Data migration is critical to business application transformations like moving to SAP S/4HANA, with substantial amounts of project time and money allocated to handling data. The 2023 American SAP User Group (ASUG) Pulse of the SAP Customer Research, which surveys members regarding SAP technology shows that the top barriers to upgrading technology include timeline extensions, cost, business process disruption, user adoption and quality issues. Additional findings show continued challenges with integration, with the top issue (28%) being data errors spreading.
Breaking down the silos that have traditionally defined the enterprise data management industry, the SKP provides a unified, cohesive enterprise data management platform in a single, cloud-based solution. Leveraging advanced machine learning and process automation, it helps streamline migration initiatives while maintaining high quality of data to help optimize and simplify customers cloud transformations. When moving to SAP S/4HANA, both the SKP and SAP Advanced Data Migration & Management handle SAP and third-party data, which is particularly critical for companies dealing with mergers & acquisitions or when they have other legacy systems to consolidate.
According to an IDC Business Value Study, customers using the SKP experienced significant business value and project benefits during their data migration projects, including:
- A 314% three-year return on investment with an average eight-month payback on investment
- $914,000 in reduced operating expenses
- A 98% reduction in unplanned downtime and 46% reduced time to complete data migration projects
