Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestitures
Realign your IT landscape after M&A activity with Scarliscape expert’s.
Businesses evolve and change with mergers and divestitures regularly. Scarliscape knows how to help with these complex projects at every step in the process.
Why Core SAP Expertise?
ompanies make merger, acquisition, and restructuring decisions for a variety of business and strategic reasons, but unfortunately the impact on the supporting IT landscapes is often an afterthought.
A merger or acquisition means that ERP and other different IT systems need to be consolidated, harmonized, or replaced in order to realize the strategic objectives of the new organization.
Conversely, a divestiture typically leads to a carve-out of portions of a system landscape. This includes the complex process of determining which data sets go with the divested business and which remain. It also entails realigning the remaining part of the system landscape.
Internal organizational changes, such as consolidating business units, creating a global shared services organization, and numerous other initiatives require commensurate realignments and transformations of the underlying systems and infrastructure components.

Template-based Global/Local Rollouts
Rollout programs are complex projects that require an experienced partner to bridge the gap between global and local requirements and enforce or define local standards. With combined decades of experience, Scarliscape’s SAP consultants have the expertise needed to help you start your rollout program as soon as possible.
Avoid common pitfalls of global or local rollouts using Scarliscape’s proven methodology.
Why Core SAP Expertise?
Before rolling out SAP programs, your business has to comply with a variety of different requirements. Scarliscape can help.
Rolling out SAP programs that comply with global and local requirements is a complex process fraught with potential pitfalls. Lots of things can go wrong. For example, making a change that impacts businesses that are already life can cause operational chaos. Allowing so much local change that you end up with completely unique processes at each facility, which impedes globalization and harmonization. This can result in duplication of materials, inventory, customers, and vendors – all of which can cost the organization time and money.
Scarliscape mitigates this risk by utilizing its proven methodology, templates, accelerators, and years of experience. Scarliscape provides proprietary ready-to-use templates for governance structures, process flows, and master data. This ensures that all requirements and standards are met, thus reducing project duration. In one example, a manufacturing business acquired a new company with its own manufacturing facility. Typically, it would take 9-12 months to get the new company onto an SAP system. Scarliscape, using its toolkit, had the company operational on SAP in five months.
Scarliscape experts have completed hundreds of successful SAP projects just like this one for organizations of every size, industry, and, geographic location. We’re here to help you bridge the gap between different global and local requirements and protect the core template at all costs, while still allowing for essential localization.
Scarliscape provides ready-to-use concepts for template governance structures. This ensures that all requirements and standards are met, keeping downtime to a minimum.
Another potential pitfall is local business units who are trying to resist change and remain autonomous from the larger group by making claims about local legal requirements.
To avoid this, Scarliscape uses a ‘Show and Tell’ method – showing business units the business processes in the template and telling them how they will operate going forward. This approach, paired with Scarliscape’s experienced consultants who are familiar with legal localizations, can keep all of your different business units on the same page by minimizing customization and vastly reducing project durations.

Your business is constantly changing. Your SAP solution should adapt to support your needs.

To keep your business on the path to success, your SAP solution must be able to adapt to your changing business situation.
Making changes to a fully integrated ERP system can be daunting. It is essential that you have a partner who not only understands the complex nature of the software but also understands business processes.
