The long-term goal is SAP Business Suite

SAP is best known for its ERP applications. But it has significantly broadened its product portfolio, with powerful new offerings like:

  • SAP Business Data Cloud, which provides a central place for all enterprise data – structured and unstructured, SAP and non-SAP – to deliver greater visibility and a robust foundation for AI
  • SAP Business AI, which delivers AI that understands your business processes and data, including SAP’s copilot Joule
  • SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) – a platform engineered to integrate, automate, extend and build AI-supported business applications and processes across your enterprise

SAP Business Suite brings together SAP’s core ERP applications, data and AI capabilities. It’s the North Star, through which SAP delivers end-to-end, AI-enabled enterprise management.

RISE with SAP and GROW with SAP are the journeys to get you there

There are two main routes to SAP Business Suite:

  1. The RISE with SAP journey moves on-premises SAP ERP systems to private cloud (SAP Cloud ERP Private), letting you retain the custom functionality your business needs. It then enables you to tailor your transformation as you modernise your business with SAP Business Suite.
  2. The GROW with SAP journey moves you straight to SAP Cloud ERP Public – SAP’s public cloud, ready-to-run ERP that comes complete with built-in automation, embedded AI, real-time reporting and robust business processes. The aim is to start quickly with the minimum essentials, then gradually implement additional parts of SAP Business Suite to unlock more value.

Whatever your starting point, PwC can help

We support customers in many different scenarios, including:

  • Companies taking a “two tier” approach – keeping their core businesses on private cloud, while moving decentral, smaller subsidiaries or entities to public cloud to boost agility
  • Clients moving their entire businesses to public cloud
  • Companies aiming to get an implementation back on track
  • Organisations that migrated to SAP Cloud ERP Private swiftly as SAP terminates support for its older ECC applications, but are now looking to unlock more value
  • Mid-size companies looking for a scalable ERP with ready-to-run business processes and built-in AI

Wherever you’re coming from, we’ll help you choose the right path to help your business thrive today and long into the future.
