SAP S/4HANA System Conversion for Life Sciences

If your business already runs SAP, upgrading to SAP S/4HANA might be easier than you think. You don’t have to start from scratch, with a brand new implementation and a redesign of every business process with a SAP S/4HANA system conversion for life siences. With NTT DATA Business Solutions, your ERP can be upgraded without losing historic data or changing the workflows you’ve perfected, with almost no staff retraining. 

Of course, SAP system conversions aren’t one-size-fits-all, so we’ve developed an approach specifically for life sciences and pharma companies, which we call ‘Validated Move’. Read on to learn how the validated move process works, the benefits of a system conversion over alternatives, as well as the benefits of moving with NTT DATA Business Solutions, which include a fixed schedule and budget, and more.

Validated Move is a system conversion process for any life science organization that already uses SAP (for example, SAP ECC 6.0). We’ve upgraded systems for nearly every type of pharma and life science organizations, including Medtech, Blood Plasma, Biotech, Cosmetics, API Processing, and Over-The-Counter Drugs. The upgrade occurs on the back-end, so employees can use software exactly as they did prior, without the need for retraining. While the processes you’ve perfected remain the same, interfaces can be upgraded for a better user experience. New functionality can be added too. Take what you need, and leave what you don’t, for a truly custom ERP.

Making the transition as smooth as possible is our priority, so we employ an in-house validation team to extensively test every function we build, well before it’s live. Our process has been proven many times over, which means we can offer a fixed price and guaranteed timelines.

SAP S/4HANA is an ERP designed for an accelerating world. Productivity was once limited by the speed of software updates, but machine learning is now a mainstream technology. This means that companies can scale their productivity faster than ever, as algorithms uncover trends in huge pools of data, and act upon them automatically. Simply put, SAP S/4HANA is the first ERP built without an end date in mind. So if your competitors are already making use of artificial intelligence, or you’re ready to lead the way, the time to upgrade is now.
