Syniti and IBM Help Customers Accelerate Digital Transformation Efforts

BOSTON – June 14, 2022 – Syniti today announced a new offering with IBM – the IBM Data Readiness Assessment with Syniti Knowledge Platform – to help accelerate digital transformation for their joint customers preparing to transition to SAP S/4HANA®. A key part of the BREAKTHROUGH with IBM for RISE with SAP offering is designed to help accelerate the move to SAP S/4HANA with an improved data quality assessment, as well as conversion, process optimization, and code/infrastructure modernization. The new offering helps further the common goal of accelerating digital transformations and driving continuous innovation by starting with a clean and quality data foundation.

Understanding the quality state and completeness of data prior to the move to SAP S/4HANA is key to a successful transformation effort. Customers can size the services and time required as well as help to rightsize data to optimize performance and potentially reduce spend on needed cloud infrastructure. With the Syniti Knowledge Platform as part of the IBM Data Readiness Assessment, customers benefit from:

• One platform that helps expedite projects, even those already in process, and that mitigates project risk.
• An end-to-end, comprehensive solution that reuses all the rules and content generated within the platform to help accelerate and automate the move.
• An industry-unique solution with hundreds of pre-built data quality reports
  and dashboards that identify cost savings, cashflow and P&L improvements – connecting data quality to true business outcomes.

Allan Coulter, global chief technology officer for SAP Services, IBM, said: “Our clients need to be confident that they are operating with clean, high- quality data in order to achieve a successful move to SAP S/4HANA®. Through our work with Syniti we can bring to our clients a solution that enables them to better prepare for adopting SAP S/4HANA with modernized code, process and data capabilities that drive the foundation for continuous innovation.”
