SAP Cloud ERP is more than a technical migration — it’s a financial transformation. As organizations move to SAP S/4HANA and RISE, contracts now extend beyond software to infrastructure, services, SLAs, and AI, increasing cost complexity and long-term financial impact.
In this session, Ferromex shares how it approached its SAP S/4HANA transition through a FinOps strategy — reviewing 46 contracts and addendums, identifying unfavorable terms, and strengthening executive readiness for negotiation. Learn how to bring transparency, financial governance, and cost control into your SAP Cloud ERP decision — and turn migration into a strategic advantage.

Key learning objectives:

  • Understand the financial impact of SAP Cloud ERP contracts — including infrastructure, services, SLAs, and AI — and why traditional license thinking no longer applies.

  • Apply a FinOps framework to SAP S/4HANA and RISE decisions to gain transparency, improve governance, and strengthen negotiation readiness.

  • Turn migration into strategic advantage by aligning IT, finance, and executive leadership around long-term cost control and value optimization.
