Leave SAP without the horror story — coexistence until every gate passes.

Ask around about SAP migrations and you'll collect horror stories the way others collect frequent-flyer miles. This profile exists so yours isn't one: objects mapped with coverage tests, connectors matured through readback verification, history carried with lineage — and the legacy system running until reconciliation proves each domain safe to switch.

Migration stages

Each stage below proves before proceeding — the legacy system runs until the evidence says otherwise.

section: stages

Map

Objects, routes, and integrations inventory with per-item verdicts: adopt natively, wrap compatibly, or rebuild under governance. Nothing unmapped proceeds.

Prove

Connectors mature through readback verification, authorization evidence, and conformance tests. Drift control watches every adapter for behavioral change.

Cut Over

Reconciliation gates prove before/after equality per domain before switching. History migrates with lineage so audits cross the boundary intact.

Profile guarantees

- Complete mapping: Routes, objects, and integrations mapped with coverage tests per platform
- Mature connectors: polyMAX adapters versioned with drift control and readback verification
- Safe cutover: Reconciliation gates proving before/after equality before any domain switches

Migration by industry

Migration pressure bends per industry — same proof gates, different legacy estates.

section: industries

Manufacturing

SAP and Oracle shop-floor estates with MES integrations migrate domain by domain — orders and inventory first, planning and costing after reconciliation proves.

Distribution

Legacy WMS and EDI estates map with partner profiles versioned. Transaction continuity holds across cutover weekends with fallback positions staged.

Professional Services

PSA and time-tracking estates with open engagements migrate mid-flight: WIP, backlogs, and billing schedules carry over with lineage intact.

SAP Migration Profile questions

Section 1

Do we have to rip and replace SAP?

No. Coexistence profiles map existing data and workflows into XRP while SAP keeps running. Cutover happens only after reconciliation gates pass.

Section 2

What about custom SAP extensions?

Extensions inventory with mapping verdicts per object: native adoption, compatibility wrapper, or governed rebuild — each with its own evidence gate.

Section 3

We've been burned by a migration before. Why is this different?

Because nothing switches on a date — domains switch on evidence. Ask for the reconciliation report of any domain before approving its cutover; the gates are yours to inspect, not ours to assert.

content section

value: Migration is a data import with evidence, not an application rewrite. Coexistence runs until reconciliation proves the cutover safe — domain by domain, with each gate recorded and reviewable.
