PwC and SAP

Analytical transformation

With extensive experience managing enterprise data and implementing information-gathering tools such as SAP’ S/4HANA, PwC can develop a customised data program that meets the unique needs of your business. 

We specialise in advancing analytics operations enterprise-wide, from establishing a modern data and analytics technology architecture to defining processes around creating and using analytics and AI. 

PwC supports large-scale transformations and helps businesses move from insights to action, leveraging our business and industry knowledge to generate valuable insights from data. Our solution enables companies to transition from traditional business intelligence to more advanced analytics at any stage of the transformation journey. 

Don’t just collect data, let PwC help you put it to good use.

Finance transformation

Digital transformation is for most employees, including chief financial officers (CFOs) who need to keep track of large amounts of sensitive finance data. Using SAP’s S/4HANA, among other cloud-based solutions, PwC can help improve the real-time delivery of finance services, improve business performance monitoring, help CFOs better execute on company strategy and more.

We help our clients accelerate business benefits by transforming Finance, with technology as a key enabler. This means we transform finance operating models, creating the new enterprise data model, embedding process and performance excellence, providing capabilities and service delivery frameworks along with benchmarks. We enable these operating model changes with cloud ready working models in the key technologies.

PwC is a leader in this space with our global proposition, differentiating through the skills we bring, our focus on transformation, and our ability to architect the full client journey.

Procurement transformation

PwC can help customers transform their procurement processes using SAP technology by leveraging our extensive experience and expertise in SAP procurement solutions. We can assist in streamlining the entire procurement process from sourcing and procurement to payment and supplier management. 

Our team can help organisations improve spend visibility, supplier performance, and contract compliance. We can also help companies adopt best practices in procurement processes, such as strategic sourcing, supplier segmentation, and category management. By implementing SAP procurement solutions such as SAP Ariba and S/4HANA, PwC can help customers automate and streamline their procurement processes, increase efficiency and productivity, reduce costs, and enable better collaboration with suppliers.

PwC's approach to SAP procurement transformation is based on a deep understanding of procurement best practices, industry trends, and the latest SAP procurement solutions. PwC can help clients transform their procurement function into a strategic, value-adding function that drives business performance and enables innovation.

Connected supply chain

Thanks to major technological advances including artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things and big data, companies can squeeze much more out of their supply chains than ever before. However, managing these increasingly complicated networks can be a challenge. 

PwC can help customers transform their connected supply chain using SAP technology by leveraging our extensive experience and expertise in SAP supply chain solutions. We can assist in optimising the entire supply chain process, from planning and logistics to manufacturing and delivery, by integrating data and insights across the network.

Our team can help organisations improve supply chain visibility, agility, and resilience, enabling them to respond quickly to changing market conditions and customer demands. We can also help companies adopt best practices in supply chain processes, such as demand-driven planning, inventory optimization, and supplier collaboration. 

By implementing SAP supply chain solutions such as SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP), SAP Ariba and S/4HANA, PwC can help customers automate and streamline their supply chain processes, increase efficiency and productivity, reduce costs, and enable better collaboration with partners. 

Process mining

There are typical value extractors customers look for during a SAP S/4HANA implementation e.g. real time insights, improve efficiencies, cost reduction, compliance and risk management, streamlined finance operations and procurement optimisation. PwC focuses on extracting value quickly through process mining professionals that are business focused and technically enabled. This approach results in less time revisiting business requirements and business analysis, and provides actionable insights. A process mining platform can add value in all phases of transformations to S/4HANA and beyond.

Process mining is a key accelerator and differentiator used throughout the transformation delivery process. We use process mining to develop and visualise a complete and accurate understanding of the actual As-Is in scope processes, compare the processes between the different business units and use these insights to inform the future To-BE process design. The As-Is  highlights key controls, the effectiveness thereof and process improvement or automation opportunities. Post go-live compliance with the newly designed processes can be monitored frequently to identify potential bottlenecks and issues early on, allowing for early intervention. 

Risk and regulatory transformation

Once you’ve implemented game-changing technological solutions, you need to focus on getting the most out of your investment. We can unlock your technology to reach its potential. Our risk and regulatory compliance team can help you identify any segregation of duty conflicts, look at how to balance access controls and productivity, monitor who gets access to confidential information and more.

We'll help you choose between GROW with SAP Public Cloud and RISE with SAP Private Cloud. And we'll deliver whatever you need to get there and maximise business value.
