How many SAP users does your organisation have?
User count is one of the primary cost drivers. It affects licensing, training, change management, and testing scope.

💻
What is your current SAP landscape complexity?
Number of SAP instances, modules, and countries affects migration scope.
Single instance, 1-3 modules, one country
Single instance, multiple modules, few countries
Multiple instances, many modules, multi-country
Global template with 5+ instances and 10+ countries
Question 3 of 8
✍️
How much custom ABAP code (Z-code) exists in your system?
Custom code remediation is typically 40-60% of total migration cost. Every custom program must be evaluated, refactored, or replaced.
Minimal (under 500 custom objects)
Moderate (500 to 2,000 custom objects)
Heavy (2,000 to 10,000 custom objects)
Extreme (over 10,000 custom objects)
Question 4 of 8
🔌
How many third-party integrations connect to your SAP system?
Every integration must be re-validated and potentially rebuilt for S/4HANA. API changes and data model differences affect all connected systems.
Under 10 integrations
10 to 30 integrations
30 to 100 integrations
Over 100 integrations
Question 5 of 8
🚀
What migration approach are you considering?
System conversion (brownfield) preserves history but carries technical debt. New implementation (greenfield) is clean but requires data migration and full re-testing.
System conversion (brownfield)
Convert existing ECC to S/4HANA in place
New implementation (greenfield)
Fresh S/4HANA build with data migration
Selective data transition (bluefield)
Hybrid approach with selective data and process migration

☁️
What deployment model are you targeting?
RISE with SAP bundles infrastructure and application. On-premise gives control but requires infrastructure investment. Each has different licensing and cost structures.
RISE with SAP (managed cloud)
On-premise S/4HANA
Hyperscaler (AWS, Azure, GCP) self-managed

Question 7 of 8
💼
How will you resource the migration project?
System integrator costs are typically the largest budget item. Internal resources reduce cost but extend timelines.
Full outsource to a Tier 1 SI (Accenture, Deloitte, IBM, etc.)
Tier 2/boutique SI with some internal resources
Primarily internal team with selective SI support
Fully internal team
Question 8 of 8
📅
What is your target go-live timeline?
Compressed timelines cost more due to parallel workstreams and premium resource rates. Longer timelines reduce risk but extend costs.
Under 12 months (accelerated)
12 to 18 months
18 to 36 months
Over 36 months (phased approach)
