The fast track to public cloud ERP transformation

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Helping businesses that are new to SAP

Whether you’re a business looking for a new ERP solution, a spin-off or divestment under pressure to complete a carveout before a deadline, or a large organisation aiming to boost agility, PwC is here to help.

Why use SAP on public cloud?

SAP’s public cloud solution – SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition – offers a future-ready ERP complete with built-in automation, real-time reporting and best-in-class business processes, which help new customers implement SAP Business Suite with a streamlined, scalable approach.

Since it’s delivered through a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, clients can take advantage of new functionality as it’s released – as long as they retain a “clean core” by minimizing customization of key functionality.

    How big a priority is SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition?

    What is GROW with SAP? And why do clients partner with PwC to deliver it?

    SAP’s ambition is to move all of its customers to cloud based ERPOpens in a new window. SAP's GROW with SAP combines SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition with:

    • The SAP Business Technology Platform for application development, automation and innovation
    • Cutting-edge solutions, such as SAP Analytics Cloud
    • SAP learning resources and access to SAP Communities.

    How can PwC support your requirements?

    Deployment assessment

    Our deployment assessment helps determine whether SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition is the right fit for your business. It can also identify potential implementation challenges and complexities, so that we can help you address them upfront, and achieve a smoother deployment by leaning towards standard functionality where possible. We include this assessment in every implementation as standard.

    Our Cloud ERP Express solution provides a fast, cost-effective deployment option

    PwC’s Cloud ERP Express is a ready-to-use solution that supports core finance and controlling processes. It’s robust, lightweight and cost-effective. And it’s based on SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition.

    The core implementation takes just 8 weeks, and the solution can be expanded to support additional business areas and integrate with other systems.

      Get the most out of your investment in RISE with SAP

      We can help you get the best value from your investment in RISE with SAP in the short and long term. We aim to help you RISE with SAP and Transcend with PwC to create long-term value and build a stable foundation for future innovation.

      Here’s how:

      Art of the possible

      We can help you reduce legacy complexity and boost efficiency across your value chain.

      We can help you maximise insights and minimise costs by refining your AI strategy across SAP’s AI copilot Joule, adopting our Autocommenting solution that automates analysis of SAP financial data, and considering other AI tools.

      We can help your business become more nimble and more resilient to cope with volatility.

      We can help you build a more sustainable business by transforming master data, adopting a green ledger, managing climate risk and supporting regulatory compliance.

      We help you retain a “clean core” ERP by using standard functionality as far as possible, then building solutions to meet bespoke requirements in SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP). This makes future upgrades and enhancements much easier.

      We provide integrated solutions built on SAP industry edge systems to support sector-specific use cases.

      Our portfolio of tools, assets and automations reduces manual work and accelerates timelines. And our BXT Agile delivery combines design thinking and Agile principles to drive quick wins.

      Our “Show home” demonstrates the art of the possible and informs early decision-making.
