The challenges facing IT departments

What makes an information system hard to keep under control today.

Adopting standards

Cloud adoption has simplified infrastructure management and made IT more agile. Yet new constraints have appeared: following vendor roadmaps and adhering to standards such as RISE with SAP. The standard is imposed and must fit the company's own processes, data and systems, which requires a good understanding of the existing landscape and of the impact of changing models.

Technical debt

Over the years, project after project, your company has built an application landscape that meets the needs of its business. Unfortunately, this often meant custom developments or modifications to existing products. Every change becomes a project in its own right, costly and liable to hold back the other changes to the information system.

Heterogeneous systems

Cloud, on-premises systems, tools adopted outside the IT department, including artificial intelligence tools (shadow IT, shadow AI); every new component adds flows, dependencies and weak points, and even risks for information system security and data leakage.

Artificial intelligence

Uses are multiplying across the business; choose where it brings value, measure the productivity gains and scale up, integrate it into the information system and keep control of it, data included.

Cybersecurity

Every exposed system, every development, every account and every flow between systems is an attack surface, to be addressed by design.

Regulatory risks

Data protection, sector-specific obligations, audit requirements; compliance is won in the architecture as much as in the procedures.

Cost control

The move to the cloud and the variety of solutions multiply billing units, making the IT budget hard to control. Understanding pay-per-use billing models requires a good grasp of the various technical stacks, and thought on how to get the most out of each subscription.

What EasyCompute brings you

An independent consulting firm in information system architecture and strategy, with an overall view, from the cloud to applications, and strong expertise in SAP platforms. For a concrete result: a clear target, risks identified early, secure go-lives.

Controlled evolutions

Adopt the standards of software vendors and the cloud, such as RISE with SAP, starting from your existing landscape: what to keep, what to replace, what to simplify, with your integrations and data under control at every step. Technical debt shrinks from project to project instead of piling up.

A comprehensive and pragmatic approach

A long-term target broken down into realistic steps, covering all your systems and applications. Cybersecurity and compliance by design, artificial intelligence where it brings measurable value.

Lower costs, with no loss of service

Review of billing models and service contracts, archiving of data that weighs systems down, automation of repetitive tasks: the running cost of the information system falls for good.

Experience of high-stakes programmes

Transformations in large international groups, and crisis management: a drifting programme, a go-live off to a bad start.

A cross-cutting view, from technology to business stakes

Every technical choice tied to what it commits for the business (cost, risk, lead time, compliance) and turned into a decision for the leadership.

Areas of expertise

An offering that covers the information system, with strong expertise in SAP platforms.

SAP S/4HANA

Conversions and new implementations on RISE Private or Public Edition, or on a hyperscaler under the customer's own management. Target scoping, Private or Public Cloud Edition, before commitment. Clean core extensions and integrations on SAP BTP, and challenging the integrator on its prerequisites.

Integration and extensibility

SAP BTP and Integration Suite, flow patterns, clean core. Trade-offs between standard, in-app and side-by-side extensions for the 20 % outside the standard.

Cloud and infrastructure

Move to the Azure cloud, landing zone, sizing, flow security and encryption. Managed services and service transitions.

Technical leadership and IT operations

Leading programmes and technical scopes: teams, managed service providers, service levels, budget. Coordination of the Basis, infrastructure, ABAP and integration streams; steering integrators; cutover, hypercare and transition to run.

On every engagement, security and regulatory compliance (GxP) are built in by design, with a technical security review of SAP systems, and artificial intelligence is handled at architecture level: framing the uses, integration into the information system, data governance.

Areas of engagement

EasyCompute works with the IT department in three modes, over a whole trajectory or on a specific phase.

Advisory

Framing the target and its feasibility before commitment, while the choices of approach and target can still change. Architecture review, challenging integrators and vendors, securing the go-live and the transition to run. The decision stays with the company.

Technical leadership

Taking on the technical leadership of an S/4HANA programme or of an IT scope, infrastructure and SAP, on an interim basis or for the duration of the programme, with the responsibility that goes with it: teams, integrators, managed service providers, budget.

Crisis management

A drifting programme, a go-live off to a bad start, an accelerated service transition, a vacant technical leadership. Fast intervention, a diagnosis within two weeks, then taking back control.

What makes the difference

  • 30 years of experience: varied situations, from design to crisis management, in large international companies.
  • A cross-cutting knowledge: technical skills, from platform to architecture, combined with an understanding of business stakes.
  • Hands-on expertise: information system architecture, SAP platforms, cloud and security, practised in the field.

Methodology

Three pillars for recommendations that are fact-based, actionable and followed through over time.

1. Analysing your existing landscape

Start from your information system as it is, not from a theoretical model.

  • Mapping of applications, flows and dependencies.
  • Measuring technical debt: versions, custom developments, end of maintenance.
  • Review of system exposure and security.
  • Reading of contracts and operating costs.

Outcome: a prioritised assessment, shared with your teams, on which the roadmap is built.

2. Command of market tools and technologies

Choose and combine the right building blocks, without needless vendor lock-in.

  • Cloud: landing zone, flow security, encryption, cost control.
  • Artificial intelligence: custom code analysis and documentation, data reconciliation.
  • SAP Cloud ALM: end-to-end monitoring, control of change and releases.
  • RISE with SAP, SAP BTP, Integration Suite: reconciling the standard with your ecosystem.

3. Specific tooling

In-house tools to go faster and further than a manual review.

  • Security audit configurable to your scope and frameworks.
  • Ad hoc deliverables: monitoring dashboards, automation of recurring tasks.
  • Identification of quick wins.
