SAP Due Diligence.

Clarity Before You Commit

Whether you’re acquiring a business, changing SAP support providers, preparing for investment or taking on an existing SAP landscape, you need a clear understanding of what you’re inheriting. SAP often supports an organisation’s most critical business processes, yet while financial and legal due diligence are standard practice, the technology estate can receive far less attention. The result? Unexpected costs, operational disruption and investment requirements that only become clear when it’s too late.

Understand the risks. Identify the opportunities
Move forward with certainty.

Birchman’s independent SAP due diligence provides a clear, practical view of your current environment in a single, focused assessment. We evaluate the health of your SAP estate, identify key risks and highlight opportunities for improvement, while also assessing whether the landscape is ready to support future business objectives. The outcome is straightforward, evidence based insight that supports smarter commercial decisions, smoother transitions and fewer unexpected costs during or after a transaction, investment or service change.

Business and
ERP Landscape

We build a clear picture of how SAP supports the organisation, including the systems, business processes and dependencies that matter most.

Technical
Health Check

We assess the condition, performance and maintainability of the SAP environment, identifying issues that could affect stability, availability or future investment.

SAP
Architecture

We review the overall solution architecture to understand its complexity, scalability and alignment with the organisation’s future technology strategy.

We assess how the SAP estate is managed and supported, including service performance, governance, skills, processes and supplier arrangements.
