De-risking Data Migration
De-risking Data Migration
Every step of a data migration exercise raises concerns: What happens if confidential information is accessed by the wrong people? If supplier requests can not be processed? If individuals after go-live have limited or no access to vital business information?
The implications are widespread – from safeguarding IP to staff morale and trust in the project, and operational efficiency.
Traditional methods of SAP data migration are recognised to be high-risk, time-consuming and have the potential to derail a project.
Applexus take a different approach, one that not only de-risks the process but adds value by reducing the time to migrate and deliver fast, high-quality transaction-level data.

Introducing DATAMA
The one-stop tool for SAP data migration
Applexus's DATAMA toolchain provides easily deployable Extract, Transform, and Load utilities and has been used to deliver selective data migration into a new or existing SAP implementation for an acquisition in as little as six weeks, right through to multi-year SAP S/4HANA landscape transformation programmes in multi-national organisations.
The system has been built alongside years of data migration expertise and can be used with any source system or SAP to SAP. Typical source and target systems are simple files, spreadsheets, SAP systems, alternative software systems such as Maximo or Infor SunSystems, or databases such as Microsoft SQL Server.
As DATAMA can be used for a range of use cases in multi-national and local businesses, a range of technical deployment options are available to support the diverse range of data protection policies and scaling requirements.
SAP Mergers and Acquisitions
Transforming company portfolios or unlocking capital cannot be done without mergers, acquisitions and divestments. As companies journey towards a significantly altered structure, the importance of a strong ERP in maintaining business-critical operations is highlighted—as is the opportunity to leverage merger, acquisition, or divestment activity to redefine your ERP systems. With an extensive track record, coupled with a wide variety of transition strategies and proprietary tools, Absoft are SAP experts in any Merger, Acquisition, or Divestment scenario.
Project Delivery
Timeframes for M&A and divestments are becoming ever-shorter as deal teams drive ever-more-challenging time-to-value deadlines. Absoft has unrivalled expertise in helping organisations on both sides of the deal shorten Transition Service Agreement timeframes, minimise operational disruption, and manage SAP migrations end-to-end.

our experience of how the migrated data supports critical business processes
our ability to fill or augment gaps in testing or training resourcing
and our expert Applexus technical teams expertise in standing up SAP environments for dry runs and for ongoing operations – on-premise or in the cloud.
Creating an SAP Reference System
Often associated with a SAP related acquisition or divestment is the requirement to create a SAP environment to support run-down or ongoing audit/reference activity. Financial audits, GDPR principles, and “Right-to-be-Forgotten” requests are all requirements that are ongoing for a period after the transition date. Being able to interrogate that data in the context of the original SAP system is an increasing requirement, and one that can be met cost-effectively by utilising the stand-up/take-down pay-per-use models available from cloud providers.
Applexus accelerate the creation of run-down/reference SAP environments using:
our relationships with the main cloud providers
our tailored SAP technical manage service offering which makes sure the environment is available as needed
