SAP's migration pitch always focuses on the licence and infrastructure cost. It never tells you about the £2M–£18M in SI fees, custom code remediation, test execution, data migration, and business change costs — or the 3–5 year implementation timeline that creates the real commercial exposure. This guide gives you the numbers SAP doesn't.
Instant access. No sales call required.
44 pages of cost analysis, case data, and strategic frameworks your SAP account team won't show you.
Beyond licence and infrastructure — full breakdown of SI fees, custom code remediation (ABAP adaptation costs), test execution budgets, data migration, and business change costs. Calibrated by deployment size.
RISE with SAP is not just a licence change — it is a long-term subscription lock-in with exit costs. We model the 5-year and 10-year total cost of RISE vs. on-premise TPS vs. selective cloud migration.
ABAP custom code remediation is the most underestimated cost in S/4HANA migrations. We analyse the custom code footprint in typical ECC landscapes, SAP's own remediation tool (ABAP Test Cockpit) output, and realistic remediation budgets.
SAP Business Technology Platform is positioned as the integration layer for S/4HANA. Organisations with PI/PO landscapes face a full integration rebuild — we model BTP integration costs and compare against maintaining PI/PO under TPS.
For organisations with stable ECC landscapes and no strategic case for S/4HANA features, TPS delivers 60–65% support cost reduction without a migration project. Full TPS coverage analysis including custom ABAP and integration layer.
A structured framework for evaluating S/4HANA migration vs. TPS on current ECC vs. selective cloud adoption. Includes the 7 questions every IT and finance leader should answer before committing to a migration programme.
44 pages covering the full commercial landscape of SAP cloud migration — from initial licence and infrastructure cost through to post-go-live operational cost and strategic optionality.
"We were 6 months from signing an £8M S/4HANA migration programme when we ran the full cost model in this guide. The TPS alternative analysis showed we could achieve the same cost objective — 60% support cost reduction — without the migration risk. We switched to GoVendorFree TPS and redirected the capex to growth."
"The RISE with SAP TCO model in this guide was the most honest analysis we'd seen. Our SAP account team had modelled RISE at 12% above current on-premise cost. The guide showed our 5-year RISE cost was 2.4× our current landscape under TPS. The board made the right decision."
