During SAP Sapphire 2025 in Orlando, Christensen spoke with ERP Today’s Mark Vigoroso on why in an enterprise world where 20 or more instances are not uncommon, Jabil stands out with successfully running a majority of its operations on just two SAP instances across its 135 global sites.

“We’re consolidating even further,” Christensen noted. “And that simplicity is a strategic asset—it’s what gives us the ability to respond to tariffs, chip shortages, or pandemics in real time.”

That ability to respond swiftly and intelligently underpins Jabil’s definition of resilience. SAP, acting as the company’s single system of record for supply chain data, enables real-time analytics and scenario modeling across operations. During the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent supply chain turbulence, this data backbone allowed Jabil to make instant adjustments and reconfigure supply models—without waiting 12 hours for an analyst to re-run reports.

“It may sound simple, but having the right data at the right time changed how we survived disruption,” Christensen said. “That’s what resilience looks like.”

From Bottleneck to Breakthrough

GH Power knew its existing methods for managing critical financial information were outdated. This resulted in a lack of clear visibility and control over its financial data, which was frustrating and meant potential opportunities were slipping through the company’s fingers. Moreover, preparing for audits felt like navigating a labyrinth.

The company needed a modern foundation to help it resolve its current headaches and scale, keeping its ambitious green energy goals in mind. To achieve this goal, GH Power selected Nextworld.

Nextworld helped GH Power overhaul its legacy setup with remarkable results, especially in terms of the speed of modernizing the platform. This wasn’t one of those typical projects where major system modernization drags on for endless months. In close partnership with the adept team at AITO, a Nextworld partner, GH Power transitioned from its old system to fully live on the Nextworld platform in just 53 days. That is less than two months to revolutionize a core operational framework.

A Win with No-Code

How did they achieve such a lightning-fast deployment? Nextworld’s next-generation, no-code architecture was a game-changer. This approach neatly sidestepped the prolonged disruptions typically associated with significant technology upgrades.

GH Power strategically utilized Nextworld’s packaged applications for essential functions like managing their general ledger, streamlining procurement, and handling accounts payable workflows. This allowed the company to automate key processes and enhance operational efficiency almost from day one.

The impact was immediate and profound. By centralizing its financial data within the Nextworld platform, GH Power gained the crystal-clear visibility it desperately needed. Audits, once a source of dread, became quicker and more accurate.

According to Dave Chin, CPA, CA, Vice President of Finance at GH Power, his team needed a technology platform that kept pace with their needs. Nextworld gave them the tools they needed to innovate and adapt while setting up the team to scale in the future.

AITO also played a pivotal role. Its deep understanding of Nextworld’s capabilities and GH Power’s unique requirements ensured a customized approach.

Dave Baker, Applications and Project Manager at AITO, noted that his team was confident that the Nextworld platform would drive substantial value for GH Power in the future.

A Future-Ready Company

GH Power isn’t resting on its laurels. On its roadmap is the development of custom applications to meticulously track its production of thermal energy, green hydrogen, and alumina—all crucial to its mission to combat global warming.

The company also plans to create a bespoke application module to translate its carbon offset potential into carbon certificates, aiding GH Power’s global customers in their decarbonization efforts.

What This Means for ERP Insiders

Redefine agility, not just manage it. Traditional systems often focus on managing existing processes within established boundaries. However, a no-code platform like the one implemented by Nextworld for GH Power empowers professionals to create true agility. They can rapidly build and deploy new solutions or adapt existing ones as business needs pivot, slashing timelines from potential months or years to weeks or days.

Shift from gatekeeper to value enabler. An IT professional’s deep understanding of business processes and data is invaluable, and no-code platforms can transform IT professionals from being perceived as gatekeepers of complex, rigid systems into direct enablers of business innovation. It can help organizations gain the power to directly configure, extend, and even build custom applications with significantly less reliance on scarce, specialized coding talent, putting creative solutions directly into the hands of those who understand the needs best.

Scale with confidence and increase your ROI. Future-proofing an organization’s operations is about weathering the next mandatory upgrade cycle and building inherent adaptability. A no-code approach allows organizations to design and implement unique, scalable functionalities, like GH Power’s custom energy tracking and future carbon certificate applications. This means businesses can seamlessly extend their operational capabilities and address niche requirements without the complexity, cost, and risks typically associated with customizing or overhauling traditional ERP environments.

The post From SAP ECC to S/4HANA: The Journey to Cloud ERP Inspiration appeared first on ERP Today.

In an interview with ERP Today, Thomas Failer, CEO of Data Migration International, argues that the time to migrate to SAP S/4HANA is not approaching—it is here.

The Tangled Web of Legacy Data

According to Failer, the pervasive problem of legacy data lies at the heart of the urgency. He explains: “Decades of operational history often reside within SAP ECC systems, much of it outdated, redundant, and unstructured. This digital baggage acts as a significant anchor, inflating costs, creating compliance nightmares, and severely hindering digital transformation initiatives.”

Moreover, maintaining these sprawling legacy environments consumes a lion’s share of IT budgets – often as high as 60-80% – leaving scant resources for strategic innovation. The sheer volume of this data slows down system performance, complicates upgrades, and makes extracting meaningful insights a herculean task.

Failer added, “Legacy data is often riddled with inconsistencies, duplicates, and quality issues. This “dirty data” undermines the accuracy of analytics, cripples the potential of AI and automation, and leads to flawed decision-making.”

Due to these factors, compliance becomes a precarious tightrope walk as outdated systems struggle to meet evolving regulatory demands like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), exposing businesses to hefty fines and reputational damage. The lack of proper data governance and retention management within legacy ECC systems makes audits and legal discovery processes costly and time-consuming.

Clean Core and the Imperative of Clean Data

Failer points to a compelling alternative to solve this problem: SAP’s strategic direction, embodied in the “Clean Core” and “Composable Enterprise” vision. “This future-ready architecture emphasizes a modular, flexible, and agile approach to enterprise resource planning,” he notes. “The Clean Core advocates for a standardized, lean digital foundation in SAP S/4HANA, minimizing customizations and ensuring seamless upgrades, while the Composable Enterprise envisions a landscape of interoperable business capabilities that can be assembled and reassembled as needed.”

“Dirty data” undermines the accuracy of analytics.

However, the realization of this transformative vision is intrinsically linked to the quality of the underlying data. “You simply cannot build a Clean Core on a foundation of dirty, outdated data,” Failer says. “Migrating massive volumes of legacy baggage into SAP S/4HANA defeats the purpose, bloating the system and perpetuating existing inefficiencies.”

Similarly, a Composable Enterprise relies on consistent, high-quality data flowing seamlessly between its modular components. Thus, fragmented or unreliable data undermines the agility and flexibility this architecture promises.

The JiVS Solution

Data Migration International (DMI) offers a powerful solution to navigate this complex transition: the JiVS Information Management Platform (IMP). Failer states, “JiVS provides a strategic and intelligent approach to managing legacy data, enabling businesses to break free from the constraints of their SAP ECC systems and embrace SAP S/4HANA with confidence.”

The core principle of JiVS is the separation of historical data from active applications. Instead of a “lift and shift” approach that blindly migrates everything, JiVS extracts all legacy data (SAP and non-SAP) at the application layer, preserving its full business context. This data is then securely archived in a legally compliant and audit-proof manner. This means businesses retain 100% access to their historical data for audits, compliance, and operational needs, even after the legacy ECC system is decommissioned.

“With the historical data safely managed, JiVS enables businesses to selectively migrate only the necessary, high-quality data to SAP S/4HANA,” Failer says. “This targeted approach drastically reduces data volume – often by up to 90% – streamlining the migration process, accelerating timelines, and significantly lowering costs.”

DMI estimates that JiVS can reduce overall IT operating costs by up to 80% by enabling the retirement of expensive legacy systems and optimizing data storage. Furthermore, JiVS incorporates automated data quality analysis and cleansing, ensuring that only clean, relevant, and enriched data makes its way into the new SAP S/4HANA environment. “This supports SAP’s Clean Core principles and lays a solid foundation for leveraging advanced analytics, AI, and automation,” adds Failer.

Overall, the solution’s benefits include:

• Exceptional data transfer speed up to 30TB/day
• Zero business disruption and no downtime
• No need for costly or lengthy pre-projects
• More than 3,000 successful projects worldwide and a robust global partner network
• Over 3,000 supported business objects

The Fast Track to Freedom

The transformative power of DMI’s approach is evident in the success stories of companies that have embraced JiVS. Failer shares the compelling example of a leading automotive company that successfully retired its SAP ECC system in only four months.

JiVS provides a strategic and intelligent approach to managing legacy data.

He notes that faced with the looming 2030 deadline and the burden of a complex legacy landscape, the company partnered with DMI to implement JiVS. “By separating and archiving their vast historical data, we could significantly reduce the scope and complexity of their SAP S/4HANA migration, allowing them to transition to the modern platform at an unprecedented speed, freeing them from the constraints of their legacy system, reducing IT costs, and gaining the agility needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving industry,” Failer says.

The Time for Action is Now

SAP’s vision for a Clean Core and Composable Enterprise offers a path to agility and innovation, but it demands a commitment to clean, high-quality data, which can be provided by DMI’s JiVS solution, which addresses the challenges of legacy data, streamlines SAP S/4HANA adoption, and unlocks significant cost savings. “The ticking clock is a clear call to action: businesses still on SAP ECC must act now to secure their future and embrace the transformative power of SAP S/4HANA,” Failer concludes.

What This Means for ERP Insiders

Historization prevents vendor lock-in and supports business agility. Recognize the strategic advantage of historization – separating and archiving historical data in a vendor-neutral format. By utilizing solutions like JiVS IMP, users gain independence from the core operational system for accessing and managing historical records. This prevents vendor lock-in, as your valuable historical data remains accessible even if you choose to migrate to a different ERP system in the future. Furthermore, having a readily accessible, well-governed historical data archive enhances business agility by providing a comprehensive and compliant data foundation for analytics, reporting, and responding to evolving business needs without impacting the performance or complexity of your active ERP system.

Accelerate SAP S/4HANA migration while ensuring compliance. To expedite your move to SAP S/4HANA and maintain robust compliance, prioritize the separation and secure archiving of historical data. Retaining historical data in an audit-proof environment separate from your active SAP S/4HANA system allows you to meet regulatory requirements without bogging down your new environment with legacy baggage.

Clean Core is impossible without clean data. Avoid the temptation of a “lift and shift” approach. Instead, invest in data cleansing and harmonization before migration. By ensuring that only clean, standardized data populates your SAP S/4HANA system, you can minimize customizations, streamline processes, and fully leverage the benefits of the Clean Core architecture, including easier upgrades and faster adoption of new innovations.

Combining Tech with Experience

The collaboration combines SAP’s advanced cloud technology with EY’s domain experience to provide businesses with data infrastructure embedded with AI capabilities. For SAP professionals, this development signals a significant evolution in how finance and related operations are delivered and managed in the cloud era.

“Through this collaboration with EY, we are excited to combine SAP’s leading cloud suite, enriched with Business AI capabilities, and EY teams’ deep domain and industry experience to help deliver better insights and drive better outcomes for customers,” said Thomas Saueressig, Member of the Executive Board of SAP SE, Customer Services & Delivery.

The heart of this offering is the combination of SAP S/4HANA Cloud and EY’s on-the-ground experience in finance and industry specifics. The partnership, therefore, provides a service layer to technology, with the former including elements like AI capabilities and a robust data infrastructure.

“The world’s most innovative companies with bold growth and transformation plans are often weighed down by non-core tasks, diverting valuable executive time and resources,” stated Raj Sharma, EY Global Managing Partner – Growth and Innovation.

He added, “The Integrated Finance Managed Services solution can provide companies with a new model, helping businesses operate more efficiently and enabling leaders to focus on what matters most. We believe this solution can fundamentally change how clients think about their enterprise functions.”

A Success Story

IntraBio Inc., a biopharmaceutical company, is an excellent example of how this offering helps industries. By offloading its finance, HR, and accounting heavy lifting to EY’s Integrated Finance Managed Services, IntraBio could hyper-focus on its core mission of developing life-saving treatments. The result? The company received FDA approval for its first product, followed by a successful market launch. That’s a tangible outcome directly linked to shedding operational burden.

This partnership underscores a broader movement in the SAP ecosystem—the increasing reliance on specialized partners to deliver implementations and ongoing, outcome-based services. It highlights the growing importance of cloud expertise, data governance know-how, and the ability to leverage AI for automation and insight.

The EY and SAP partnership gives a glimpse into the future of finance operations powered by intelligent technology and expert services. In this future, SAP professionals will be less consumed by routine tasks and more empowered to be strategic growth drivers.

What This Means for ERP Insiders

Integrated managed services are set to become the cavalry charge for SAP users. If your organization’s days are still bogged down in the trenches of manual processes, reconciliation nightmares, and keeping the lights on in a complex, on-premises world, the integrated managed services offered by SAP and EY can free up valuable time and resources to focus on strategies that truly drive business value. For SAP finance professionals, this trend towards managed services embedded with advanced technology like AI highlights a significant shift in how integrated technology and services operate.

Shift your focus upstream. This offering means companies are looking to offload the operational burden of running core finance and related SAP processes. For SAP users, this is a clear signal to develop skills in higher-value activities like financial planning & analysis, strategic business partnering, and leveraging the real-time data from SAP S/4HANA for insightful decision-making, rather than getting stuck in transactional details.

Managed services require different expertise. While the day-to-day system administration might be handled by the managed service provider, companies will still need SAP professionals who can effectively interact with the service provider, understand the underlying SAP S/4HANA Cloud capabilities, manage configurations, and ensure the service meets business requirements and compliance standards. Thus, for SAPinsiders, your role evolves from doing to managing and optimizing the service delivery.
