight answer is because your current SAP ECC support will run out by SAP AG by the end of 2027. However, to zoom in deeper it will give your own company also the opportunity to get ready for the future, to get ready for further digitalization. In other words, critical review of your own business processes, data platform, effectiveness level of your own organization and IT landscape and check whether this is all future-proof and harmonized pays-off and now is the right moment!

Basically you now have one operation ERP platform supported by one data source, larger data in one system saves you hardware costs. It also simplifies your IT landscape and this reduces cost of ownership. SAP S/4 HANA is more user friendly in providing specific integrated apps for user interaction (Fiori). SAP S/4 provides better standards for integrating non-SAP applications with SAP platform.

Also the deployment flexibility in running SAP on the cloud, on premise or hybrid solution  adds business and IT benefits.

Unfortunately there is no single correct answer to this question, however from a technical perspective the migration can be done in 8-12 months.

There is always a but, you need to realize that the success criteria for SAP S/4 implementations depends on how well your organization has been prepared for this migration. How mature are your business processes, how standardized and harmonized are your ways of working, your data structures used and how adoptable to change is your organization? How does your current IT landscape looks like, etc. etc.. 

More important is to understand what are the key success factors, dependencies, risks and how to manage these in an integrated way.
