With over two decades of SAP experience spanning five continents, this session focuses on large-scale rollouts and transformations in industries including automotive, manufacturing, and non-profits. It examines common challenges—such as stakeholder misalignment, master data gaps, and high-stakes cutovers—that influence how organisations balance technical precision with business outcomes. The session will share lessons on driving collaboration, fostering adaptability, and establishing clear governance to address complex issues and ensure continuity. These practices have consistently enabled faster delivery, smoother transitions, and award-winning implementations—demonstrating how challenges can be turned into opportunities for growth and improvement.
