Syniti has announced the acquisition of Proceed Group’s Rightsizer software, a tool designed to identify archiving opportunities and determine infrastructure sizing for organisations initiating their SAP S/4HANA transformations.
The acquisition
This acquisition will extend and complement Syniti’s existing portfolio of solutions, bolstering the company’s Data First approach to digital strategy, which prioritises data initiatives at the onset of any business transformation endeavour.
Through the acquisition of Proceed Rightsizer, the company aims to enable its customers to commence data preparations at an earlier stage when embarking on SAP S/4HANA implementation projects.
During SAP migrations, businesses often require assistance in securely managing data extraction, importation and decommissioning of unnecessary legacy data to ensure compliance and operational continuity.
Early evaluation and optimisation of data enable businesses to identify what data should be archived and what can be discarded, facilitating quicker value realisation from existing data and infrastructure.
This approach establishes a solid foundation for SAP transformations, allowing businesses to focus on critical data and enhance efficiency in their operations.
The company will integrate the Rightsizer software into its Data Assessment Express offering, which furnishes customers with swift insights into their SAP data to identify challenges and opportunities.
This solution grants customers early access to pertinent data insights accompanied by recommended actions to expedite data quality enhancement, governance, analytics or migration initiatives.
“Syniti and Proceed are long time partners”
Kevin Campbell, CEO, Syniti stated: “I’ve never had a customer tell us they started their data work too early or that their data is too clean.
“This is particularly true for any business transformation project, as we have seen in the thousands of SAP migration projects that we’ve delivered on for our customers including our recent successful go-live at Bridgestone.
“We continue to see the Data First strategy proving to drive better business benefits than antiquated lift and shift approaches.”
Nick Parkin, Founder, Proceed Group commented: “Syniti and Proceed are long time partners, having worked together on many successful data projects.
“Both companies believe that maximising the value of your SAP S/4HANA transformation means getting your data in shape prior to the move.
“Rightsizer is a natural fit for Syniti’s innovative solutions and its Data First mission, which is critical towards ensuring every client is thinking about their data as a first step to delivering faster business benefits from their system implementations.”
