ECC to S/4HANA Migration

Get a detailed picture of what you are carrying into your SAP S/4HANA landscape

SAP SAP/4HANA gives your business a digital presence far ahead of SAP ECC. However, you need not rush ahead with migration just to stick to the deadline. Move with an evidence-backed roadmap of what is in your ECC system, which path is right for you, or what it will realistically cost.

Percipere answers all three questions before you commit to anything.

Why Some Are Still Waiting On The Sidelines

It is not the deadline. It is uncertainty.

Every business still on SAP ECC knows it needs to move. The 2030 mainstream support deadline is not news. What holds most organisations back is not awareness — it is three questions they cannot answer with confidence:

“What is in our ECC System”

10 to 20 years of process variants, custom Z-code, workarounds, and manual interventions have accumulated. Nobody has a clear picture of what is really running.

“Which migration path is right for us?”

Greenfield, brownfield, or data transition? Each has different cost, risk, and timeline implications. The wrong choice is expensive to reverse.

“What will this cost and how long will it take?”

Generic estimates are useless. The only way to get a number you can take to your board is to first know your actual landscape.

Percipere solves all three—before you commit to a migration path, a partner, or a budget.

Process Intelligence

ECC systems accumulate decades of process debt—workarounds that became workflows, custom code that nobody remembers writing, and data that has never been cleansed. Most organisations only discover this after migration, when it is expensive to fix.

Our Phase 0 assessment uses FUTUROOT, our AI-powered process intelligence platform, to surface exactly what is in your ECC landscape prior to you committing anything. The output is not a sales proposal. It is the evidence base you need to make the right decision and take it to your board.

The Three Migration Paths

Greenfield. Brownfield. Selective. We help you choose the right one.

There is no single right path to S/4HANA. The answer depends on your ECC landscape, operational complexity, timeline, and appetite for change. Percipere assesses all four before making a recommendation.

How We Start

Before we recommend anything, we assess everything.

A Phase 0 assessment is a focused, time-bound engagement — typically four to six weeks — that gives you and your board a clear, evidence-based picture of your migration options before you commit to anything.

Here is the roadmap:

How We Deliver the Migration

Phase 0 to go-live. Fixed scope. Named team. No surprises.
Once the path is agreed, Percipere owns the delivery — powered by PerciXpert, our AI-led implementation engine. PerciXpert replaces guesswork with evidence: a data-driven Phase 0, clean core architecture, and configuration that is right before go-live — not discovered to be wrong after it. Named team. Board-level governance. And we do not stop at go-live.

SAP Cloud ERP implementation
We implement SAP Cloud ERP (GROW with SAP or RISE with SAP, depending on your path) configured for your industry, processes, and team. Not a generic template. Not a lift-and-shift of what you had before.

FUTUROOT — AI-powered process intelligence throughout
FUTUROOT is not simply a Phase 0 tool. It runs continuously throughout implementation to prove that the new system mirrors your agreed process design — and post-go-live to drive continuous improvement. It is the evidence layer across the entire migration journey.

Integration and clean core
SAP Business Technology Platform smoothens the integrations with third-party systems, legacy applications, and building of operational tools without touching the clean core—protecting your investment and your upgrade path.

Change management and training
Technology is only half the challenge. Percipere embeds change management and user enablement into every implementation—because a system that nobody uses delivers no value.

PerciServe — post go-live managed services
Go-live is the beginning. PerciServe provides structured application management, preventive monitoring, and continuous improvement post-go-live—with a named team that already knows your implementation.

SAP ECC mainstream support end date

310 Plants. 407 Users. One Day. Zero Disruption.

Baramati Agro is a ₹6,000+ crore agro-industrial leader running six lines of business — sugar, poultry, animal feed, and food processing among them — across 310 plants and 15 fragmented SAP company codes built up over 15 years. Almost every transaction started outside SAP, in farmer apps, supplier portals, and banking platforms, which meant 10 external parties all had to be ready on the same day, or none of it would work.

Percipere engineered a Bluefield-hybrid migration to consolidate 15 company codes into 7, deployed FUTUROOT to cleanse and re-map hundreds of thousands of master records, and orchestrated all 10 external parties into a single, simultaneous Big Bang go-live — 310 plants and 407 users, live on day one, nine months from kickoff.
