A boutique SAP S/4HANA Finance advisory practice led by Srini Murthy — twenty-nine years in SAP, 37+ implementations, 12 full-cycle programs. There is more than one road to S/4HANA, and picking the right one is the first decision of the program.
We are a boutique SAP S/4HANA Finance advisory practice. We work on ECC to S/4HANA transitions — greenfield, brownfield, and hybrid — with depth in Financials, Controlling, Analytics, and Costing, and a track record of global template delivery both on-premise and in the cloud.
Engagements are led by the architect who scoped them, not handed to a bench.
That is the point of staying small. Clients get the person who sat in the design workshops, argued the enhancement back down to standard, and owns the answer at go-live. Where a program needs more hands, we build the team around the architecture rather than the other way round.
The practice draws on a career that began outside finance — four years leading HR, change management, and innovation before the first SAP project. That grounding shows in how we run design workshops, manage stakeholders, and get business process owners to take ownership of the future state instead of outsourcing it to the system integrator.
New implementation on standard. The right call when the legacy design is itself the problem, when the business model has changed, or when reporting and regulatory demands have outgrown what the old configuration can carry.
System conversion that preserves history and configuration. Faster and cheaper where the existing design still holds — but it carries every old compromise forward, so the assessment matters more than the migration.
Convert what works, rebuild what doesn't. Usually the honest answer for large landscapes: a clean chart of accounts and new ledger design alongside retained transactional history and proven process areas.
