RISE with SAP

What is the concept of RISE with SAP?

ISE with SAP portfolio of cloud services provided by SAP, as well as an implementation approach (RISE with SAP methodolodgy), whose operation is focused around SAP customers who have already previously established a relationship with the software vendor, offering them support in migrating their system to a cloud environment, but also for new customers expecting scalability and flexibility. With its help, cloud systems from SAP are implemented: in SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud and SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud. It also makes it possible to safely move an enterprise to a cloud environment when the support time for the products they are using ends. RISE with SAP provides the applications, platforms, tools and services needed to drive innovation, automate and streamline processes, and simplify network connectivity. Companies that choose this implementation approach also gain transparency and easy access to data. RISE with SAP also offers artificial intelligence-based recommendations that are essential for continuous process improvement and employee empowerment.

Regardless of the choice of subscription type (Private or Public Cloud) when implementing RISE with SAP, customers get access to the full range of SAP S/4HANA Cloud services. This includes areas such as financial management, sales management, supply chain management and functions that support enterprise performance analysis, driving growth for the company and its employees. In addition, depending on the package the company is equipped with, users gain the ability to use add-ons provided by the SAP vendor (these include, for example, SAP Business Technology Platform, SAP Analytics Cloud) and other built services, tools and extensions for business process analysis.

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud is a new generation of cloud ERP systems based on artificial intelligence. Keep up with the changes and grow globally with Hicron!

What is SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud?

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud is a computing cloud service that enables the use of the SAP S/4HANA system on infrastructure delivered by a software provider. This solution eliminates the need to install and run the SAP system on the Client’s infrastructure. In this hosting model, the responsibility for installation, management, updates, and support are transferred from the Client to the service provider, SAP. As a result, the obligation to ensure the continuity of the system’s operation is on their side.

RISE with SAP is the path to digital business transformation.

What is the difference between SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition and Private Edition?

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud and SAP S/4HANA Private Cloud are cloud-based solutions that take full advantage of the capabilities of the SAP HANA database. However, they are separate products with different uses.

How to choose the public or private cloud version for RISE with SAP?

Existing SAP ERP Clients who choose to migrate to the cloud, but do not want to go through the entire upgrade process, should opt for SAP S/4 HANA Private Edition, allowing them to keep their current investments in the existing SAP ERP landscape.

For new and existing SAP Clients who want to migrate to the cloud and replace their current ERP solutions, SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud, which allows for complete process redesign, would be a better fit. It is the right choice for companies ready to transform into smart enterprises with an ERP future in a predefined system.

To support the Client in making this decision, SAP introduces the Digital Discovery Assessment tool, which allows for a quick assessment of the Client’s current processes, system landscape, and organization development strategy. The result of the analysis is an SAP recommendation, on the basis of which Hicron supports Clients in choosing the best version of SAP S/4 HANA Cloud and adapting it to individual needs.

The analysis is facilitated by SAP tools, such as:

• Value Lifecycle Manager – report that indicates which areas can be improved by implementing S/4 HANA and what benefits have been achieved by companies from similar industries using this solution.
• Best Practices Explorer – preconfigured variant of the system with assigned user roles and test scripts, which facilitates the initial analysis of the company’s processes.
• Total Cost of Ownership Calculator – analysis of upfront and future costs associated with the implementation of the system in various options (e.g., cloud or on-premise).

If your organization is facing the choice of SAP S/4 HANA Private Cloud or SAP S/4 HANA Public Cloud, please contact us to arrange a free Digital Discovery Assessment session. Our consultants will guide you through the process by asking the right questions. The product of the meeting will be a report with a recommendation of the best RISE with SAP version for your organization.

Business Networks

Access to Business Networks, guaranteed as part of the RISE with SAP offer, is a benefit that makes the road to business transformation much easier and more efficient. Among other things, it provides access to:

• SAP Digital Supplier Network – cloud service where various parties to a transaction (e.g. vendor, customer, forwarder) can view orders, check their status, or register an invoice. This improves communication and speeds up the order fulfillment process.
• SAP Asset Intelligent Network – allows data from up to 200 Client’s devices to be synchronized with the producer’s database. This will ensure that all information published by the producer (job instructions, service plan, schematics, etc.) will be downloaded to these devices. The greatest benefit is the instant flow of information – every change, software update, or new published document is immediately sent to the paired devices.
• SAP Logistics Business Network – network intended for vendors and forwarders. It allows you to search for forwarders’ offers, negotiate rates, update the status of goods, track them, and make the entire process transparent. Thus, it improves transport cooperation and strengthens supply chains.

The components included in RISE with SAP allow for a coordinated redesign of business processes. Thanks to the Business Process Intelligence methodology based on the experience of over 400,000 clients from 25 industries, the performance of the implemented business processes can be analyzed. Using tools such as Signavio, the Client can compare processes to industry standards and easily adapt them to new requirements and needs.
