Beyond the Brownfield Minefield: How to Make Your S/4HANA Migration a True Transformation 

Date: Thursday, 26 February 2026

Time: 10–11 am GMT (60 minutes)

Format: Live webinar + Q&A

With the 2027 ECC deadline closing in, now is the time to pick your path: conversion or transformation?

Most S/4HANA programs are being scoped and sold as fast, templated conversions. Critical transformation elements get pushed out of scope, leaving you with a compliant system but the same problems.

During this webinar, we’ll call out the pitfalls of conversion-only programs, explain why they happen, and share practical steps to turn your move to S/4HANA into a catalyst for real value — reimagining processes, roles, controls, and data to change how your business runs for the better.

Who should attend

CIOs, CISOs, CFOs, SAP Program Directors, Enterprise Architects, IT Security/GRC leads, Finance Operations leaders, and transformation sponsors who refuse to settle for ‘lift-and-shift.’

What you’ll gain

• Take control of your move to S/4HANA: Get the knowledge, reassurance, and support you need to pursue the S/4 transformation path that meets your needs and maximizes ROI.

• Avoid the lift-and-shift trap: Learn why conversion-only programs fail to deliver business value — and how to avoid ending up with a shiny new system that runs the same old problems.

• Decode market incentives: Understand why SAP and SIs push conversion as the default path, and how those incentives shape your options (and risks).

• Get ahead of hidden risks: Discover the security, compliance, and operational pitfalls of a conversion-only approach — like broken Fiori UX, SoD conflicts, and inflated licensing exposure — and how to avoid them.

• Build a transformation blueprint: Get practical steps to turn your migration into a true business transformation through process redesign, security-by-design, and integration of high-value capabilities.
