Director in Manufacturing, 1,001 - 5,000 employees

Completely aligned but not completely funded. We spend extensive time getting alignment. However we have never received funding for 100% of what the business is asking for. Typically we get funding for about 50%. Then after first quarter if IT projects are going well and businesses are making their financial targets we might get 10-20% more. This repeats each quarter. If the business is doing poorly that 50% gets cut

When the business’s needs exceed the abilities of the internal IT team, outsourcing IT is a better solution than giving the internal team more resources.

We are about to embark on ECC to S/4HANA migration, and SAP is pushing us strongly towards RISE. They delivered a business case for us, and they are presenting cases of successful RISE migrations. On the other hand, our experience with handing over any support or project execution to SAP (e.g. BTP or SAC Cloud Foundry migrations, Success Factors and Ariba configurations) in the last 2-3 years has been very negative. Can anyone with hands-on experience with RISE share their journey? Contrary to what SAP is showing us, I am interested in challenges and complications that may arise in project execution, particularly in the quality of support they provide during the migration and in BAU.
