SAP S/4HANA

Put your SAP data to work. Modern analytics and AI on top of S/4HANA, without ripping anything out.

SAP holds your data but your teams often cannot reach it, so analysts wait on exports and AI projects stall. We build the integration and analytics layer on top of SAP using BTP and APIs, so your teams and tools reach live SAP data without copying it out.

Our platform work is delivered by senior engineers with production experience across complex, regulated enterprises. Explore the engagements behind these numbers.

AI-augmented, not AI-washed

AI on SAP data, safely

SAP data is usually locked behind interfaces, which is exactly why AI projects on it stall. We are an AI-native team, and we connect AI to governed SAP sources so answers cite real records, with your access controls intact.

See AI we have shipped in production

AI-augmented delivery

Our engineers use AI for integration flows, CDS modeling, and test coverage, and review every line themselves. Faster delivery on top of SAP, without handing judgment to a model.

Native AI where it fits, including Joule

Where SAP's own AI and Joule help your teams, we integrate them cleanly. Where they do not fit the job, we say so rather than bolt them on.

Custom AI grounded in governed SAP data

We build retrieval and natural-language query over SAP data such as POs, invoices, and master data, with permission checks preserved and no data copied out. That is the same discipline behind our production AI work for EY, Hindustan Unilever, and Booking.com.

Capabilities

Where we work in the SAP landscape

Configured to your operating model, and connected to the systems around them.

01

SAP BTP (Business Technology Platform)

BTP is SAP's extension and integration platform, and it is where most modern work on top of S/4HANA belongs. We build here so custom logic and apps sit outside the digital core, keeping S/4HANA clean and upgrade-safe.

  • Deploy side-by-side extensions on Cloud Foundry or Kyma instead of modifying standard SAP code
  • Stand up Business Application Studio, CAP services, and destinations wired to your S/4HANA system
  • Manage authentication and role mapping through the BTP subaccount, XSUAA, and your identity provider
02

Integration Suite (OData, REST, events)

Integration Suite (formerly Cloud Platform Integration) is how SAP talks to everything else. We use it to expose S/4HANA data through governed interfaces and to route messages between SAP and your non-SAP systems.

  • Build integration flows (iFlows) that read and write S/4HANA via OData and BAPIs
  • Publish and secure REST and SOAP APIs through the API Management tier with quotas and keys
  • Wire event-driven flows with Advanced Event Mesh so downstream systems react to SAP business events
03

SAP Analytics Cloud

Analytics Cloud (SAC) is SAP's native BI and planning layer with a live connection to S/4HANA. We model stories, dashboards, and planning inputs on it so finance and operations read from governed data instead of spreadsheet exports.

  • Build live models on CDS views and BW/4HANA so numbers match the source in real time
  • Design stories and dashboards for finance close, spend, and operational KPIs
  • Configure row-level data access and value-driver trees for planning and forecasting
04

Fiori and custom UIs

Fiori is SAP's UX layer, and many teams still fall back to spreadsheets where a screen is missing. We build Fiori apps and, where Fiori is the wrong tool, modern web UIs that call SAP through governed APIs.

  • Build SAPUI5 and Fiori Elements apps deployed to the Fiori launchpad on BTP
  • Create React or Next.js front ends that consume S/4HANA OData through BTP destinations
  • Close manual gaps: approval screens, data-entry forms, and role-based task lists
05

Data access (CDS views, Datasphere)

Getting at SAP data cleanly is the hard part, and CDS views are the supported way to model it without touching tables directly. We expose data through CDS and Datasphere so analytics and AI read consistent, governed semantics.

  • Author and extend ABAP CDS views to shape S/4HANA data for consumption
  • Model federated and replicated data in SAP Datasphere with lineage preserved
  • Provision governed data products to Snowflake, BigQuery, or Databricks for the wider stack
06

AI on SAP data (Joule, custom AI, RAG)

AI is only as useful as the data it can reach, and SAP data is usually locked behind interfaces. We connect language models and retrieval to governed SAP sources so answers cite real records, and we integrate with Joule where it fits.

  • Build retrieval over SAP data (POs, invoices, master data) with permission checks preserved
  • Ground models on OData and CDS outputs so responses trace back to source documents
  • Add natural-language query and summarization on top of finance and operations data

What we do with SAP S/4HANA

Where senior engineers and AI-augmented delivery add the most value

01

SAP data reachable by analytics and AI, not copied out.

We build integration on BTP and APIs so your analytics teams and AI tools reach live SAP data in place. Your data stays governed, current, and inside your perimeter.

02

Fewer manual handoffs between SAP and everything else.

Order management, billing, HR, and supply chain systems sync with SAP through maintained, event-driven integrations, so teams work from one view instead of many.

03

Interfaces your teams actually prefer.

We extend SAP with Fiori or build custom interfaces on modern web frameworks connected via APIs, so the workflow fits your team rather than the other way around.

Use cases

What we solve

Common SAP S/4HANA scenarios we take on, and what we build for each.

01

Analysts stuck waiting on exports

Teams pull SAP data into spreadsheets by hand and rebuild the same reports every month. We put a live analytics and API layer over S/4HANA so the numbers come straight from source.

02

Non-SAP systems out of sync

CRM, eCommerce, and warehouse systems drift from SAP because data moves by batch files or manual entry. We build governed integration flows so records stay consistent across systems.

03

AI blocked by locked SAP data

AI projects stall because the models cannot reach data trapped behind SAP interfaces. We expose governed access so retrieval and language models work on real records without copying data out.

04

Manual work where Fiori is missing

People fall back to email and spreadsheets wherever a Fiori screen does not exist. We build the missing apps and forms so tasks run through governed SAP APIs instead.

05

Compliance reporting done by hand

Audit, close, and regulatory reports are assembled manually from exports each cycle. We model them once on governed SAP data so they refresh with full lineage.
